RAPID ASSESSMENT for MARKET REPORT (Panay Island, Philippines, Typhoon Haiyan November 2013) RAPID ASSESSMENT FOR MARKET REPORT (Panay Island, Philippines, Typhoon Haiyan November 2013) Report Author: Ma. Rowena D. Balino Position/ Job Title: DME Team Leader/ RAM Focal Person RAM team members and positions: Christopher Leones, Monitoring & Evaluation Specialist Visminda D. Cabasan, DME Specialist Report date: 29 November 2013 Agency World Vision Section 1: Shock and needs analysis summary Type(s) of shock: Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda Date(s) of shock(s): November 8, 2013 Date of RAM assessment: November 23-27, 2013 Affected areas assessed: Panay Island: Iloilo, Capiz, Aklan, Antique Areas covered by World Vision Total population in affected area: 315,237 households or 2,309,292 total population (Number of households and people) Affected population within affected area: 299,387 households or 1,453,325 total population 28,167 World Vision registered families or 140,835 population (Number of households and people) Average Household size: 5 (National Statistics Coordination Board) (Source of information) Location of affected population: Some are internally displaced, others have returned to their homes in the provinces of Iloilo, Capiz, Aklan, Antique (IDP/ stationary in homes etc…) Markets assessed: Iloilo: Iloilo City, Estancia, Barotac Viejo Capiz: Roxas City, Aklan: Batan, Kalibo, Altavas Antique: Bugasong, Laua-an, Barbasa (Areas selected are within World Vision covered areas, based on Purposive Sampling) Number of traders (wholesalers and retailers) 4 Regional Wholesalers (Iloilo City) and market representatives included in 23 Wholesalers assessment: 65 Retailers 8 Households for Key Informant Interview 21 Households for 2 Focus Group Discussions Rapid Assessment for Markets in World Vision covered areas in Panay Island, Philippines Commodity type(s), volume(s) and duration Rice requested by shock-affected population Canned sardines (quantity, frequency and duration and any quality Laundry soap specifications if necessary) GI Sheets Commodity Quantity Frequency Duration Specification Rice Kilogram Daily 2 weeks White Rice Canned Sardines Can Daily 2 weeks 155 grams/5 ounces Laundry Soap Bar (4 cuts) Daily 2 weeks 400 grams GI Sheets Sheet Once Max 15 years Gauge 26 Scope of Assessment: The assessment focused only on four commodities – two for food, one for shelter and one for hygiene. The specific commodities whose markets were assessed are rice, canned sardines, laundry soap and GI sheets. These are selected based on the order of importance. Rice and canned sardines are the most feasible food since the affected areas experienced damaged rice paddies, uprooted fruit trees, vegetable gardens, livestock and source of sea food (especially for Estancia, Iloilo because of the oil spill). Laundry soap is seen as a key commodity for hygiene because of its “all around use” as bath soap and shampoo substitute as well as for washing dishes and clothes. Almost all of the houses in the affected areas have torn roofs, hence the GI sheet is in high demand. The assessment was conducted in World Vision areas in the island of Panay. This covers the four provinces of Aklan, Antique, Capiz, and Iloilo with 27 municipalities, 1 city, and 162 barangays. Through purposive sampling, from the four provinces, the markets of affected areas at the municipality levels were assessed using Key Informant Interviews with the wholesalers and retailers. The team also conducted Key Informant Interviews at the regional level markets in Iloilo City. These markets are supply to the provincial markets who consequently supply to the city and municipal markets. In this assessment, Iloilo City and Iloilo province are treated separately. Ilolilo City is the hub of trade and commerce for the whole Panay Island. While Iloilo, is the province where the affected World Vision areas are located. Time and manpower constraints influenced the decision to use Purposive Sampling. Table 1.

Generally, supplies are still available, except that during the first few days after the shock, because of obstructions in transportation and cancelled shipping schedules the flow of supplies temporarily stopped. However, in a week’s time, the flow of these particular commodities to the retailers down to the barangay level went back to normal. It is noteworthy that markets in the municipalities of Ajuy, Concepcion, Sara, and Estancia for the GI sheets, canned sardines, and laundry soap have partially functioning markets as of writing. Among the four commodities, the GI sheets is the only one with Iloilo City as the source, where the shipping from NCR (National Capital Region) arrives. 6 Rapid Assessment for Markets (RAM) in Panay Island, Philippines Typhoon Haiyan “Yolanda” Emergency Response World Vision 2.2 Commodity market maps The commodity market maps below illustrate the movements of key commodities to the markets near the affected populations – from wholesaler to trader and finally to consumer. 2.2.1 Market System Map for Rice (baseline map) 2.2.2 Market System Map for Rice after the shock (shock map) Rapid Assessment for Markets in World Vision covered areas in Panay Island, Philippines 2.2.3 Market System Map for Canned Sardines and Laundry Soap (baseline map) 8 Rapid Assessment for Markets (RAM) in Panay Island, Philippines Typhoon Haiyan “Yolanda” Emergency Response World Vision 2.2.4 Market System Map for Canned Sardines and Laundry Soap after the shock (shock map) 2.2.5 Market System Map for GI Sheets (baseline map) Rapid Assessment for Markets in World Vision covered areas in Panay Island, Philippines 2.2.6 Market System map for GI Sheets after the shock (shock map) Section 3: Market maps and trader analysis After reviewing the maps (above) and information collected using the RAM tools, the following conclusions can be made: 1. The impact of the shock on physical access of the affected population to their markets. (Outline the impact of the shock on market access – what has changed in consumer and trader behaviour? Are such changes long term?) Market access has been negatively affected right after the shock and for more than a week because of road obstructions brought about by debris from massive fallen trees, electric posts and wires. The most common damage in dwellings and buildings are blown away roofing broken walls that include warehouses and marketplaces. Some shopping stalls in President Roxas, Capiz and Estancia, Iloilo Public Markets were still closed during the data gathering. There are a number of traders in Barotac Viejo, Iloilo who have not yet resumed to their usual business activities. The common preoccupation of businessmen and traders are cleaning up and repairing their business establishments. 10 Rapid Assessment for Markets (RAM) in Panay Island, Philippines Typhoon Haiyan “Yolanda” Emergency Response World Vision It was observed that the demand was unusually low after the shock, especially in affected areas. People buying for their needs from the market have significantly decreased. This was because of the bulk of relief goods received by the affected families from the aid agencies. Based on the first hand information gathered by the team, it can be projected that the marketplaces, accessibility and supply can resume between a month or two. For the consumer behaviour, it is foreseen that when the distributed relief goods are consumed, demand will dramatically increase in all affected areas in Panay Island. This can happen in a month’s time. 2. Affected household purchasing power/ demand and changes in consumer behaviour. (Does the shock-affected population have the financial means to purchase the food and non-food commodities they need? If so, what percentage/ proportion of their needs can they meet themselves? Relate to information collected in Step 1 of the RAM) After the shock, affected families could hardly purchase by themselves even 25% of the basic needs such as food, including safe drinking water, clothing, supplies for school-age children, and building materials to repair their houses. There has been an average of 45% decrease of the number of people coming to the marketplace.

    Mangrove and Beach Forest Rehabilitation and Conservation Zoological Society of London Established in 1826, the Zoological Society of London is a centre of excellence for conservation science and is devoted to the worldwide conservation of animals and their habitats. It realizes its mission by carrying out field conservation and research in over 50 countries across the globe and works to encourage positive behavior change through dissemination of key conservation messages through its two zoos, ZSL London and ZSL Whipsnade Zoos. ZSL-Philippines is now considered the national authority on mangrove conservation, having implemented in-situ rehabilitation projects; developed science-based mangrove planting protocols and methods; research and knowledge dissemination on mangrove reversion of abandoned, unproductive and unutilized fishponds; and national level policy advocacy on fishpond reversion and restoration of coastal greenbelts. In the aftermath of Typhoon Yolanda, ZSL’s expertise on mangrove restoration has been sought by all sectors in the country- government, private and socio-civic non-government organizations. Turing Foundation The Turing Foundation is a Netherlands-based private charity established in 2006. It seeks to promote and encourage a sustainable and respectful relationship with nature. Respect is in the interest of nature itself. Sustainability ensures that the needs of present generations can be met, without reducing the possibilities of future generations to fulfill theirs. In trying to achieve these aims, the Turing Foundation limits its scope to the protection and sustainable management of the nurseries of the sea in developing countries, the areas in seas and along coasts that have the highest concentration of life and biodiversity, and sustainable organic agriculture and cattle breeding (in developing countries in Africa).

The report features the Bureau’s significant contributions through various reforms and programs in exercising its mandate of prudently and proactively managing the Government’s financial resources. On behalf of the officials and employees of the Bureau, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the President for the support and trust in our pursuit of fiscal management objectives.
