Over 400 residents of Sitio Datal Salvan in Barangay San Jose, General Santos City alone remain in makeshift shelters more than a week after the June 8 magnitude 7.8 Mindanao earthquake, unable to return to their homes due to fears of continuing aftershocks and damage caused by landslides.

Residents are forced to endure intense heat and humid living conditions as the evacuation center is built on a community drier — an open-spaced, cencrete area designed for drying crops like corn.
