The article talks about the super typhoon that affected to Haiyan, the islands that make up the Philippines, the largest typhoon in all history of we have knowledge.
The main important point of this article is can show to the world the personal impressive experiences of the people that was on the place the moment at the catastrophe, tallying each experiences that the author can compile. For example: the experience of the family of Paraskovich. They seen all the roofs of the house fall dawn and they have to carry their old grand Mather to save her, he said that everything has blown away!!
Also the author talks about that the government has not qualified to confront a disaster like that, they never have a plan, the people doesn't have the necessary knowledge to save their own lives! The houses wasn't enough resistant because they are made of wood and straw. People in general felt very frightened and insecure fearing for his life. So now the government has to learned about the experience and make a good plan for this kind of situations.
A lot of people die because this catastrophe, and a lot of people loose everything, houses, hospitals, supermarkets, whole buildings are destroyed. And that's why people are waiting for help, they doesn't have food, water, refuge or medicine, they need comfort and support of outside and they are waiting for it.
It was a painful experience for a lot of people and they need help.
Really, nature could be too destructive.
