Typhoon-hit Philippines

Rowena Collera, 40, lost her house in the typhoon. She and her husband, who is an electrician, built up a little shack of four to five square meters with scrap iron sheets and planks. Rowena Collera keeps the space clean and requires visitors to take off their shoes before coming in. Her husband is prohibited from entering without taking off his shoes. "I've lost my house, but it doesn't mean I cannot live a decent life," she said. [Photo/chinadaily.com.cn]

"We need help" is painted on the embankment along the shore. Signals asking for help can often be seen on the ground or on the roof in the affected area. The typhoon brought stormy waves onto the island and destroyed everything. Fortunately, rescue teams from China and other countries have arrived. Rows of tents have been set up as temporary shelters for the locals. [Photo/chinadaily.com.cn]
