These were the scenes last Sunday at the Floodway - Manggahan Pasig City (the flood waters already subsided a bit but still the Ortigas Avenue Extension going to Ever Gotesco - Cainta is not passable even to big buses) .I cannot imagine how it happened and where the flood waters come from.
View more pictures here! Most of the pictures here were taken by my Sony Ericsson phone (Thanks God I was able to charge it before the electricity was cut-off).
As of posting time there are already 374,890 people in the evacuation centers—NDCC and the death toll reached 293 (only those recognized and accounted for but how about the 100+ missing?) and badly needed medical assistance and reliefs.
Our place has no electricity yet since Saturday. (Buti ngayon meron na!)
Classes at all levels are suspended from Monday - Tuesday and till Wednesday for elementary and high school levels as announced today by DepEd Sec. Jesli Lapus.
I am urging everyone especially those who are not affected and capable of doing their share to help alleviate the suffering of our brothers and sisters greatly affected by this flood and in dire need of support especially food, water, clothing and medicines.
There are already a lot of relief drive being undertaken by different groups and individuals. Let's try our best to help. Thanks a lot!
This is the right time to show our 'bayanihan'. God Bless the Philippines!
