Philippines Situation
 

Is it good enough to say "Let's not blame the Government, instead let's help them." My friend keeps saying that! And I always answer him "Without proper plan before landfall of Haiyan is the biggest mistake of our Government."

Fix first, blame later.

You cannot do a damn thing to change what has happened. Going forward you can demand better performance from the government (for what it's worth).

But people need to be fed and attended to medically and that should be the number 1 priority.

Just my :2 cents: of course.

.

Like I said in another thread; their military has planes and helicopters. Where The HELL are they?
They should have been dropping in water and food for DAYS now.

Over and Over again... The only Valid purpose of government, to protect and serve... is a pipe dream.

If people keeps blaming the government nothing will happened to them. From my observation 2 days before the typhoon takes rampage the president announcing on local TV's that people on specific region should not underestimate typhoon "haiyan". That place in tacloban always hit by typhoon but they're not expecting a biggest one with storm surge that killed them in the first place. They're not well informed what does "storm surge" means and they're not fully evacuated on there houses.
Agree with that , food and medication should be prioritize for now.

I think government is helping, it's just the areas covered by calamity is so vast.

The Marines have landed and have the situation well in hand.

(Belgium sent people too. Kudos.)

A country the size of Arizona? Don't patronize the government, it only makes you a collaborator.

So far, It's a FAIL.

No reason to not have supplies to EVERY point in Leyte by now. Isn't that what their function is?

Canadian military are sending in the Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART)

Make a joke out of this tragedy you dick.

You are already a collaborator so your dieing relatives can wait for the Marines or Belgium or, Rochard.

The ones that worship rulers the most are the last to go. But alas, as history shows, in the end, they will eat you too.

Why would they want someone who betrays their own?

You will have the 'privilege' of watching the fodder die before your own demise.

Dropping food and water is a temporary measure only
They have been using planes to get people out of the worst hit areas like taclaban and send them to Manilla.

You cant leave people on the ground in this regions its just too bad - bodies in trees etc etc ... after so many days since landfall its going to be riddled with disease there .

Dropping food and water is not temporary. It is essential.
