- Ramon Tulfo is under fire for allegedly tweeting about his Phivolcs giving “no warning” about Taal Volcano’s eruption.
- Netizens tried to inform the broadcaster about Phivolcs’ continuous updates about Taal Volcano that started as early as March last year.
- A Cavite representative also blamed the agency, questioning their expertise when it comes to giving a “timely” forecast.
Television host and broadcaster Ramon Tulfo has joined the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) blame game as he ranted about the agency on his Twitter account.
In a post on his Twitter account, he said that if he were to have his way, he would execute all those who are in Phivolcs as they gave “no warning about the eruption of Taal Volcano.”

This caused a commotion among netizens as Phivolcs already raised the Taal Volcano’s status to alert level one as early as March of 2019.
Netizens repeatedly informed the broadcaster that the agency did not fail to warn people and even sent him screenshots of bulletins dated last December.

While others calmly informed Tulfo, others went on ahead by calling him an idiot.

Another netizen said that “volcanos don’t send notifications.”
Mr Tulfo, since hindi kayo marunong makitungo let me put it in language you understand: You limp-dicked fuckwit. Volcanos don't send notifications. Challenging you to a debate on any topic. All profits to Taal relief. Go deep throat a cactus. https://t.co/pNJQrkCNMf

Meanwhile, a Cavite Representative shared the same sentiment that Phivolcs did not issue enough warning about the eruption.
Representative Elpidio Barzaga Jr. urged the House committee to investigate whether the agency has the expertise and equipment to deliver a “timely” forecast regarding the matter.
