Well there's nothing in the news that I'm aware of. Articles like this get picked up:
http://globalnation.inquirer.net/news/breakingnew...

But not much about the current status of initiatives started- evacuation, where goods are being distributed, etc.. again - no follow through! Not even in news. There's a few like this:

People ARE keeping their eyes out for more disasters: http://www.gmanews.tv/story/176943/2-3-cyclones-t...

...but this is why it's so important to get involved. Because you CAN know first hand what is happening in places you helped in and are monitoring yourselves. With that said, I'll shoot an email to Gene and ask him how Ciudad and Kaingin are post Ondoy and Pagoyo post Santi and give you a report....

Great post. It shows how part of the nations inability to follow through is because the news we read doesn't follow through either.

yeah people have been sending me that... needs more investigation....
some facts need to be straightened out.. for example the site wasn't BLOCKED... it exceeded it's bandwidth limitation, etc :)
but yeah it's a sticky situation... and whether or not this is a case of corruption, corruption is a reality and im sure it's happening.

just means there's more work to do and we have to do it ourselves.

sounds great! go and do it! What village is this?
If you and your friends can come up with a documented plan + steps, we can repeat it in other villages.
I can help you promote it - graphic design + a post in the website...

the key is to make it duplicable so other people can do what you're doing in their villages..
you just need to tell them how and take the thinkwork out of it so it's easier for them :)

re: the meeting over coffee- what I meant was that i had a meeting with my friend Gene over coffee
although it's probably a good idea to meet with people.. really... and makati would be the best place to do it...

about the stuff in your head, just keep on posting it here... people will read it and jump in the conversation...
