    It was still dark when my sisters and I were woken up. My mom got us girls dressed and ready while my dad loaded up our old Chrysler Cordoba. It was 6 am when our journey began, and I remember looking back in the direction of the volcano and seeing the giant mushroom cloud in the sky. The first leg of the evacuation was a 55 mile drive to Subic Bay Naval Station in Olongapo City, where we were initially told that we would only remain for several days. Then, approximately 48 hours after our evacuation, almost as sudden as the move itself, we encountered the first full eruption of Mt. Pinatubo. Along with the arrival of Typhoon Yunya and 7 inches of monsoon showers , we faced frequent earth tremors and the effects of total darkness on June 15, 1991. This event was known as “Black Saturday.” The suspension of the debris in the atmosphere had caused all sunlight to be blocked, turning day into pitch black night. We were confined to our quarters, which was a three bedroom house in military housing that we shared with two other families. Oh, and there was no furniture. There were frequent power outages and a shortage of drinkable water. The ground was covered in a thick blanket of white, dusty…

    The infrastructure in SITE has totally collapsed. Roads are full of potholes, with stagnant water, and so bumpy that motorcyclists are not able to handle their vehicles. Industrialists who daily traverse on these roads dread bringing their new cars. Commuters travelling on buses usually sit on the roof and perform acrobatic feats trying to balance themselves. The worst nightmare is travelling on side roads or lanes. These are akin to rocky and steep mountains in Balochistan or KPK.…

    But this would not be the end of the lives of Filipino people. We all know that our days of seeking progress and livelihood become minimal as we face different phenomenal catastrophe in a year. Imagine the numerous typhoons that had swept the different provinces with its alarming effect to the area. Causing floods, landslides, destroying properties and the worst of all taking lives of many innocent people, most of them are children and elders. They are the ones not strong enough to surpass the diseases brought about by those calamities. Calamities with different orthography, with different names, whatever it may be it would always spell c-a-t-a-s-t-r-o-p-h-e. It spreads like a slander and it makes the victims lissome.

By the other sources, a lesser amount of conventional assessments put the number of drug-related deaths as high as a…
