ROXAS CITY, Capiz – A week after Typhoon Yolanda (International name: Haiyan) battered Central Philippines, leaving death and devastation in its wake, Roxas City, the capital of Capiz Province in the island of Panay, is eerily quiet.
However, in a peaceful park by the sea, the silence is broken as three children sing love songs to passersby in exchange for food and coins. Read the rest of the story here.
