“Basyang” Hits Mariveles

by: Mark William S. Aguilar


MARIVELES, Bataan – the super typhoon “Basyang” hit the town of Mariveles last July 13 at about midnight particularly the location of Brgy. Poblacion where numbers of fishing boats and ships together with some barges were devastated and many houses were destroyed.

In the investigation, the residents are not ready for the unexpected strike of the typhoon because they are unmindful and have no idea how powerful the said typhoon will be.

It was ten in the evening when the typhoon unpredictably shed its force making the power supply to be totally cut off and the Rescue teams, search personnel and navy officers of the government responded the following day to find the dead bodies and missing persons.

Moreover, the investigators reported that the ships and other boats came from different places such as Batanes, Manila, Batangas and even Mindoro and some personnel said that the wind was uncontrollable that’s why they have done nothing but to let their ships be cast away by the said typhoon.

According to the Municipal Mayor Jesse I. Concepcion, they will do their part in helping the victims and to bring back the normal situation from the nightmare caused by the storm.
