eto mas madali maintindihan (KUNG BABASAHIN SANA).

This morning I was asked: “why not just tell your Government to move out all those people there. You see in the news all dead people around?” I told him it is difficult because there are just too many people affected.

Put them in camps, he said. We have evacuation centers but still not enough, I said. It is very easy, he pushed, put them in airplanes and boats then send to camps. I asked, “Did you know the place well? Heck, have you even seen how the islands look like?” He smiled and said, “NO”.

So this is how I made him understand.

I showed him this map of my country. My hometown is at number 15. The areas affected are roughly from numbers 32 to 53; can you see those islands and how far they are?

Yes, we can fly people by plane but airports are broken and no electricity. Yes, we can take them by boat, but the docking areas are full of debris and dead people. How can we shift them to the next island, if the other island is also in ruins? To this he just smiled and said: “oh yah, huh”

For most who don’t know, my country is made out of 7,100 islands, give or take. Number 21 is where the command center is and where most goods and resources are coming from. They fly and ship them to the areas affected, that means logistics is really a challenge.

Things are easier said than done, for most of us who are not there, directly involved. Easier for us to say “what the hell are they doing?” “where are the donations made?”.

By watching the news, reading the paper and social media updates, OUR knowledge is empowered and magnified. Our words and comments become swords that draw blood, ignite more pain and hurt to those people who are already giving all their best to help.

Help us more not only by making donations but also by understanding why things cannot be done as easily as how we think it will be.

Bat ako mag dodonate, sa expertise ko pang sa disaster recovery and relief operation eh ang laking tulong na. Parehas kami ni Cooper, satsat lang eh laking tulong na. Tingnan mo nung nag simula kaming mamuna, biglang bumilis ang kilos ng National Government.

O diba? Winner!

On serious a note were doing our share to help here in the province through school naman ang daan ng donations dito. Last thing I won't do is criticize this Government who doing their best with what they got, good thing we're getting a ton of help from our foreign friends specially US.

imo, ok na yang mga epal epal na yan, at least me donsyon sila.
kesa sila lang makinabang eh bigyan na lang nila mga
naapektuhan ng bagyo kahit puro mukha or pangalan pa nila
nakakatatak sa mga relief goods.

I was not surprised kung bakit humaba ma yung topic na ito ng ganun kabilis, nagbabangayan na naman pala mga tsikoteers...

Ang masasabi ko lang ay maraming salamat sa mga tumulong at patuloy na tumutulong..salamat din sa mga patuloy na pumipintas sa mga nagsisikap tumulong..

Ipinanganak ako sa eastern samar at nakapag-asawa ng taga Leyte..Tacloban ang nagsilbing tahanan sa loob ng mahigit limang taon noung akoy nag-aaral at nakapagtrabaho..bawat iskinita sa syudad na ito ay nakatatak sa aking ala-ala at napakasakit isipin ang sinapit nito...nalibot ko ang buong isla ng samar at leyte at marami rami rin akong isla na narating..Kahit sa ordinaryong panahon ay hindi madali mapuntahan ang mga ito, lalo pa kaya sa oras ng kalamidad..

Instead of barking on a wall, why not open your lips and clasp your palms in your chest and pray for those who died and striving to survive...i still believe that prayers make miracles..my family and relatives were spared..

Ha ngatanan nga nagpaabot hin bulig ano man nga klase ngan pag-ampo, damo nga salamat haiyo, an Ginoo magbalos haiyo.(For all those who etended their help of any kind and offered their prayers, thank you very much. God will bless you!)

TINDOG LEYTENOS! TINDOG SAMARNON!

The truth is, to be fair with pagasa 3-4 days before the landfall, paulit-ulit na nila sinabi na mataas yun storm surge and Pnoy spoke on prime time TV to about the intensity of the coming typhoon. Even weather forecasters ng mga news sinabi ilan meters ang tubig na papasok

Ang Sabi sa field sinabihan nila mga Tao, pinagtawanan lang ng mga residents doon...sanay daw sila sa typhoon...it was explained to them kaso mayayabang...ayan tuloy! Nakahanap sila ng dahilan...alam mo naman pinoy mags king sa palusot...dapat daw tsunami sinabi hinde storm surge, but from what I under dates pagasa cant change the specific term ng mga ganyan. They can't say storm surge to tsunami and vice versa.

100% sure ako na yun mga namatay doon sa coastal barangays yun mga mayayabang na sanay daw kuno sa typhoon

since marami tayong kababayan na hindi nakatapos ng pag aaral esp. sa mga provinces, sana in layman terms ang pag inform sa public.
mas naiintidihan kung nakikita kesa sa sinasabi.
like, ipaintindi via visual kung gaano ka lakas ang isang hangin or ulan.

"With a massive storm surge, plus with the increadibly strong winds...you have to wonder how they are going to survive this..."

Sanay na kami sa bagyo, Bahala na ang diyos...

pakisabi kay Failon na amBOBO nya. kung hindi nya maintindihan e di isearch nya kay GOOGLE tapos ireport nya sa mga tao.
putak sya ng putak na hindi daw pinaliwanag ni PNOY kung ano ang storm surge e sya itong newscaster, hay naku! :D

eto galing kay google:
A storm surge is an offshore rise of water associated with a low pressure weather system, typically tropical cyclones and strong extratropical cyclones.

Same here, kaya lame excuse yung tsunami dapat sinabi.

Kapap telenovela wala mintis sa detalye, storm surge na at sinabing isa sa pinakamalakas na bagyo hindi pa din initindi nang karamihan. Tawanan ka pa.
