Here is one of the latest news in Cagayan De Oro:
Floods spawned by tropical storm “Auring” and the continuous cold front-induced downpour have affected 12,000 to 15,000 families in Cagayan de Oro City so far, Mayor Constantino Jaraula said on Wednesday.
In an interview over radio dzBB, Jaraula said rains in the city that have been fluctuating from light to strong in the past few days have caused floods to lower but not to completely subside.
He appealed for food and clothing donations for the affected families, which he said has risen to possibly as much as 15,000 in Cagayan de Oro alone.
Wherever you are, Filipino or not you can help save lives and give a better future for childrens affected by storm and flooding that continue to affect their everyday life.
With the help of the Cagayan de Oro City Bloggers Group, we would like to ask for as little as $3 paypal donation. DONATE HERE:
Flood in Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines has affected 80% of the Barangays there. More than anything, flood victims need food to eat thus we decided to push through with this Feeding Program Project. We shall be using the money to purchase rice and noodles and distribute it this weekend.

Pano nga bah nagkaroon ng ganun kagrabeng pagbaha sa CDO? Come to think of it? It’s not only the nature that we are talking about here. It also includes the creator of our nature, who allows everything to happen. Ano bah nangyari sa CDO before ng nangyari? As far as I know, the parade for the black nazarene(which draws thousands of people in CDO), happened before the flood. Few hours after the parade, in the afternoon specifically, the heavy rain fall, which then cause this tragedy. So ano maiisip nyo? For me, ang event before the flood ay may malaking kinalaman sa trahedyang nangyari.
Let me share to you what’s on my shell, no offense
… It is clearly stated in the Bible, which is also one of the ten commandments. “Thou shalt have no other gods before Me”. Meaning people should not worship idols or any graven images or statutes, made by man. Sa tingin ko God just poured his wrath in CDO, where the event happened.
That is based on my understanding about this tragedy. No offense. One advise to you guys reading my post. “Do not mess with GOD!”. The end is near and you’ll never know what will happen.
