Children sing the national anthem during a community outreach program by UN Population Fund at an evacuation center for tropical storm Washi survivors in the southern Philippines city of Cagayan de Oro in Mindanao on Wednesday. Thousands of homeless residents are still in evacuation centers more than one month after raging floodwaters swept away their homes in the cities of Cagayan de Oro and Iligan. The death toll has risen to 1,257, with another 1,100 missing.
