The death toll in the killer landslide in Compostela Valley rose to 11 Monday as rescuers scrambled to find residents still trapped under the debris, health and disaster officials said Monday.

A radio dzMM report identified the 11 fatalities as Esteban Mahilit, 59, Ma. Christine Labor, 4, Ma. Teresa Labor, 1, Rosemarie Labor, 28, Harold Sanchez, 53, Evelyn Sellano, 8, Aaron Cristine Perando, 9, Alias "Kristel," 9, Cordesito Magnanao, Magamayo (security guard), and Jovencio Anggera, the local village official.

Anggera's 18-year-old daughter, a local radio showbiz reporter, is among those who remain missing.

Dr. Renato Basañes, provincial health officer in the province, said the death toll could rise as more people remain unaccounted for after landslides buried about 45 makeshift houses in Barangay Masara, Maco town.

“More than 20 ang expected [na patay]. Hindi pa talaga ma-account kasi ang iba may mga missing pa,” Basañes told ABS-CBN’s “Umagang Kay Ganda.”

The provincial government has ordered the evacuation of Masara and three other villages, which have a total estimated population of about 50,000, Compostela Valley Governor Arthur Uy said.

Uy said survivors had said more than 50 people could still be beneath the rubble, but there was no way to independently confirm that figure.

Basañes said residents in the village have already been evacuated in an elementary school in Barangay Elizalde. He said residents will only be allowed to go home once the area is declared safe.

Heavy monsoon rains over the past three days triggered two landslides -- one on Saturday and another before dawn on Sunday.

Agence-France Presse reported that villagers joined soldiers in a desperate attempt to unearth a cluster of houses buried in thick mud and rocks on the outskirts of the town of Maco in the Compostela Valley, but there were no immediate signs of life in the rubble.

Army Major Rolando Rodil, whose team was the first unit to respond, said they were woken up by the second, pre-dawn landslide.

"There was a very loud sound, and the earth shook. We were roused from our sleep," he said.

Air Force helicopters have been dispatched to help evacuate the injured, while Philippine Red Cross teams were rushing medics to the area.

In Manila, the National Disaster Coordinating Council said relief supplies had been sent to more than 100 people sheltering in a chapel.

Last year, 10 people died in a rain-triggered landslide in the same area. The Mines and Geo-Sciences Bureau, a government agency, had warned of more landslides after that incident.

In February 2006, a landslide buried the entire village of Guinsaugon in the central island of Leyte, killing more than 1,000 people. With a report from radio dzMM
