Filipinos are lovely people and the Philippines is a beautiful, if very poor country. I doubt that there is another country where the people can be more welcoming. The reports show people with literally nothing left, yet they still manage a smile and vow to carry on.
Unfortunately, the country's infrastructure is very limited, and they are destined to struggle with putting their lives back together after this disaster. The rebuilding will take years.

The Philippines needs as many friends as it can get now; that includes countries and also individuals.
