Help the Philippines

Several strong typhoons battered the Philippines, especially Luzon, and caused billions of casualties through the typhoons Quinta (international name, Molave), Rolly (international name, Goni), and Ulysses (international name, Vamco). I know my account isn’t that big but I hope I could help spread awareness about my country’s situation in any platform I have.

#QuintaPH

A total of 242,220 residents or 57,742 families from 1,008 barangays in Central Luzon, Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Western and Eastern Visayas were affected by Typhoon Quinta. Of the total affected, 65,579 persons or 16,830 families sought refuge in evacuation centers. Cost of damage to agriculture and infrastructure has also risen to ₱737.1 million, with Calabarzon bearing the highest cost worth ₱593.1 million. Typhoon Quinta partially destroyed 27,213 houses while 2,315 others were totally damaged. At least 330 passengers remain stranded in the different ports of Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Bicol Region, Western and Eastern Visayas. (source: CNN)

#RollyPH

Rolly, at its peak, made 2 landfalls in Bicol region (Catanduanes and Bicol), prompting some 96,887 families or 372,381 persons to evacuate their homes. Some 147 houses were submerged in lahar and debris from Mt. Mayon. The country's 18th storm this year left an estimated P694.37 million worth of damage to agriculture in Bicol alone, according to the report citing the Department of Agriculture. (source: ABS-CBN News)

#UlyssesPH

Typhoon Ulysses, the Philippines' 21st tropical cyclone for 2020, began pummeling Luzon on November 11. Still reeling from Super Typhoon Rolly (Goni), Bicol was the first to face Ulysses' wrath, as the typhoon triggered massive floods in parts of the region. Ulysses then battered Calabarzon, Central Luzon, and Metro Manila, unleashing powerful winds and torrential rain that left neighborhoods submerged and people appealing for aid and rescue. (Source: Rappler)

150,000 farmers and 275,000 hectares of land have incurred losses amounting up to P10-B (~268 USD) after the devastations caused by Typhoons Quinta, Rolly, and Ulysses. That’s from agriculture alone, the losses from the massive flooding of Cagayan and Isabela are still not included in the computation. (source: CNN)

Massive flooding in Cagayan, due to continuous environment abuse

The massive flooding in Cagayan, the worse yet in 40 years, only shows environmental neglect. The biggest problem is the degradation of forests in both Cagayan and Sierra Madre sides. Today, the Cagayan River isn’t even visible as the region submerges in flood.

The province is the catch basin of rain water coming from Cagayan Valley and the Cordillera Administrative Region. Illegal logging has veeb a problem as well for the past 5 decades. The flooding has affected at least 179, 940 individuals in 26 municipalities of Cagayan. More than 11,000 families have been evacuated.

Several factors caused the floods, including recent tropical cyclones and tail-end of a cold front, which prompted the release of water from Magat Dam. Excess water flowed to Cagayan River and its tributaries, flooding communities. (source: Rappler)

Dam operators must be held accountable for Cagayan and Isabela floods

The widespread flooding in Cagayan that gripped the nation this weekend is partly being blamed on the massive release of water from Magat Dam. Typhoon Ulysses made landfall late night Wednesday, November 11, and by Thursday, November 12, Magat Dam opened 7 gates and discharged 6,244 cubic meters of water per second. Dams including Magat rushed to open gates only at the height of Ulysses.

Magat did not make sufficient water drawdown 2 to 3 days prior to Ulysses, as mandated by its protocol, because its gates were not even open 3 to 4 days prior to landfall According to the Magat Dam protocol, there should be a drawdown 2-3 days before the expected landfall.

They had 3 days in advance [to pre-release water], the forecast was made at least 3 days in advance. If you did not contain the release within 1-2 days only but rather within 5 days, then the rivers will be able to handle it better.

The panic on Friday night was partly due to a dearth of information coming from inside Cagayan, which national media had not physically reached at that time. The steady stream of updates only came from the Twitter feed of Vice President Leni Robredo, who herself was also only getting updates from Manila. (source: Rappler)

Save Sierra Madre, Stop Kaliwa Dam

Sierra Madre is the longest mountain range in the Philippines and it protects the country from strong typhoons. However, illegal and abusive deforestation is keeping it from maintaining its full functionality. Kaliwa Dam is proposed to be built along Sierra Madre mountain range, and the environment experts and the citizens are wary of its possible repercussions.

You can help us stop the creation of Kaliwa Dam by signing the following petitions:

Pampanga Needs Help

Just like what’s happening in Cagayan and Isabela, Pampanga is also facing the run-offs by massive floods from Sierra Madre, Tarlac, and Nueva Ecija. Water from Bulacan will go down to Macabebe and Masantol. Waters in San Luis, Pampanga already reached head level.

Citizen-blaming

Office of Civil Defense Asec. Casiano Monilla denies that government was caught flat-footed by Ulysses and shifts blame to citizens who supposedly did not heed early warnings. The prime duty of the government is to serve and protect its people. The government refuses to be held accountable from their own incompetence. There wasn’t even a proper briefing before the typhoon struck.

Sen. Gordon also told the public that “No one will take care of you or your family best other than you. Don’t rely on the government.” This also caused unrest in the citizens who wanted to ensure the safety of one another. Because it only seems that we always have to beg to be served when in fact, all the money circulating the government came from taxpayers’ hardworks .

Oust Duterte, Now

Amidst all struggles the Filipino people are facing right now, from the covid virus up to the cyclone casualties, all of it comes down with the toxic and overly romanticized Filipino Resilience. Additional disaster response are not even planned well, hence the lack of mobilization. The president has all the power to do so, with one word. But not only does he keep the people waiting during crisis, he also only does briefing during or after the disasters. This is why people ask, “Nasaan ang Pangulo?” (Where is the President?)

Fanatics defended the president from criticisms, when asking for his presence will always be a valid question, because we all want to see the response to those who need it most, and not some measly comment on how he wanted to swim with the Filipinos but can’t, because of his health. That is not the point. The president doesn’t need to swim in order to reach help to the Filipinos, he just has to tell all of the country’s rescue forces to hurry.

Addressing the Taal Volcano eruption — “I will eat the lahar and pee on the volcano.”

Addressing the Covid virus — “I will spit [on] and punch the coronavirus.”

Addressing the massive flooding and demand for accountability — “I want to swim with you but the problem is, they’re stopping me, because if I die, there is only one president.”

The Filipinos can no longer wait and laugh at measly hyperbole. People are dying.

Monetary support

Thankfully, independent rescue missions and donations were arranged by several individuals and organizations to lend a hand to those in need. One of those who were seen with initiatives is the Office of the Vice President who is in partnership with Bangon Luzon in Project Kaya Natin ‘To (We can do this). So if you’re looking for a trustworthy organization to donate for the victims of the typhoons, this is where you should donate.

Below are emergency numbers that you can contact in case you need help during this super typhoon. Keep safe, everyone!

[chocnat]

I’m not one to usually do this but please! We need your reblogs! Signal boost this post and more! For the past weeks, northern PH has experienced 4 typhoons, with typhoon Ulysses/Vamco being the last and the strongest. Our brothers and sisters in Luzon are experiencing maybe the worst typhoon we have experienced in this decade. So, please please please. If you can’t donate in cash or kind, a reblog will do.

Adding more avenues to this post

and I am retweeting other avenues through my Twitter @tzcarpina

So I'll cut to the chase on this since a lot of people are dying, drowning, and screaming for help in Cagayan and Isabela, Philippines. A lot of them have also been stranded and are standing on their rooftops as we speak.

I'm here to post a collection of donation drives that I've gathered online. If we can't help them physically, we can at least make sure they have monetary assistance, food and clothing once they're evacuated.

This is how Cagayan looks, from recent photos (not mine)

HOW TO HELP

DONATION DRIVES

Please feel free to add on this post for any other ways to help.

For context:

The Philippines has been hit by three consecutive typhoons this month alone: Quinta, Rolly (Goni internationally) and Ulysses. It's been hitting nearly the same areas, which has made them even more vulnerable now that they're still recovering from the previous typhoons. Our mountain ranges couldn't shield us from this due to heavy quarrying and deforestation.

That said, these aren't the only places in need of assistance. But these are the places in urgent need of help. And we're trying to do as best as we can with what little we have.

I'll update this post from time to time for full transparency.

[the-bi-fangirl-biatch]

If any of you noticed, another huge typhoon has hit the Philippines. The typhoon Ulysses has brought so much hardships and pain to its victims in the Philippines. Homes were destroyed due to the flooding and the wind. People still stranded on their roofs waiting to be rescued. And what's worst, it came right after typhoon Rolly ravaged the people. They haven't even recovered from one disaster, and then another worse one comes crashing through. All while there's still a pandemic going on.

Our government is sh*t. They're hardly doing anything. Our president is a no-show once again. They aren't here when we need them. So we decided to take it into our own hands.

First Monday of the month that I really like, walang iniisip na gagawing activities, quizzes, exams. But this week is probably a "hell week" (di pa ako naka-review) yess midterms na!!! Pero kakayanin yan (hopefully).

Today, i went biking ang ganda kasi ng panahon kanina nagtatago yung araw sa mga ulap tapos ang sarap ng simoy ng hangin. Pero sa kabilang dako ng bansa, ang daming kawawa dahil sa bagyo. Ang daming nasalanta ng kalamidad, mga namatay sa baha at mga nasirang bahay. I hope for their safety and health please keep on continuing our prayers for them. I feel blessed to feel this kind of weather kahit signal no.2 kami hindi masiyadong naulan at baha. Pero nalulungkot parin ako sa mga labis na nasalanta lalo na yung mga salat sa buhay at sana lumipas na din at maging payapa ang panahon para makapagsimula ulit. Wag tayong mawalan ng pag-asa ang bagyo dadaan lang yan, mas matapang tayo at maging mas matatag dahil palaging may bagong umagang darating.

Thank you so much for spreading this! The PH is having such a hard time, especially since most relief centers are crowded, which increases the risk of Covid 19 infection (and our "president" was missing from the 1st high briefing regarding typhoon Rolly, MIA once again). Please join us in donating masks, alcohol, and other hygiene products in addition to the basic necessities like clothes, food, and water.

The Philippines just got hit by the strongest tropical cyclone ever recorded in history

Yesterday, November 1, 2020, Typhoon Rolly (international name Goni) hit the central part of Luzon, Philippines. 

source: https://twitter.com/DrJeffMasters/status/1322676688002625536?s=20

Like the tweet said, it is the most powerful tropical cyclone to hit landfall in recorded history. 

The typhoon has now passed, but the aftermath is bad. Houses destroyed, farmlands flooded, and many, many evacuees. If you would like to see what’s going on, check the hashtag #RollyPH on Twitter, there’s a lot, which brings me to the most important point

how you can help

You can donate to help relief operations. 

There are many donation drives currently being circulated on Twitter, and you can find them by searching the #ReliefPH hashtag, here are just a few that I’ve found that have an option to donate through PayPal.

And there are many many more. 

This is just the tip of the iceberg, a lot of people in my country are trying their absolute best to chip in and help those affected, but help from outside would definitely be something that could go a long way. 

If you can’t donate, maybe a reblog could bring this post to people who could. 

Thank you for reading. Stay safe and healthy, everybody.

this is how i imagine how big the ph's babies are especially deku, bkg, and kiri

(link fs!)

HOOOOOO MY GODDDDD, that baby looks like a little gumdrop, i just want to kiss him🥺🥺🥺

But lkdjafkdljf absolutely! Most, if not all, pro heroes give you the CHUNKIEST of babies. Kiri especially, as the kid's coming out both huge and w/ rolls, too.

I feel like Deku gives you the naturally biggest one who just ends up looking a lil tubby (which is adorbs, BTW. They are so buttery)... and Bakugo gives you the perfect sized... dough ball. Nice and round, just a full on rollie pollie that's always got a foot in their mouth.

It's cute. All the boys line their babies up on the bed to take pictures... and literally start arguing about who's the biggest.

Typhoon Ulysses PH Relief Drive

Hello people, it’s me again, ancient_moonshine on ao3. Thanks to you and your generous donations, my friends and I were able to start our own charity drive which primarily seeks to help pandemic-affected jeepney drivers and their families. :D We’re currently aiding 9 jeepney operator and drivers’ associations within Metro Manila, with 637 members total. To date, DIWA has set up four community gardens for four different jeepney operators and drivers’ associations, as well as provided some of the drivers’ children with gadgets and internet for distance learning purposes. Through the Rotary Club, we’ve also coordinated with the Department of Health to provide them with maintenance medicines, and Rebisco food company to give them food packages. In the aftermath of Typhoon Rolly, we’ve also helped out evacuees from Guinobatan, Albay, by providing them with water after lahar buried their homes.  Check us out at facebook.com/Diwa Uplifts. However, I have to ask for your help again. I’m sure people have heard about the terrible flooding Typhoon Ulysses caused in the Philippines [international name: Vamco], right at the heels of Typhoon Rolly [international name: Goni]. Our current beneficiaries are drivers belonging to the San Mateo Maly-Philcoa Jeepney Operators and Drivers Association based in San Mateo, Rizal City, and the Tumana-Balara Jeepney Operators and Drivers Association in Balara, Quezon City. The drivers of both JODAs live in Rizal and Marikina, the worst-affected cities in Metro Manila, and many of them wound up with their homes and belongings submerged in floodwaters. These people are now staying in evacuation centers, or living in their jeepneys in their terminals while they fix up the damage to their homes and try to salvage their belongings. I will spare you the images because they’re honestly extremely upsetting, but here are some links to news sites for you to see how bad the damage is:  https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/1359823/typhoon-ulysses-triggers-worst-floods-in-metro-manila-in-years

https://www.cnnphilippines.com/news/2020/11/13/Marikina-state-of-calamity-Typhoon-Ulysses.html https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/12/asia/typhoon-vamco-philippines-intl/index.html

https://news.abs-cbn.com/news/multimedia/photo/11/12/20/massive-flooding-in-san-mateo-rizal At the rate deforestation and climate change are going, and given their locations [quarrying and deforestation in nearby mountains and watersheds basically sent water rushing down their slopes and rivers swelling because there were no trees left to absorb it] the problem our beneficiaries are currently facing stands to be a recurrent one. To make matters worse, the quarantine [longest in the world] and the jeepney modernization program have sapped their sources of income dry. Hence, our drive hopes to provide them emergency relief kits and go bags, to give them resources they might not otherwise be able to afford, just in case another typhoon sweeps across Metro Manila. [and there stands to be at least 4 more, this year alone]. We pray they don’t need them anymore, but just in case...  Unfortunately, donor fatigue is a thing, and honestly local resources have been sapped dry [Ulysses did not affect Metro Manila alone, it also hit Cagayan, Pampanga, Aurora, practically the entirety of Luzon]. So this is us, the members of DIWA, asking the international community for help. So far a rough estimate of the minimum that our grab bag will cost [food, toiletries, and meds excluded given we hope to get those via donations in kind] are the following: GRAB BAG COSTING PhP110  - 1 clear bag PhP155  - solar flashlights PhP4.36  - 1 whistle   PhP14 - 1 roll of tissue Per bag cost: PhP283.36 Total: San Mateo Maly-Philcoa JODA - 50 members x PhP283.36 = PhP14,168 ; roughly USD 294.45  [USD 1= PhP 48. 28] Tumana-Balara JODA - 62 members x  PhP283.36 = PhP17,568.32; roughly USD 363.88 *If solar lamps only for Tumana-Balara JODA [depending on our budget, Marikina LGU is comparatively experienced at disaster-preparedness, so priority for the kits is San Mateo]: 62 members x P155 =  PhP9,610 [roughly USD199.04] For international donors, our Paypal account is rayaalte@gmail.com. You may find a link to our transparency sheet in the above image, as well as links to our official socmed accounts.  Please send me a PM if you wish to donate, and a screenshot of your donation. Unfortunately gifts are closed for the moment since I still have a backlog, but even a simple share means the world to us. ;___; Thank you so much for your support, and may we see better times ahead.  Thank you so much. <3
