Ejercito took to Facebook and saw the alarming similarities between the fury caused by Typhoon Carina and the infamous Ondoy. Both storms brought persistent rains and caused flooding and landslides, displacing thousands of people and causing destruction.
“Para pong Ondoy muli itong Bagyong Carina,” Ejercito wrote on Facebook.
