This post read a conversation on flood control infrastructures /mitigation measures. One netizen said that no amount of infrasturctures would have contained the rainwater which was rather high, brought about by typhoon Kristine. To which another citizen said it is non snese since Japan and Holland were able to do this. (Even Turkey) To Dutch, their inability to contain flood would have cost their survival.
The Japanese has a system that can drain an Olympic sized swimming pool in one second.
No lame excuses, no limit to what we can do regarding flood control, since life of our countrymen depend on this. And we have to live in the future with heavy reains The fact is large amounts, amounting to trillions all ready for the last 10 years (and even mentioned by PBBM to be total of 5,500 all ready!)
Where did the money go? Where/what are the infrastructures built? What happened to the Bicol River Basin Project?
Relief operations, wailing for the dead will not do us good. We have to proactive approach towards this flood. Many scientists and engineers would have done their study, and politicians and crooks are blocking the way
