SuperNOyPi


We, Filipinos are known for our happy demeanor and wonderful smiles, whatever problems we encounter in our life we still moving on, heads up and still optimistic about the future. On September 26, 2009 Typhoon Ondoy hits the metro manila with heavy rains and water levels went up so fast! It resulted metro-wide flooding around 5 in the afternoon. I was on my way to the office the view I saw all over metro manila shocked me. No electricity, the beauty of metro manila faded and covered by flood, no means of land transportation, except LRT and MRT. They continued their operation to help those stranded people all over the station.
Filipinos remain enthusiastic but the smiles were all gone, it was replaced by tears, and a sad faces. I realize that moment that the effect of typhoon Ondoy gives burden to my fellow countrymen.

Ok, that’s it. The good part is we learned from those experiences, though Philippines are in the state of calamity we still manage to render some help. Philippine rescue team, cost guards and volunteers, from different sectors really did their best to rescue those in need of help. The “pinoy bayanihan spirit” generosity and heroism rules! Filipinos willingness to care and protect others helps to expedite, monitor the areas that were devastated and in order to fasten the cleaning operations all over the metro. Now, typhoon victims surpass this kind of challenge, we survive and much prepared for the next typhoon. I remember a game contestant said in a famous TV game show and I would to share it with all of you. It goes “Walang bahang makakasira sa tibay ng Pinoy” I agree, we are strong we are superNOyPi.
