Help and Donate to the Flood Victims of Typhoon Ketsana (Ondoy)

These are some of the shocking and heart wrenching videos of the recent floods that hit Manila on September 26, 2009 . Most were taken by ordinary citizens who shot the videos of the scenes happening around them.













These pictures are closer to home. These were taken by the adventurous Salva brothers and posted on their facebook page and shared with everyone.

Typhoon Ondoy or Ketsana has caused so much death and damage that hasn't been seen in Manila in decades. The cost of damages will not be known for weeks. I'm sure it will be a huge amount. An amount that the Philippines cannot afford. Several tv channels are trying to raise funds for the victims. You can also help wherever you are in the world.
