This is how Cebuano engineer, entrepreneur and celebrity Slater Young described his hometown hours after super typhoon Odette’s onslaught.Aside from the minor damage they have at home, Slater’s heart breaks as he discovers his business headquarters severely damaged by the strong winds of Odette, last Thursday night, December 16.
“We are safe. Cebu’s a mess. No power. No net. Just got signal. People are lining up for water, food, and gas. We have family members that lost their homes. Liteblock got looted. A lot of our employees are now homeless – using our factory as a temporary shelter for them. We’re trying to help out where we can. Praying for everyone,” read his caption.
Today, Slater and his wife Kryz Uy uploaded a video of what seemed to be an encouragement for others to make noise and ask help. “So we are making this video because we feel like kulang pa yung…. I don’t think Cebu is getting heard, or like the rest of the victims of typhoon Odette. It is because you don’t see a lot of pictures on how bad it is here.
He captioned his video post by saying some of the people don’t get the gravity of the situation in Cebu and it pushed him to make this video. “Mag ingay tayo guys, spread the word,” he said.MAG INGAY TAYO GUYS, SPREAD THE WORDWATCH: Cebuano celebrity couple Slater Young and Kryz Uy turn to Instagram as they make it clear to all those not affected by the typhoon Odette of the gravity of the situation here in Cebu.
