LOOK: Floods and Trash

Most of Metro Manila are submerged in floodwaters for the second straight day on Sunday, August 12, 2018, as heavy rains induced by the southwest monsoon continue. Residents of Provident Villlage in Marikina relive the nightmare of Tropical Storm “Ondoy” in 2009 as water from Marikina River overflows. And while its water level may have gone down, the river is still being monitored as thousands of residents stay in evacuation centers. Meanwhile, trash collectors clean up the coast of Manila Bay on Roxas Boulevard in Manila. PHOTOS FROM RUSSELL PALMA, NETIZENS NICOLE CUA AND ABET BORBON REYES, MARIKINA PUBLIC INFORMATION OFFICE
