Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (R) greets a member of the Taiwan rescue team during her visit to a rescue camp near the farming village of Guinsaugon near Saint Bernard town in Southern Leyte province in Central Philippines February 22, 2006. Rescue workers kept digging on Wednesday for survivors from the deadly mudslide, but some officials said the time to call off the search was fast approaching as hopes faded of finding anyone alive. Around 1,000 people remain missing after Friday's landslide obliterated the remote farming community of Guinsaugon, about 675 km (420 miles) southeast of Manila. [Reuters]
