**Earthquakes in the Philippines: A Constant Threat Due to Pacific Ring of Fire** The recent earthquakes in Batangas and Lanao have once again highlighted the Philippines' vulnerability to seismic activity. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) has issued a primer to explain the country's geological and tectonic location, which places it in the Pacific Ring of Fire, a region known for frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. On Saturday, a major 7.6-magnitude earthquake struck in the Philippine Sea, according to the United States Geological Survey. This comes on the heels of a nagging question that resurfaced after a magnitude 7.8 earthquake hit Turkey and Syria: what if the theorized destructive "Big One" hits the Philippines? A Metro Manila risk assessment estimated that a magnitude 7.2 earthquake on the West Valley Fault (WVF), also known as "The Big One," could result in significant casualties and infrastructure damage. According to Phivolcs, the provinces that would experience the greatest impact include the National Capital Region (NCR), Cavite, and Bulacan. To prepare for such a scenario, experts recommend updating the building code to prevent major damage, conducting regular earthquake preparedness drills, and educating the public about earthquake risks. Phivolcs also provides a map showing the nearest fault line in each city, allowing residents to assess their risk. The Philippines has experienced numerous devastating earthquakes in the past, including the 1990 Philippine Earthquake, which killed over 1,600 people. The government has implemented various measures to mitigate earthquake risks, such as the World Bank-funded Philippines Seismic Risk Reduction and Resilience Project. However, it is essential for individuals and communities to remain vigilant and take appropriate measures to protect themselves from potential earthquakes.
