Manila is drowning again

When Maring typhoon hit Manila it drowned againt he capital city of the Philippines. It caused havoc and flooded all areas of Manila were in thousands of residents suffered. It rained hard and water from river banks immediately overflowed.

Residents from nearby canals and living near bridges were easily flushed away. Some of them manage to survive because some of them evacuated when the water was still rising. People lost their homes and shelter while others stood their ground trying to hope that the rain would stop.

The floods covered a large scale of Manila that if you look at it from an aerial view you are witnessing a drowning city. Homeless people are shivering from cold and suffering from hunger. As some of them are seeking temporary shelter were water would soon claim where they are standing.

 It was last 2009 when ONDOY caused a very destructive flood. It was one of the worse and most disturbing scene that happened.  click here to view the ONDOY tragedy.


And now it happened again after 4 years were in the city of Manila is back on that same scenario.

People lost their houses. Some of their cars and vehicles parked along the street are now submerged and filled with dirty flood. Some of them are even covered with mud and have garbage's inside.

A lot of classes and work are suspended. And volunteers and rescuers try to help others by giving them food and helping them evacuate their current location that are being harassed by flood.

I hope the government of the Philippines would do something about this. Since calamity like this would soon be experienced if their are no actions that are seriously implemented to solve it.

It was September 11,2001 when the world was shocked as one of the most powerful and influential countries around the world was stunned by the indecent. Twin Towers of America ignited by flamed from a hijacked airplane. Pentagon was also being attacked by a third airplane that was also hijacked. And because of this tragedy the United States declared war on the terrorist.

As we recall that dim and dark days were in thousands have suffered and had been apart of that chaos situation. As it was a huge threat for terrorist groups that they have the power and the supremacy to dictate. This day reminds me of that sad story were in thousand were injured.

Some died others were missing as different stories were told. But the bottom line was that everyone felt sorry for what happened. The massive casualties and civilians were involved.

In memory of those whose souls have not yet been in peace and condolence to the family and other people who have been greatly affected by the tragedy.

We all remember that bitter day were chaos was on the midst of everywhere. Innocent lives were at stake, stolen and taken away from the hands of the terrorist.

May this day be remembered as some brave people who risk there lives to save there co brothers and sisters who were victims.

Let this day be remember to those who were innocent and  capable of defying the odds of destruction. People and countrymen who tried to survive in the midst advertises. May this day be remembered and be honored to those who sacrifice in order to save others.

We will all remember this day to those people who attempt to save others even if in the middle of uncertainty. With little hope but still manage to steal and save a life. We will all remember to those individuals who bravely volunteer in the sacrifice they made.

And justice to those who are still looking for it may there soul be in heaven. And may let there be peace on earth for all the people living in it.
