Remember that Glorietta is inter-connected and perhaps even the electricals are. So why open the next day and say that it is now "safe" structurally or "secured" in terms of threats?

They did check the structural integrity of the mall before they opened the areas that were undamaged. But i guess the important thing is to not to let terrorists, regardless of source or intent, hold sway in our lives. During the 2005 bombing of the London transport system where 4 bombs exploded leaving more than 50 dead, the English defiantly went on their routine the next day. While it is certainly wise to be cautious when we are in these areas, extreme measures such as boycotting malls and avoiding public places just give terrorists the feedback they want, and thus, encourage and embolden them to continue their assault on our way of living. I surmise that this is more the reason behind the opening of the mall the very next day.
