President Benigno Aquino 3rd must be dreaming when he made the pronouncement before Typhoon Yolanda hit the Philippines that the government was aiming for “zero casualties.”

Perhaps he should learn from what the Indian government did days before Cyclone Phailin struck the eastern part of India on October 14, 2013, which was more or less four weeks before Yolanda hit parts of the Visayas.
