His ‘statement’ comes as netizens tag him over the unusual coincidence.
Oriental Mindoro Vice Governor and actor Ejay Falcon took to social media on Saturday to air his piece over the names of two consecutive cyclones this month. The first one being ‘Egay,’ and now ‘Falcon’. The said order of names has driven netizens online to jokingly think that Ejay has something to do with this.
But Ejay, who is a sport and joined in on the joke, said that he has nothing to do with it and he is not related to the two cyclones. On a serious note, he said that people must prepare and keep safe amidst the inclement weather.
A piece of trivia, the names ‘Egay’ and ‘Falcon’ had been in use by PAGASA for 20 years already. Which means that they have been employed to name cyclones in the years 2003, 2007, 2011, 2015, and recently, 2019.
