Cut out

Update posted by Maria Jehan Alimpuyo

so this is the 4th day now and still having difficulties in getting through to my family.

from what I gathered on facebook from friends from other parts of the Philippines, Capiz is still 95% down. The area is getting a lot less coverage compared to other affected areas. Due to lack to aid, Capiz supply of food and clean water are running low.

until now, most part of Capiz including the small town where I grewup is still trapped. 

Still no network, no electricity, lack of support from the government. Many areas are not pasable due to flooding and fallen trees and debris.

I haven't made another contact with my family, the first and last time I spoke to my grandma, she mentioned that it may take 60 days to fix the power supply given that most towns and villages are down, power companies are also strugling to priorities their work.

When it comes to food and clean water supply, i hope that my family would have enough to go round and also share with the neighbours. 

i have asked my cousin to take photos of damages, but for now, this is almost impossible. No power supply, not network and also they cant get to the nearest town. 

 

but this is a video that was posted by some nitezen from the city. It shows exactly the aftermath of Haiyan.
