A pedicab driver makes his way along a road flooded by Typhoon Fengshen as it rolls over in Manila, the Philippines, June 22, 2008.
Fengshen, with gusts of up to 195 kph (121 mph), tore through the centre of the archipelago on Saturday, devastating the province of Iloilo, where officials said at least 59 people had been killed in floodwaters more than two metres high in places.
