A while ago, storms have hit the Philippines City. The storm damaged the streets of Tacloban. It has damaged the homes and shops. People began selling things on the streets. Philippines were hungry and thirsty. Jimbo Tampol, a man who works for a Coca-Cola distributor, sells cold Coca-Cola to the people in Tacloban. The people from Tacloban buy the coke for 50¢ each bottle.
