TIME OUT!



Everybody just stay calm. Be informed. Inform people. And again STAY CALM!

RAISE THE ROOF @MEGATENT

@ MEGATENT . READ IT.


There are different ways of helping out. Read the poster and benefit others while benefiting other people greatly affected by the calamity.

You bring what is asked. People get more relief. These bands play. And you get yours.

Give it a rest man.

Copy paste. Copy paste. Copy paste.



Dear Politicians,

I am aware of the help some of you have given. Take note of the word, SOME. We volunteers need your help. You need to donate more so we can do some more.

The picture above is the most blatant act of propaganda I have ever seen. This is not the time for controlling the minds of the needy and desperate. We should stand up and realize that we should not allow ourselves to be locked in a rat maze. We are not under - achievers. We are going to stand - up. Let's not talk about religion or politics. This is not the time to focus on who's left and who's right. This is the time for humanity and human kind standing up for something pure and something right. The people that are your responsibility are now fired - up. We are now getting excited about the real things. The things that matter; humanity, creativity and freedom.

There are definitely things that you are doing that you should not. And there are things that you should be doing. Re-asses your strategies to helping and not promoting. You should realize by now that the human spirit does not submit. I suggest you back us up.

Day 3. KSTREET PINAS Does It's Rounds.


The packers
The Megatent in Meralco Ave.

"Able bodied men" Look up. Catch. Carry. Drop. Good Times.


Thank you Idris Vicuna and James Go for the photos.

3rd day of relief effort..

In Megatent, which actually felt like Saguijo, by the number of musicians and artists around ; there has been a large space and they deploy very quickly. The workers get stuck at times doing nothing. The problem is, they lack donations. The donations coming in when we got there only consumed a fourth of the space. So please redirect your donations to Megatent. A big thank you to that anonymous person who donated a BAD ASS TRUCK LOAD of Bigas / Rice sacks! Bring what you can bring : WATER and more WATER.

CLOTHES TOILETRIES. PLASTIC BAGS , TAPE FOR RE - PACKING. This place needs to be packed as it is very accesible.

Ateneo - - there is a large number of volunteers. Actually the volunteers outnumber the goods.
There are also times when we were just sitting around. It's good that there are a lot more volunteers now. But I hope somebody uses their BIG NAME contacts and tell them to donate in a major way. Not just in Ateneo but in other places as well.

I think the civilian volunteers are exhausting their funds quickly as days go by and that's why there's an abundance of workers. The worker greatly outnumber the workload. So come on you rich people. Let's not be modest..give what you know you can.

So the message is simple , coordinate and get informed as to where you can be THE MOST EFFECTIVE. PEACE.

Gabriela says they will focus on Tatalon, Silangan , Batasan and veterans. All help is welcome. These areas have recieved zero to minimal aid. If you want to help gabriela , CONTACT : 09167649571.




Trash Trash Trash.

That's a TREE and that's how high the water was in Marikina. And all of those ornaments are trash.
Down.
More trash x Filter

If there was one thing Bayani Fernando's "fences" did right aside from creating traffic and obstacles for motorists to avoid, It was this. To filter out all the shit / trash from the flood that ran through millions of homes and devastated areas. As you can see, there's an abundant amount of plastic waste and also foliage that was caught up in the once called government fences.. and now, accidental "filters". In my opinion, if these little fuck shits of waste of tax weren't there, it would have taken longer for water to drain.


After seeing the many sights and smells of marikina's atermath, there was one thing very evident; this wasn't just mother nature having a very bad case of dysmenorrhea. This shit was also our fault or our mistake. It was Nature , and our carelessness , ignorance , and lazyness all rolled into one snowball. And now, we see the effects.

I hope the government learns how to dispose trash properly. And I also think we should all take part.

We need to be aware. We need to do something about it. Oh yeah, Stop cutting trees man!


PROVIDENT VILLAGE (Marikina)/ Aftermath Sept. 28 09

The car tells a story. The house behind it.. abandoned Most homes there had nobody in them
Mud was still thick and the village looked like a ghost town.
What the? That's how high the water was..
I took a shot of this car on the way to marcos highway. It was around the also damaged toyota show room.

Shot a few hours ago in Marikina city. First photos were that of Provident Village. While doing rounds in the village everything looked the same. Muddy , desolate, destroyed. It was dissapointing to see that what was oretty much a village before now looked like a wasteland , tash was stacked as high as doors.

And as I headed to the exit I asked a police man where the evacuees where brought to. He said majority of them were in the nearby churches lining up for food and clothing.

And the others? I asked. He said , they're still inside their homes , they want to protect their homes from looters. It was evident and true. As I was circling the village, I saw 2 houses with candles on the second floor.

THIS IS WHAT UNITY IS. GET YOUR ASS UP.

Clothing Donations.
People passing boxes around.

Sardinassss salamat!
A flood of food supplies for the people in evacuation centers. People giving an extra hand unpacking donations This is what unity looks like. In Ateneo a well - organized , cohesive unit has been put together by the students who, amongst the chaos under the covered courts, have been able to arrange themselves in an orderly manner. Take note, These are ALL students when I went there. Each and everyone either donating or arranging. The atmosphere was infectious and heart - warming. There were people bringing in trucks and personal vehicles just to be able to load everything and bring them to the evacuation centers. Instead of just sitting down, these youth have stood up and reached out. This is for our country.

The Philippine people need your help.. go to link for information on how you can give rations and donate to the Philppine Red Cross. PLEASE CLICK THE LINK / TITLE FOR INFORMATION ON HOW TO HELP. To keep you kiddies safe please read through the information below:

After a Flood: The First Steps

Your home has been flooded. Although floodwaters may be down in some areas, many dangers still exist. Here are some things to remember in the days ahead.

  • Roads may still be closed because they have been damaged or are covered by water. Barricades have been placed for your protection. If you come upon a barricade or a flooded road, go another way.

  • Keep listening to the radio for news about what to do, where to go, or places to avoid.

  • Emergency workers will be assisting people in flooded areas. You can help them by staying off the roads and out of the way.

  • If you must walk or drive in areas that have been flooded

    • Stay on firm ground. Moving water only 6 inches deep can sweep you off your feet. Standing water may be electrically charged from underground or downed power lines.

    • Flooding may have caused familiar places to change. Floodwaters often erode roads and walkways. Flood debris may hide animals and broken bottles, and it's also slippery. Avoid walking or driving through it.

  • Play it safe. Additional flooding or flash floods can occur. Listen for local warnings andinformation. If your car stalls in rapidly rising waters, get out immediately and climb to higher ground.

Staying Healthy

A flood can cause emotional and physical stress. You need to look after yourself and your family as you focus on cleanup and repair.

  • Rest often and eat well.

  • Keep a manageable schedule. Make a list and do jobs one at a time.

  • Discuss your concerns with others and seek help. Contact Red Cross for information on emotional support available in your area.

Getting Help

  • The Red Cross can provide you with a cleanup kit: mop, broom, bucket, and cleaning supplies.

  • Contact your insurance agent to discuss claims.

  • Listen to your radio for information on assistance that may be provided by the state or federal government or other organizations.

  • If you hire cleanup or repair contractors, be sure they are qualified to do the job. Be wary of people who drive through neighborhoods offering help in cleaning up or repairing your home
