Calamities in our country

For me, after we had been hitted by typhoons, many of our fellow filipino are now suffered from hunger, starvation and other diseases, lost of properties and love once. Thus, it is the time for us to help and lend a hand for them, a simple help in kind can do a lot for them, this tragedy opened my mind that as long as we have time, we must always show our love and concern not only to our love once but also to our nature as well.

recent calamities

Nowadays, there's a lot of calamities here in the Philippines, last month we encountered the strong typhoon named "ondoy", there's a thousands of families are victims of this typhoon especially in Manila, some of them, until now are in the evacuation centers, some of them can't move on and some of them have trauma. The typhoon "ondoy" was one of the huge disasters that came here in our country. Inspite of all this, we should thankful to our almighty God, because we are alive and He always beside us to guide us all the time. So we help the victims of typhoons, we share our blessings to them. =)

Calamities in our country

The most recent calamities here in the Philippines are the typhoons. Nowadays there are many typhoons left in our country the most typhoon was ONDOY, there are thousands of family victims in this typhoon that are can't survive. So let us help our kababayans here in the Philippines Looking back to previous disasters and natural calamities, our country obviously has never endeavored to be ever-prepared despite repetitive damage to so much property and numerous deaths after each occurrence. As early as some three decades ago, a funded report warned the government that “development should be restricted by the application of controls in three major areas in the Marikina Valley, the western shores of Laguna de Bay, and the Manila Bay coastal area to the north of Manila.” The report noted that “urban development is spreading into these areas which are, in their present state, unsuitable for development either because they are low-lying and liable to flooding, or because development is without adequate facilities for the treatment and disposal of sewage and so will contribute to the severe pollution of areas, such as Laguna de Bay.” What has the government had done since then? For all its greed and negligence, it allowed itself to be bribed into issuing clearances to profit-hungry developers to develop subdivisions in those areas already identified to be too dangerous for human habitation when it should have exercised resolute political will to prevent development in these inhabitable areas. And when the calamity of flooding resulted, the government was ill-prepared..
