Landslide at Pantukan, Compostela Valley


This happened at dawn today.  At least sixteen people were killed, and a lot are missing.  Upon accessing this video above on YouTube, I saw this other video (those that are on the right side): A Tribute to the Pantukan Landslide Victims.  I thought that it was uploaded today, but it turned out, when I looked at the date, it was last April of 2011.  

It hasn't been a year, and yet, this is another landslide.  I find it really disturbing.  

It is really sad that we still haven't moved on from what happened to Cagayan de Oro and Iligan City, another wrath of nature has happened again.  And the even sadder part is that, it seems that this is the product of illegal activities around these places.
