The Philippine government has identified an 8-hectare relocation site for hundreds of thousands of displaced people in the eastern province worst-hit by Typhoon Haiyan, according to dpa. The lot is owned by the city government of Tacloban, the capital of Leyte province, according to Eduardo Del Rosario, head of the national disaster relief agency. "We have found a relocation site to put up houses for the displaced," he told reporters in Manila. "We will start to level the ground tomorrow." More than 356,000 evacuees were staying in dirty and cramped evacuation centres in the province after Haiyan triggered tsunami-like waves flattened their homes.
