2 days ago

Tila sulyap sa the big one ng Metro Manila ang epekto sa Bangkok, Thailand ng lindol na ang sentro ay nasa Myanmar. Pero pina-ngangambahang mas malala ang "The Big One" dahil ang magdudulot ay fault na dumaraan mismo sa kamaynilaan at hindi mula sa ibang lugar.

00:00According to the Big One of Metro Manila, the effect of the earthquake in Bangkok, Thailand

00:07is that the center is located in Myanmar.

00:10But the Big One is more worried because it will cause a fault that will happen in Manila

00:20and not in other places.

00:22Mark Salazar was there.

00:30It's not a joke that the houses in Bangkok, Thailand were hit.

00:44Even if it's not there, the epicenter of the 7.7 magnitude earthquake this Friday is still in Myanmar.

00:52Just think about it, the epicenter is in an entire city.

01:00That's what the Big One feared in Metro Manila.

01:06Because the West Valley Fault is right here.

01:09It can cause a 7 magnitude earthquake if it moves.

01:13And it can affect up to 50,000 people, according to the study of the Japan International Cooperation Agency, FIVOCS and MMDA.

01:23If the Big One in Metro Manila, which is a magnitude 7.2, happens,

01:30it will have an intensity of 8.

01:33This is how strong the earthquake is.

01:36There's shaking, there's fear.

01:39But as FIVOCS said, the earthquake won't kill a person

01:43because of the intensity of the quake.

01:45If it's not the earthquake that can hit you

01:47or the fire that can happen because of the intensity of the quake.

01:53Casualties and fires in the provinces near Metro Manila are not included in the JICA study.

02:00In residential buildings where the construction is not correct,

02:04there's no building permit,

02:06in that scenario, they will fall.

02:08That scenario is a nighttime scenario.

02:11Imagine if that earthquake will happen on a daytime.

02:15We need to update the studies in Metro Manila.

02:19In Barangay Bagong Silangan in Quezon City,

02:23the West Valley Fault is marked by an orange line and a cloud of smoke.

02:29I don't know. I just found out.

02:32Do you know what's going on now?

02:36Of course, I'm a bit scared.

02:39It's the same, the orange line.

02:41God, the Big One is scary.

02:43Let's just pray as much as we can.

02:46Mona Ariate's house will go through the fault,

02:49but she's not easy to relocate.

02:51It's not a problem because it's not totally free.

02:57We will pay for it.

02:59For now, there are preparations being made,

03:01such as retrofitting of old houses and infrastructure,

03:05private or public.

03:07We expect residential buildings, around 12 to 13 percent would sustain heavy damage.

03:1510 to 30-story buildings, around 11 percent heavy damage,

03:20and then 30 to 60-story buildings, 2 percent.

03:23Our government agencies are almost prepared.

03:26There is an emergency earthquake drill, fire drill.

03:29To the local governmental units,

03:32we are also demanding that their building officers

03:39conduct inspections, if possible,

03:43and be strict in giving permits for the construction of buildings.

03:49But Metro Manila is not the only place that should be prepared

03:52because there are many faults and trenches in the Philippines,

03:56aside from Palawan.

03:57All the places here in the Philippines, except for this one, have Big One.
