More likely those who died were homeless people.

I happened to listen to some of their stories during an outreach program back when we were based overseas. Grabe rin conditions sa homeless shelters minsan (gangs & drugs) so at times they'd rather sleep under a bridge or on the streets.

OT na pero comment ko lang:
Mabuti pa rin dito sa `Pinas na may "final safety net" ng family network as a last resort. If by some mishap you suffer a sudden catastrophic economic loss, kahit papaano, may kamaganak ka pa rin na maawa (siguro naman) at tutulong.
