Typhoon Pablo victims receive donation from Cebuana Lhuillier

 

 

Reaffirming its dedication of being a reliable microinsurance partner, Cebuana Lhuillier Insurance Solutions, Inc. (CLIS) continues to manifest its commitment “may malasakit” by paying out claims outside its insurance coverage to typhoon victims.

 

Cebuana Lhuillier officers organized an Alagang Cebuana Plus (ACP) claims cash aid payout at the Multi-Purpose Hall, Brgy. Trento, Agusan del Sur. The event was intended to benefit Cebuana Lhuillier customers who availed of ACP and whose houses were either washed out or damaged by typhoon Pablo last December 4. Although claims cases due to floods are not covered by ACP, Cebuana Lhuillier President and CEO Jean Henri Lhuillier readily agreed to CLIS’ financial assistance program to address the needs of the typhoon victims. For every Certificate of Cover (COC) availed by a customer, a corresponding cash amounting to Php 500 was given as financial aid. The customers can claim up to a maximum of five COCs or Php 2,500 per household. A total of Php 157,000 was handed out to 137 households.

 

The event was graced by Trento Mayor John Mark Billanes and Brgy. Poblacion Councilor Tessie Antonio and was supported by CLIS General Manager Jonathan Batangan, Regional Manager Eduardo Flores together with other officers of Cebuana Lhuillier.

Ambassador Lhuillier visits Filipino crew of damaged chemical tanker in Lisbon

 

 

The Philippine Embassy in Lisbon, Portugal headed by Philippine Ambassador to Portugal and PJLI Chairman Philippe Lhuillier visited the 13 Filipino crew members on board the damaged chemical tanker MT Harbour Krystal to provide assistance and counselling.

 

According to the report of the Maritime Rescue Coordinating Center (MRCC) Lisbon to the Embassy, the 11,262 dwt (dead weight tonnage) Bahamas-flagged chemical tanker owned by Nordic Tankers of Denmark suffered an explosion in the early morning of March 06 in the forward compartment of the ship while it was anchored in the Port of Setubal in Portugal. The explosion caused a huge fire in the ship carrying a cargo of light virgin flammable liquid called Naptha.

 

The Filipino crew shared their frightening experiences during the incident to Ambassador Lhuillier and narrated how they survived.

 

 

The accident which happened 30 miles south of Lisbon as the ship was sailing from Port de Bouc in France to Amsterdam left one Filipino seafarer missing after the blast. Despite extensive search operations conducted by Portuguese maritime and air units, the Filipino seaman remains missing.

 

Spearheaded by Ambassador Lhuillier, the Embassy team checked on the condition of the crew. Some of them exhibited signs of trauma and complained of not being able to sleep since the incident happened. With the help of Third Secretary and Vice Consul Rogelio Villanueva Jr., the team comforted and assured the survivors that their safety and well-being remains to be the priority of the Philippine Government.

 

The Embassy team returned to the ship the following day with a Lisbon-based Filipino priest, Rev. Fr. Jovito Osalvo who officiated a mass. Prayers were offered for the crew’s emotional and spiritual healing, especially for the missing Filipino seafarer.

 

Through the help of the embassy, the Filipino crew were granted shore leave and free transportation on March 10 to attend a mass with the Filipino Community at the Igreja do Corpo Santo in Lisbon. Ambassador Lhuillier assured the Filipino crew that the embassy will continue to look after their welfare in coordination with the ship owner and their manning agency.

In 2011, typhoon Sendong, the deadliest storm to hit the Philippines in 14 years, brought most of its destructive wind and rain in Northern Mindanao, particularly in Iligan City. Two years after the devastation, storm victims from the far-flung areas of Iligan City still cry for help.

 
In answer to this call, P.J. Lhuillier Foundation, Inc. (PJLFI), the social responsibility arm of Cebuana Lhuillier, donated Php 204,000.00 to the distressed families in Sitios Panoroganan and Kalilangan in Iligan City which will be used to build 12 new homes. An act which significantly represents the Foundation’s 12 years of providing true and incomparable service to the Filipinos.

 
PJLFI Chairman and Ambassador in the Philippines to Portugal Philippe J. Lhuillier, as represented by Cebuana Lhuillier President and CEO Jean Henri D. Lhuillier and PJLFI Executive Trustee Atty. Cesar R. Vidal, turned over the check to Mr. Arturo B. Diago, Corporate Services Executive Vice President at Directories Philippines Corporation, on behalf of Our Lady of Fatima Parish in Iligan City. The parish oversees the construction of the houses and a multi-purpose gym in the affected barangays.
