HEADLINE STINGER

NTL REPORTER 1: Heavy rain induced by Typhoon Ising spelled disaster for residents of
Cherry Hills Subdivision in Antipolo City, when the ground beneath them
broke apart and silde down the mountain.

Houses went down along with the landslide, while those living down the
slope were buried in mud and concrete. A total of 60 people died.

University of the Philippines Geologists who looked into the disaster

argued that while heavy rains may have set off the landslide, certain
geological traits of the area where the subdivision stood made it
vulnerable.

HEADLINE STINGER

NTL REPORTER 2: Usman triggers landslides in Bicol and Visayas Regions Tropical
depression Usman, which weakened into a low pressure system before
leaving the Philippines, brought heavy rain that triggered landslides and
flooding in Bicol and eastern Visayas regions in January 02, 2019.

Bicol, was the hardest hit, with 68 people were killed in intense rains and
landslides. Damage to agriculture was estimated P342 million. The
casualties, were mostly killed when their homes collapsed in landslides
after days of heavy rain in several provinces, said Ricardo Jalad, executive
director of the national disaster agency.

Officials put three provinces under a "state of calamity" to give them

access to emergency funds. Tropical cyclones hit the Philippines every
year, with destroyed crops and infrastructure taking a toll on human lives
and weighing down one of the fastest growing economies in Asia.
