PHOTOS OF THE DEVASTATING FLOOD
THE RIGHT RESPONSE IS COLLECTIVE ANGER AT THE YEARS OF NEGLECT –LACK OF FLOOD CONTROLS–BY VARIOUS REGIMES AND GOVERNMENTS, FROM THE MARCOS DICTATORSHIP UP TO NOW!
Grief, yes, but in other countries, governments are brought down by such national catastrophes!

—
Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness, and his upper rooms by injustice; who makes his neighbors work for nothing, and does not give them their wages; who says, „I will build myself a spacious house with large upper rooms,“ and who cuts out windows for it, paneling it with cedar, and painting it with vermilion. Are you a king because you compete in cedar? – Jeremiah 22:13-15 (Sojourners)
Laking kasawian para sa nagtatayo ng kanyang bahay sa pamamagitan ng kabuktutan, at ng kanyang mga silid sa pamamagitan ng kawalang-katarungan; sa nagpapatrabaho ng kapwa nang walang kabayaran; sa nagsasabing, „Magpapagawa ako ng engrandeng bahay na may malalaking silid,“ at nagsusukat ng mga bintana para rito na gawa sa narra at pintado ng mapusyaw na pula. Hari ka ba dahil sa mas marami kang nakamal na narra? – Jeremiah 22:13-15
