Is it safe living near SM Sucat Mall? Are the condos there built to withstand the big one?

There were fears of a really big quake hitting manila but I don't think anything is built to withstand a really big one.

I seriously doubt anything in the Philippines is built to stand the big one or even a medium one. They had a 6 in Bohol last year and even the 500 year old churches came down.

To be honest I'm surprised those tall condo's in Manila don't come down under their own weight what with the shonkey building here. I certainly wouldn't entertain one.

Well we had a 4.7 earthquake last November in Tacunan last year apart from a little shaking there was no damage we live in a loft type house they are supposed to withstand a 7.1 although I doubt if they will, these are built out of prestressed concrete

Here is a link which identifies areas around Manila which are susceptible to different types of catastrophes. Keep in mind that many catastrophes are followed by secondary catastrophes, like fire, famine, and disease.
Have a great weekend! ;-)
