A dog is seen at the roof of a house in a flooded village due to corruption in flood-control projects, which has been further worsened by frequent typhoons, in Calumpit, Bulacan Province, the Philippines on September, 26, 2025. Corruption left Bulacan's flood-control projects as “ghost projects”, worsening floods up to 2 meters deep. Now, after Typhoon Ragasa and as Storm Bualoi hits, remaining residents face grave danger.
