The Haiti earthquake that happened 2 days ago is the worst tragedy that happened in this country. It is feared that almost 500,000 died in the Intensity 7 earthquake. Search and retrieval operations still continues as hundreds or even thousands were still trapped in the rabbles, including Pinoys OFWs and Philippines’ military contingents. Let’s continue to pray for their safety.
After this earthquake that shook Haiti, I’m sure we are also bothered or perhaps scared that this tragedy might happen to our country, especially it is said that Philippines has many active fault lines. Just recently, a magnitude 5.1 earthquake was observed in some parts of Mindanao.
I just hope that our government is doing something for earthquake preparedness. We never know when Mother Earth will take its toll on us.
