• Resumen

  • Typhoon Haiyan, which left a trail of destruction across the central Philippines on Nov 8, is living up to its status as one of the fiercest storms ever recorded to hit land. Disaster relief teams are pouring into the Philippines from all over the world, trying to get aid to victims amid a jungle of severed roads, shattered buildings and downed power and telecommunications lines. Here, MacKenzie finds out how social media is helping the relief effort in the Philippines.
