The Philippines wants to say a big thank you to every one who has been helping us rebuild after Typhoon Haiyan.

Typhoon Haiyan is recorded as the strongest typhoon to hit the planet in recent history. Last November 8, 2013, it devastated the Central Visayas region of the Philippines. The number of lives lost and affected is unprecedented.

But ever since then, the world has been one with the Philippines in helping rebuild the nation - from sending relief goods, doing medical missions, all the way to pledging funds for the reconstruction of infrastructure.

This February 8, 2014 exactly three months after the typhoon, we want to be one in expressing our gratitude. We are Filipinos. We are resilient, grateful, and fun-loving people. And that's why even as we are still recovering, we already want to show our thanks.
