    I guess it is not because it is a poor country, it is because of the georgraphical location. It is in the tropics hence the typhoons. Other countries has also experience natural disasters such as USA has hurricanes and tornadoes, Canada has ice storms, Australia has bush fires and Japan has earthquakes.

    I think a lot of us feel the same pain, frustration and despair :(

    I really wish we had the choice, it just seems sometimes to be one thing after another :(

    We get the extremes here too but the scope is much more limited.

    This was an exceptional typhoon and sadly many of the poor nations are in the equatorial regions :(
