Theft, vandalism in school used as temporary shelter

MANILA, Philippines – Although the destruction caused by tropical storm “Ondoy” has turned hundreds of ordinary people into heroes, there are some who have chosen to “act like beasts.”
Social Welfare Secretary Esperanza Cabral criticized Wednesday some flood victims for what she described as their “less than human” behavior as she recounted a story told to her by Muntinlupa Mayor Aldrin San Pedro about one of the schools in his city which was being used as an evacuation center.
Classes resumed at the school on Monday although some 1,000 families remain on campus.
Cabral said San Pedro told her that they had to post guards at the school’s toilets after several students were robbed by some men while they were using the facilities.
The robbers then eluded arrest by mingling with evacuees.
“Gawain ba iyan ng matinong tao [Is that the act of a decent human being]? That’s less than human,” said Cabral who attended a forum organized by the Philippine College of Physicians.
“Someone should remind them [that] they’re not the only victims. They should not use this situation as an excuse to act like beasts,” she added.
The Philippine Daily Inquirer called up San Pedro who confirmed the robbery incidents. However, he declined to identify the school where these took place.
He said that before the school was turned into an evacuation area, its officials padlocked one of the buildings on campus as a precaution.
The principal later told San Pedro that when they conducted an inspection in preparation for the resumption of classes on Monday, they found out that someone had forcibly opened all the classrooms in the building.
They were even more dismayed when they discovered that the classrooms had been turned by evacuees into toilets.
In addition, someone had stolen eight of the building’s 10 ceiling fans.
Worse, robbers had forcibly opened teachers’ tables and stolen the money in their drawers.
“The principal was very upset. I told her that the city government would pay back the money that was stolen from the teachers,” San Pedro told the Inquirer.
Cabral, meanwhile, noted that some people have been taking advantage of the situation caused by Ondoy by jacking up the prices of essential commodities like bottled water.
“It is plain that there are certain conditions where government will not be able to do everything,” Cabral admitted.
She said that government relief efforts being spearheaded by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) were not enough to reach as many affected families in the soonest possible time

Parang zombie na umarte ung iba sa mga yan. Kaya kami pinadala nalang namin ung mga binigay. We were just being true to ourselves, baka mamaya instead makatulong kami pa humingi ng tulong.

Ung kay Mel di ko alam kung ano gusto nyang mangyari, baka ginagaya lang si Willie. Kasi alam ko ganyan din ginawa nya dahil pag bumaba pa ng konti ung chopper hinahangin ung mga nasa baba so ginagawa nila binabato nalang.

Don't Distribute Relief Goods Yourself

Forgot to post the second part of the article...

...He also said a similar incident happened to the ABS-CBN crew who went to Barangay Maysilo.

“Some people who got cooked eggs threw them back at the crew, accusing them of taking too long in distributing the goods. So much food was wasted in this incident. The group had to withdraw from the area,” Padua said.

That incident was what really earned my disgust, wasting the food that should've gone to empty stomachs.

Tignan mo nga naman ung mga tao na un, sila na nga tinutulungan sila pa makapal mukha magalit? Pasalamat nga sila nagtitiis ung mga volunteers. Kung alam lang nila kung gano kabaho kadumi sa area nila.

[[archie]]

nagdonate kami ng konti na meron kami para sa victims... pero now, parang naiisip ko na sayang yung pera kung tatapon lang nila. ayaw ko na tumulong kung gaganayin lang nila.

Yup, chaos are everywhere especially in those schools-turned evacuation centers . . . blackboards were ripped off & used (and destroyed) as beds, ceiling fans & faucets stolen, books burned for cooking, utility rooms used as toilets, and students going to the CR had to be guarded due to reported cases of extortions committed by some evacuees.

Sa mga iskwater, wag na sanang mag-asal iskwater pa. Kayo na nga itong tinutulungan tapos ganito pa ang igaganti niyo?!

Sana inanod na ng baha ang mga PI mga squatters na ito.......

School pinagnakawan na, ginawa pang CR.


Doble pasakit ang inabot ng principal at mga guro sa kanilang eskwelahan na matapos gawing evacuation center ay pinagnakawan, pinagsisira ang mga upuan at ginawang palikuran ang bubong nito sa Marikina City.

Ayon kay Ms. Rosario Diaz, principal ng Nangka Elementary School, halos panghinaan sila ng kalooban nang matuklasan na ang kanilang eskwelahan, na bukod sa nalubog din sa tubig-baha, ay pinagnakawan pa ng mga kagamitan, sumabog ang kuryente, sira-sira at ginawang panggatong ang mga upuan at ang pinakamasaklap ay ginawang palikuran ang bubungan ng eskwelahan dahil sa nakitang mga tambak na dumi ng tao.

Kabilang sa mga kagamitang ninakaw umano ay ang kanilang mga electric fan, cabinet ng mga guro na may lamang mahahalagang teaching materials at mga mono block chairs.

Bukod dito ay wala na rin umano silang kuryente matapos sumabog nang mag-overload ito dahil sa pagsasamantala umanong gamitin ng mga evacuees sa pagsaksak ng kanilang mga electric appliances tulad ng rice cooker, electric fan at sabay-sabay na pag-charge ng mga cellphone.

“Kahit ang mga bulletin board namin kinuha rin, ginawa nilang tulugan, ang mga visual aids ng mga guro, ang mga upuan, kahon ng mga bata na mga bagong pa naman, ang ginawa kinahoy nila at ginawang panggatong,” pahayag ng punong guro ng paaralan.

Subalit sa kabila nito ay buong pagpapakumbaba pa ring nakikiusap si Ms. Diaz, na sana ay ibalik ang kanilang mga electric fan at mga cabinet, dahil sa mahahalagang gamit ang laman nito sa pagtuturo ng mga guro. “Hindi naman natin nilalahat ang mga evacuees, marami pa rin naman ang nakakaintindi at tumutulong, siguro lang may iba talagang mga loko,” ayon pa sa principal.

Sa ngayon naman ay malinis na ang nasabing eskwelahan at marami rin umano ang mga tumulong sa paglilinis.

screwed up talaga ang race natin.

[roninblade]

screwed up talaga ang race natin.

di naman siguro totally. more like... uneducated lang karamihan, or di maayos ang upbringing, kaya low to no moral values kaya ganyan ang mga ugali.

[C#@RD]

That's where our taxes are being spent.

Dapat talaga if your legal age and not paying taxes you don't have the right to vote. Kasi pabigat ka lang sa republic. mga skwaters pa ang malalakas mag anak ng anak ang kakapal ng mukha kasi nakaka kuha sila ng tulong sa gobyerno.

At least yung pera na binabayad ng tax payers napupunta din sa tax payers. Hindi dapat ginagastos ang hard earned money natin every payday sa mga taong walang utang na loob na tinutulungan na binababoy pa yung schools at mga social workers.

Removing their right to vote eliminates the cycle na ginagamit lang sila ng politicians for their votes kasi sila ang majority ng pilipinas.

To be honest ang middle class ang nagsusuporta sa pilipinas. hindi ang mayayaman kasi sila madadaya magbayad ng tax(ex lucio tan). tayo as a regular employee automatic deducted siya sa monthly income natin whether you like it or not.

[Horsepower]

Actually, yung mga nasa NCR lang naman na uneducated ang ganyan kasamá kung umasal.

Sa Provinces (at least those I've been into), matitino naman mga tao kahit hindi nakapag-aral.

nami-miss ko tuloy mga tao sa Camiguin Island...grabe sobrang bait talaga ng mga tao don when I was there last month.

[Horsepower]

actually c#*rd, lahat tayo di makatakas sa tax. Lahat ng binibili natin taxed e.

kaya sinama ko sa post ko yung "di maayos ang upbringing". kasi, generally, mas matino ang upbringing ng kids sa provinces compared dito sa ncr where the focus is more on survival and making money.

When I went to Hyundai QA today to pick up my Santa Fe (repairs for scratches) I saw this brutal sight. Makes me very sad indeed!

[tidus1203]

As good as dead I am afraid!




Seats filled with mud





CRDi 4WD pa naman...

[straker]

Sa mga taong asal hayup, dapat sa Manila zoo, Malabon zoo, at sa ibang zoo ang relocation center nila...

Correction...they should be the ones floating and rotting.

[OldSchoolHack]

They live in easements and under bridges which threaten their lives and cause pollution and clogging of floodways.

Kailangan talaga matanggal mga nag iskwatter sa tabing ilog, creek, etc.

Since we all know what the current government does (hmmmm...close to nil) about this, I wonder what the candidates will do. Say what Noynoy Aquino will do. Does he have the balls to root them out of these areas? O lame duck like the rest? Silent marami sa kanila.

Post-Ondoy might be as gloomy as it was before Ondoy.
