Burial of bodies in Tacloban to be finished Tuesday


Former Senator and now ‘Yolanda’ rehabilitation chief Panfilo Lacson says authorities expect to finish the burial of typhoon victims around Tuesday next week.

Some typhoon survivors have been complaining about the stench of the decomposing bodies, adding that they are frustrated by the government’s slow handling of the remains.

‘Yolanda’ barreled through the Visayas nearly two months ago.

In Malacanang, Deputy Presidential Spokesperson Abigail Valte says forensic experts have already returned to Tacloban to resume their work after the holiday break.

So far, the death toll from ‘Yolanda’ stands at 6, 166, with 1,785 others still missing
