RIP: Raymundo Punongbayan, PHIVOLCS

From Inq7.net:
Former Phivolcs head Raymundo Punongbayan was with four Phivolcs staff, two pilots, and two crewmembers, when their US-made Bell UH-1H helicopter crashed near Gabaldon town. (breaking story here)

I remember former director Punongbayan predicted the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo in 1991. During that time, only a few took heed from his warnings. It was only when Mt. Pinatubo erupted on July 1991 that everyone started believing what he says.
