Tropical Storm Ketsana
« on: September 27, 2009, 07:47:17 AM »
since this episode will be featuring Vietnam (both on 1st and 2nd episodes), I heard some quite sad news today from a news cable that Tropical Storm Ketsana which the Philippine name is Ondoy will hit to that country in a day from now in which that storm had really made a big devastation in the Philippines, and when I'd saw the news about it, it really reminds me on the event on Hurricane Katrina, 4 years ago.  So, I hope that storm will not make a bigger destruction to Vietnam tomorrow as what had happened to the Philippines, last weekend, and let's us pray for the souls, victims and fast rescues and reliefs who'd felt the wrath of Tropical Storm Ketsana in the Phils, last weekend. :(

That bitch typhoon's gonna hit Vietnam after rampaging the Metro Manila and putting it into a state of calamity XD.

I'm excited though, at least I'm able to watch the Race tomorrow the same time with all of the US people. ^_^ I'm expecting that line as well next week if the typhoon won't recede. Prayers are always the most powerful tool for this.

I'm worried about my cousin who's living in Marikina, Metro Manila which it hit hard the most when that typhoon had came to the Phils. last weekend.

Yes, could they perhaps do the same thing as TAR 8 and TAR 6 in saying that it was aired before the disaster...?

Poor Vietnam. I remember when Taiwan was ravaged by Morakot in August. Not a pretty sight.

OMG!  Update on Typhoon Ketsana (Ondoy), it's also been reach to Cambodia right now according to BBC in which that country is also feature on TAR 15.  I hope Phil will announce first on the next episode about giving the help and donations to the victim of that storm just like what happen to season 6 after the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami and Hurricane Katrina on family edition if you remember.  We will pray for the safety of Cambodian people as well. :(
