after the storm
Sunday, December 3, 2006typhoon reming mercifully spared the metro last friday, veering southwards but wreaking havoc in bicolandia, batangas, marinduque, mindoro and romblon before heading out to sea.
it caused the most damage in bicol, however, where the heavy rains caused mudflows from mt. mayon's slopes. at this time, about 400 people are confirmed dead or missing in the areas devastated by reming. it's far worse than milenyo ever was.
and i'm thankful that it spared manila.

here's a photograb from the abs-cbn news website, showing bodies retrieved from the mudflow in albay. there are several more missing.
i pray for those who were affected.
