I agree, not a good sight to see. I can understand food and water being looted, but not electrical equipment. Though these people have just lost everything they own, they don't have home insurance to claim these items back. We could buy most of these things in a months pay, whereas they work for years to buy material things which were snatched away from them in 24 hours by this storm. These people are in a desperate situation.

i agree with you,i dont know maybe people are so desperate after what happened some lose members of the family,houses,everything actually,but then again lotting is not the answer.in my hometown no casualties thanks god to that but the damage in tacloban same as our town people there beg for rice,money,clothes BUT not lotting

Totally understand and agree Brian. It's upsetting to see. It's not a cultural thing it's human nature. It happens everywhere.
Although I never heard of it happening in Japan at anytime.

Beats me what they're going to do with a tv......where they going to put it?

Criminality never ends....even in the face of such human devastation.
