Tacloban comes to life after typhoon devastation

เขียนโดย fahummeenudmin
The streets around Tacloban's biggest wet market bustled with residents rebuilding their shattered lives 12 days after the city was reduced to matchwood and rubble by one of the world's biggest typhoons. Typhoon Haiyan smashed into the central Philippines on November 8, laying waste to just about everything in its path, killing more than 4,000 people and leaving four million displaced. Bodies are still being pulled from under the debris in Tacloban, the once-scenic gateway to the Eastern Visayas that bore the brunt of the storm. The city, capital of Leyte province, was without food or water for days, setting off a frenzy of looting, before roads were cleared and aid and supplies started to trickle back in. There was palpable optimism amongst the muddy stalls early on Wednesday as people bought anything from fish and live chickens to milk formula and underwear.
