You people are suffering because you vote for incompetent and corrupt government officials!
Why are they treating these people as expendables? Tell me!
So sad. Is this is going to be the new "normal"?
The Govt never helps! What the heck were they thinking? Humans help each other. It's always been like that. Yet, there are plenty who can afford drugs.Dude! They have an airport. Some places don't even have airports. 🤷🏻Oh! I totally forgot that Al Jazeera has reporters with Victim Mentality. 😮
🙏🙏🙏Har har mahadev🙏🙏🙏
Meanwhile in America, we have hundreds of water bottle Capitolist distributors creating massive plastics and calling it smart, it's a human liberal choice consume anything over minimalist necessaties. In America it's cool and ok to be obese just look for a xxL store lmao. Hope they get enough water to drink,y brother passed away from dehydration it is not a joke, it is our fucken part life.
😭 Sorry for your loss of life, Philippines. Stay strong🙏
how is this news ? Typhoons happen all the time in the Philippines….has been for a thousand years.Filipinos should learn by now how to build their infrastructure to withstand typhoons, or at least build it in a way that they can recover fast. Why hasn't this happened ?
I pray they get the help they needChristmas in 3 days
praying for your survival
