How does the President respond to the emergency?

The President declared the valley holy ground to consecrate the land for the many who simply disappeared. He also said that Bishops would be sent to say a mass for the dead. In addition, he proclaimed that anyone caught stealing would be shot on sight.

"...... the country was in mourning; sister nations had offered aid; he had ordered a state of siege; the Armed Forces would be merciless, anyone caught stealing or committing other offenses would be shot on sight. He added that it was impossible to remove all the corpses or count the thousands who had disappeared; the entire valley would be declared holy ground, and bishops would come to celebrate a solemn mass for the souls of the victims."
