According to a latest report, the Philippines government defends itself regarding its efforts to provide assistance and help to the typhoon victims. But on the contrary, the sources have revealed that many victims of the monstrous storm have not received the required assistance.

The sources have also claim that little or no support has been received by the storm struck people and they are still deprived of the basic amenities, which are required for their sustenance.

The typhoon had struck about a week ago and there are many people in the Philippines who are still striving to receive adequate food.

Interior Secretary Mar Roxas said in Tacloban in such circumstances, nothing seems to be fast enough.

He also said the need is gigantic and the requirement of basic amenities needs to be forwarded to the people immediately. He also mentioned that it is very tough to reach everyone at this point of time.

It has also been revealed by the sources that the Government officials have provided different death tolls, both actual as well as estimated.

Maj. Reynaldo Balido, who is the spokesman for the country's civil defense agency, says the figures of the dead people had risen to 2,360. These numbers had come-up hours after the United Nations submitted its reports regarding how many people had died in the storm.
