CEBU, Philippines – Raw beauty, calm greenery, and pristine turquoise waters – this is Malapascua, a tropical island on the north coast of Cebu. Underwater, the breathtaking marine life is not only a paradise to man, but is also the only haven of the Pelagic Thresher Shark.
On November 8, 2013, typhoon Haiyan struck. According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UN-OCHA), Haiyan devastated some 5.9 million workers in central Philippines. Malapascua’s picturesque shores turned into a wasteland.
Among these million workers is Ronel, a dive guide from the Malapascua Exotic Beach and Dive resort. This video from Biemann PH tells the story of his loss and how he and the island bounces back – Rappler.com
