We are every lucky here that our country has been spared from the appalling tsunamis that struck most of the South Asian Counrtries. There weren't any Tsunami warnings they say thats why number of dead is just overwhelming. Here in the Philippines, President Arroyo is now making sure that similar fate wont happen to Filipinos and has authorized the release of 17 million pesos to upgrade the country's weather forecasting system. Buti na man!
The money will be given to the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA). Dapat lang! This should've been done long time so PAGASA can calculate accurate storm system warnings and forecasts how it will affect the Philippines. Plus of course with mordernizing PAGASA one hopes that we can prevent similar kind of destruction that has devastated several Asian nations.
