Lawmakers Melinda Chan Mei Yi and Jose Pereira Coutinho yesterday urged the Meteorological and Geophysical Bureau (SMG) to review and improve its mechanism for the hoisting of typhoon signals – which comprise the No. 1, No. 3, No. 8, No. 9 and No. 10 signals.
Both directly elected legislators made the suggestions in separate oral interpellations.
