Later today, September 11, the Philippines will once again conduct a 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗗𝗿𝗶𝗹𝗹 (𝗡𝗦𝗘𝗗), which aims to prepare citizens for possible strong earthquakes in the future. This isn’t just about the ‘Big One’ in Metro Manila; strong tremors strike different regions across the country from time to time as well.

Crisscrossed by active faults and surrounded by tectonic trenches, the Philippine archipelago is one of the most earthquake-prone regions in the world. According to PHIVOLCS, the country records an average of 20 earthquakes daily, though most are too weak to be felt. Still, history has shown that the Philippines is no stranger to powerful and destructive quakes.

An earthquake map based on data from the U.S. Geological Survey (1975–2024), while not capturing every minor tremor, reveals that nearly every region, from Extreme Northern Luzon to BARMM, has experienced seismic activity. The notable exception is Palawan, which has remained relatively quiet in terms of recorded earthquakes.

It’s important to remember that earthquakes themselves rarely kill; it’s the secondary effects, such as collapsing structures, landslides, tsunamis, fires, and flooding, that pose the gravest risks. Strengthening awareness, preparedness, and infrastructure is essential to saving lives.

Get Earthquake ready!

A truly tragic natural disaster. Learning from the past means building better, stronger structures.

A lot of buildings in the Philippines are getting old.
Most weren’t even designed to handle strong earthquakes.
That’s where retrofitting comes in.
It’s a way to make old structures stronger—without tearing them down.
With our European anti-seismic tech, we help buildings stay safe, stable, and ready for anything.
