Relatives grieve during a funeral for landslide victims at Puguis village in La Trinidad, Benguet in northern Philippines October 12, 2009. The Philippines turned its focus on Sunday from rescue operations to sending relief to northern provinces devastated by floods and cut off by landslides as the death toll from two typhoons in 14 days rose to more than 600.
