The Philippines has been hit by the recent Typhoon Ondoy, twice the amount of rainfall than hurricane Katrina. Over 80% of the Metro Manila had been submerged in water. Since Sunday, numerous companies and NGO’s and volunteers have been helping with relief goods. Nokia has been active in the relief efforts by sending out over 150 phones to the affected areas and rescue centers so that victims and volunteers can use them to communicate with loved ones. Nokia Philippines has also released charging stations usually found in malls to help keep the juice flowing in affected areas that have lost power.
