El número de muertos y desaparecidos en las enormes inundaciones y corrimientos de tierra provocados por la tormenta tropical Trami en Filipinas ha alcanzado casi los 130 y el presidente dijo el sábado que muchas zonas seguían aisladas con personas que necesitaban ser rescatadas.
Trami blew away from the northwestern Philippines on Friday, leaving at least 85 people dead and 41 others missing in one of the Southeast Asian archipelago’s deadliest and most destructive storms so far this year, the government’s disaster-response agency said. The death toll was expected to rise as reports came in from previously isolated areas.

Dozens of police, firefighters and other emergency personnel, backed by three backhoes and sniffer dogs, dug up one of the last two missing villagers in the lakeside town of Talisay in Batangas province Saturday.
A father, who was waiting for word on his missing 14-year-old daughter, wept as rescuers placed the remains in a black body bag. Distraught, he followed police officers, who carried the body bag down a mud-strewn village alley to a police van when one weeping resident approached him to express her sympathies.
The man said he was sure it was his daughter, but authorities needed to do checks to confirm the identity of the villager dug up in the mound.

In a nearby basketball gym at the town center, more than a dozen white coffins were laid side by side, bearing the remains of those found in the heaps of mud, boulders and trees that cascaded Thursday afternoon down the steep slope of a wooded ridge in Talisay's Sampaloc village.
El presidente Ferdinand Marcos, que el sábado inspeccionó otra región muy afectada al sureste de Manila, dijo que el volumen inusualmente grande de precipitaciones vertidas por la tormenta -incluso en algunas zonas se registraron precipitaciones equivalentes a uno o dos meses en sólo 24 horas- desbordó los controles de inundaciones en las provincias azotadas por el Trami.
"The water was just too much," Marcos told reporters.
"We’re not done yet with our rescue work," he said. "Our problem here, there are still many areas that remained flooded and could not be accessed even big trucks."
His administration, Marcos said, would plan to start work on a major flood control project that could meet the unprecedented threats posed by climate change.
More than 5 million people were in the path of the storm, including nearly half a million who mostly fled to more than 6,300 emergency shelters in several provinces, the government agency said.
In an emergency Cabinet meeting, Marcos raised concerns over reports by government forecasters that the storm — the 11th to hit the Philippines this year — could make a U-turn next week as it is pushed back by high-pressure winds in the South China Sea.
The storm was forecast to batter Vietnam over the weekend if it did not veer off course.

The Philippine government shut down schools and government offices for the third day on Friday to keep millions of people safe on the main northern island of Luzon. Interisland ferry services were also suspended, stranding thousands.
The weather cleared in many areas on Saturday, allowing cleanup work in most areas.
Cada año, unas 20 tormentas y tifones azotan Filipinas, un archipiélago del sudeste asiático situado entre el océano Pacífico y el mar de China Meridional. En 2013, el tifón Haiyan, uno de los ciclones tropicales más fuertes registrados, dejó más de 7.300 muertos o desaparecidos y arrasó pueblos enteros.
