Malawi scrambles to deal with deadly floods

Malawi is a country in south eastern Africa. Lately they have been having so much rainfall it has caused terrible flooding. As of right now they believe that more than 170 people have died. Thousands have been evacuated, either with helicopters or on boats. Despite the many warnings from the government to evacuate many people do not want to leave. They have been seen to be sleeping on roof tops or even in trees. So many people have been assisted that there are not enough supplies to go around. For example they are in need of tents, food, medicines, and much more. More reports from the government says The flooding has destroyed everything, from homes to crops. The people's biggest fear is that after all the rain fall no one will have anything left. To make matters worse has a population of 13 million people and is still considered one of the poorest countries in the world. What can people that don't have really have much to begin with do when they lose everything else? It is really sad to hear all of this stuff going on. In situations like this it seems like there isn't really much the people can do until all the water is gone. Then they have to work together in order to build everything back up. They will face a lot of problems and struggles, but like J.Cole says "There is beauty in the struggle, ugliness in the success." Eventually from all of this bad they can work together and with help from other countries, can get back to where they were or even better. Hopefully the UN will also be assisting them as much as possible after all the rain. I also wonder why after all the warnings people would still want to stay? Could it be they are afraid to come back to nothing, so they would much rather stay with their things and go with them? If so it seems like a really sad way to live but then again how else would you live when you don't have much else to live off?  (Full article) (Article from UN)
