Aldwin Cejo, officer-in-charge of the Laguna Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office, said local officials are still assessing if there is a need to put the whole province under a state of calamity.
As of Sunday, floods have subsided but parts of Laguna still do not have water and electricity supply. Some residents remain in evacuation centers, Cejo added.
The Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao was also placed under a state of calamity due to massive flooding.
The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) has recommended the declaration of a national state of calamity for a year due to the weather disturbance.
NDRRMC Chairperson Jose Faustino Jr. on Sunday said the agency's official resolution was on its way to President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr.
Marcos said he will review the resolution from the NDRRMC.
After ravaging parts of the country over the weekend, Paeng is expected to exit the country's weather monitoring area by Monday, according to the latest bulletin from the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration.
