My Way News - 1,100 missing in China as Asian flood misery rises
My Way News reports: "Rescuers in three countries across Asia struggled Tuesday to reach survivors from massive flooding that has afflicted millions of people [...] In Pakistan, the United Nations said the government's estimate of 13.8 million people affected by the country's worst-ever floods exceeded the combined total of three recent megadisasters - the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the 2005 Kashmir earthquake and the 2010 Haiti earthquake."

Comment: This flooding represents a megadisaster larger than three recent megadisasters. Wow.
