Update:

From Jeric Sevilla, Head of Corporate Communications of Manila Water:

With the exception of the flooded areas of San Mateo, Rodriguez, Pasig, Taytay, Angono, Binangonan and Marikina, potable water supply continues to be available from the taps of 90% of the residents of the East Zone under Manila Water.

18 water tankers have been mobilized to provide water supply to those areas in San Mateo and San Rafael in Rodriguez, Rizal.

While laboratory results meet the parameters of the DOH and Philippine National Standards for Drinking Water, the public is advised to boil their water especially in areas that were flooded and whose internal plumbing systems may be leak-prone to avoid contamination.

Update:

ADVISORY: Price Watch Palace deputy presidential spokesman Prof. Gary Olivar reminds the public to watch for the prices of food in wet and dry markets and report any incident of overpricing to 0917-806-3473, the DTI hotline. He also urges the public to avoid spreading false information in times of crisis especially those that will create fear and panic.

Update:

Death toll has reached to over 100 and still rising. Many more are still missing.

Update:

Bagyo Ondoy has brought heavy rains yesterday to many parts of Manila. Flooded the streets, sunken cars and houses, and even brought death. Such a calamity to all who lived there, those who didn’t know and the innocent. Many people have died because of it and many left homeless.

If you check out the videos, you’ll see the calamity of it all. You can see some people who are standing in floating debris over a flash flood – quite terrible.

You can check out the related videos of Bagyo Ondoy at YouTube. Check out also this video posted on Facebook by one of the victims. http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=281979720576

All rescue efforts are being made and donations are pouring in to several donation centers. If you want to help, you can probably contact one of the government agencies or best yet start your own group and help in the rescue effort. You could also try to google up about groups who would be helping.

While a lot of people are grieving and all so worried about the people who are suffering from this calamity. One stands

to even mock at the one’s who died. I was looking into one of my favorite online communities and discovered this horrible person. Apart from that fashion designer, then the UP cat killer, the Chinese girl who commented about the earthquake, and Mr. Chip Tsao. She comes along with this statement.

Very terrible person even mocking the people who are suffering. I wonder if she’ll get punished with what she is doing. A screenshot was made at Facebook when someone saw this. A Facebook group was also started against this person. You may join if you wish. It is really annoying to find such persons in this world. Laughing at the people who are suffering. She didn’t even think what if it happened to her area. In line with this, a person in the online community/forum posted this http://imgur.com/pvx3c.jpg And wow! That person must be really angry to have made this.

Subscribe to us if you would like to receive updates on ow to help in this calamity. I shall be looking for solutions and I’ll be posting them here.
