Strong typhoon hit Manila, Philippines causing heavy flooding especially in the depressed areas. My hometown (Pandacan, Manila) only suffered minor flooding and power outage, but the surrounding towns and cities were submerged in flood water.
Watch the 10-minute youtube video below (contains foul language in the middle portion of the clip) as it shows how devastating the storm was:
The government is calling for unity now, "bayanihan" in our local parlance. As of this writing, the flood water in some areas has receded down to knee. Traffic has returned to normal in some roads, but some streets are still not passable.
