In Liloan, a coastal city in Cebu Province of the Philippines and one of the areas hardest hit by Typhoon Kalmaegi, desperate residents are still waiting for any information of the loved ones who vanished in the violent tropical storm-triggered floods. Typhoon Kalmaegi made landfall in the Philippines on Tuesday, triggering massive flooding that submerged houses up to the roofs, swept away countless cars, and displaced thousands of villagers. As of 06:00 Saturday, the death toll from Typhoon Kalmaegi has climbed to 204, with 109 more still listed as missing, according to the country's National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council. Many residents have held funerals for the victims, and waiting for information, if any, from search and rescue teams about their missing family members. "We are in deep grief now. We cannot escape the pain of what has happened. We have lost parents, husband, and children. This is the situation we face now. We are keeping vigil over the bodies. Our family is incomplete, with some members still missing, and we don't know if we will ever find them," said Viola Danlag, a resident. "Before the winds intensified, some government officials and village officers patrolled around in a dump truck. But they just walked around and didn't tell us what was going to happen next. We could only observe the weather to see if it would rain. They didn't clearly tell us we should evacuate, or warn us that there would be severe floods. It started from light rain, but quickly turned into floods. Everything happened rapidly. When the typhoon actually hit, there was absolutely no rescue effort. There were no rubber boats. And I believe that even if there were, we wouldn't have been able to escape such a severe flash flood," said Rose Aranez, another resident. The search and rescue work for the missing have still been underway in the country. According to the data released, nearly 30,000 houses were damaged across the Philippines, along with 157 public facilities, including hospitals and schools. Power supply was disrupted in 162 municipalities, and communications were affected in 86. Agricultural losses exceeded 40 million pesos (about 680,230 U.S. dollars). Philippine President Ferdinand Romualdez Marcos declared a state of national calamity on Thursday. Kalmaegi was the 20th typhoon to slam the Philippine archipelago so far this year.
