Philippine Typhoon: Basyang.

It's the first typhoon that hit the Metro since this last summer of 2010. However, it inflicts unexpected devastation mainly on Metro Manila. Leaving the capital city powerless for more or less a day. The typhoon has destroyed a lot of establishments mainly billboards, electric posts and trees Leaving a huge aftermath of destruction.

The gusty wind was never expected as PAGASA anticipated. President Noynoy Aquino reprimanded the PAGASA because of giving a mediocre report about the typhoon.

Amazingly, Meralco has done an outstanding job backing up the lines after the typhoon. The estimated time to fix all the power outage problems over Metro Manila is 2 to 3 days. But by seeing their performance, they are doing well especially here in the southern Luzon area. They backed up the electric lines in more or less a day and I am highly confident that the restoration of electricity over the Metro will be done by tomorrow(just a day).
