MANILA, Philippines — In the spirit of sympathy, Christmas lights in courts nationwide will be turned off and calamity aid has been readied for affected personnel due to Typhoon Odette, the Supreme Court said.

 

“In sympathy and in the spirit of the season, the Justices have decided to turn off all Christmas lights in all courts nationwide and in their official residences in Baguio City, until power supply is restored in the typhoon-affected areas,” the SC said in a statement on Wednesday.

 

The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council in its latest report said 239 localities reported power outages or interruption due to the powerful typhoon.
