it is now may. as usual, it is very hot but yesterday it rained here in iligan. so the weather was so pleasant after several days of hot weather. this afternoon it is not also very hot. as for me i prefer hot weather rather than rainy weather.  when it is wet season it is also time for typhoon and philippines is prone to typhoon not like it's neighboring countries like malaysia and brunei. philippines has so many natural calamities like typhoon, flood, earthquake and volcanic eruption. i have not heard malaysia and brunei having this natural calamities. indonesia has volcanoes and earthquake but they do not have typhoon and flood. we cannot escape this calamities because the philippines is in the ring of fire so we have earthquake and volcanoes and it is in the typhoon belt. but i think we can prevent flood if we try to prevent it because in the past, the area that are prone to flood had not been flooded even though it was signal number 3. it must be investigated what cause  the flood.
