| Another landslide killed five people in the Philippines barely two days after a collapsed mountainside wiped out an entire community in the central island of Leyte, officials said yesterday. The second landslide hit the gold-rush community of Dipore in the southern town of Bayog, Zamboanga del Sur province, about 850 kilometers south of Manila, said the military and police. The remote town's mayor, Mary Ann Cartalla, also told local radio stations that small-scale mining financier Eric Sumundong perished with his two sisters and two other laborers in the landslide that buried three houses at about 7.30 p.m. on Saturday. |
