OUTGOING Sen. Richard Gordon on Wednesday, June 15, called on Filipinos to reminisce about the lessons taught by the Mount Pinatubo eruption in the current Bulusan Volcano ordeal.

Gordon, who served as mayor of Olongapo City when Mount Pinatubo erupted in June 1991, said that if his former constituents were able to recover from the ordeal, then the residents of Sorsogon could do the same.
