The deaths were mostly from drowning in flash floods, with 127 people still missing, many in the hard-hit central province of Cebu.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Philippine president Ferdinand Marcos Jr has declared a state of emergency after typhoon Kalmaegi<\/a> left at least 114 people dead and nearly 130 missing in central provinces in the deadliest natural disaster to hit the country this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The deaths were mostly from drowning in flash floods, and 127 people were still missing, many in the hard-hit central province of Cebu. The tropical cyclone blew out of the archipelago on Wednesday into the South China Sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The typhoon\u2019s onslaught affected nearly 2 million people and displaced more than 560,000 villagers, including nearly 450,000 who were evacuated to emergency shelters, the office of civil defence said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marcos\u2019s \u201cstate of national calamity\u201d declaration, made during a meeting with disaster-response officials to assess the typhoon\u2019s aftermath on Thursday, would allow the government to disburse emergency funds faster and prevent food hoarding and overpricing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While still dealing with the deadly and disastrous impact of Kalmaegi in the country\u2019s central region, disaster-response officials warned that another tropical cyclone from the Pacific could strengthen into a super typhoon and batter the northern\u00a0Philippines<\/a>\u00a0early next week.
