GUIUAN, Eastern Samar -- French President Francois Hollande took his warning about the need for funds for a landmark climate deal to this central Philippine town that was devastated by a killer typhoon in 2013.
Hollande arrived in Guiuan town, where Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) made its first landfall before claiming more than 7,300 lives, after he and President Benigno Aquino III launched an international appeal to back efforts to seal the climate change accord in Paris in December.
