'Typhoons' Bicol Region  

Typhoons

Bicol Region, Philippines

Dancer from The Ballroom -

Bicol Region, and surrounding areas as well are magnets for typhoons. Are there very many people that live in these areas. I have read that not too long ago a typhoon came through killing around 1000 people.

No trackbacks.

Yeah i read about that too. It seems that thypoons are pretty common in the Philippines. I could not imagine having to go through that!

Comment #2 Edward from Atlanta, Georgia -

I was reading that Cebu City was a good place to live as it is far enough South to escape the Typoons.

Comment #8 Ruby from Philippines -

Hi to everyone! Unfortunately, the Philippines is always battered by typhoons. However, majority of this typhoons are concentrated on specific areas. Not necesarily the entire country is always affected. Those usually badly hit are Batanes, Ilocos Region, Bicol Region.

The sad thing is that Filipinos are known to be regional meaning they value the place where they were born and grew up. So even if the area is prone to calamities and even the government exerts all efforts to ask them to relocate they just couldn't have the guts to leave perhaps because of their properties or their livelihood.

Although there is also an advantage because we also experience drought during summertime so also need the rainfall to provide water to our dams.

Here are some of the images that we were able to gather after the typhoons of 2006. This gallery is dedicated to all the calamity victims, to those who have perished and have lost their loved one. May this be a reminder of those fateful days.

After almost two weeks of none stop rains, Legazpi City has been flooded for a day and has affected the business center in downtown Legazpi. The Legazpi City Government had launched a drainage clean up to avoid further damage to health and properties. I hope there will be a lasting solution to this perennial problem. comment are wellcome.
