Sad. Hope when they rebuild Siargao they will use stronger materials and install window metal shutters and probably underground electric and phone lines. We cant stop typhoons but we can probably avoid getting wrecked.
If resources would allow, perhaps we can adopt "BBB" or "BUILD BACK BETTER" strategy next time in reconstructing the houses and facilities destroyed by super Typhoon Odette...We can try to employ the ff. namely :1) reinf. concrete roofs and reinf. concrete gutters to withstand the strong winds but with rounded roof shapes like domes, cones, and other four-sided roof forms like mansard-type, pyramidal and hip-type roof forms etc.. to deploy the forces of the wind at all sides, 2) use external doors and windows with steel louver shutters that can be closed during typhoons, 3) using steel and concrete construction all throughout the facility...and 4) may be using local wood just for the interiors and decorative purposes only...We pray and hope for the best for all those affected by this disastrous calamity...
I beg to disagree that it is unexpected. Typhoons are getting stronger due to climate change. We must be able to adapt to it and the world must work together to lower the earth's temperature.
Hahaha you see one person from boracay who started a business there and you blame it on them? How about the thousands of others from all over the philippines who flooded the island and build, build, build? Greed from everyone who wants to jump on the siargao train. Not only from boracay people.
As of today nature has recovered nicely. The hills are almost completely green. People are moving fast to recover but unfortunately price gouging is commonplace. DTI has closed down the more serious offenders but it's still occurring. The very poor will have a hard time recovering. Fuel prices are probably the highest in the Philippines. A liter of premium unleaded is around P76.
Yolanda and the 1000 other killer typhoons. I nearly lost family in Pablo just down the coast in Cateel. Nobody is learning much or if they are they are slow. Don't forget too though, for most, it's a hand to mouth existence. They simply don't have the income to build back better.
Pag-usapan na ng masinsinan ang climate change. Kailangang kumilos na ng masinsinan, otherwise, every strong typhoon would do this to many island provinces.
I wonder why it takes so long time till the help is coming. Duterte have already send money but were is the money now?? Do the local govn take all the money, just wondering :/

"We didn't expect" is a very dangerous phrase.
Look up "Eight Miles From Home". Some really intense footage. Pray for everyone's safety and recovery.

All the greedy transplant kooks trying to cash in on surfing brought the bad karma
@@Earthseacustomz and now the people who claim to be part of the community escaped to manila instead of helping.
@@windit5877 boracays just the metaphor for all the kooks trying cash in on surfing there
Is the whole of siargao like this?
Hopefully greedy transplants brought bad karma
The northern part of the island was the worst hit. Burgos was almost completely flattened by the winds and a tremendous storm surge.

They will rebuild and better. 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Ang tatange,they do not monitor their meteorlogist.3 days b4 Typhoon/ Hurricaine people get ready.
Cheap building materials, the walls are so thin.
I thought Filipinos would know better since Yolanda happened.
