Quezon City is among the world’s largest cities that will be exposed to severe flooding and drought. But families residing in urban poor communities like Tatalon are not getting sufficient help.
Citizens have captured images of the flooding caused by Tropical storm #MarioPH (Fung-Wong) in different parts of the National Capital Region.
Floods worsened in Davao region and Caraga region (Davao del Norte, Davao Oriental and Compostela Valley) since this weekend following days of continuous rains.
“The P10-billion (US$ 228 m) pork barrel re-channeled to fake NGOs should have been used instead for an P8.3-billion restoration project for our country’s mangrove forest cover and almost four year’s worth of community-based disaster preparedness and response programs costing at least P2 billion.” – Kalikasan-PNE
