    What's the big deal with taal compared to pinatubi before which was considered the biggest eruption for 20th century.

    I just don't get it. Why the sudden fear of Taal eruption?

    Personally, I am worried because it's so close to the country's capital. Not sure if I read it in this thread, pero kung tatamaan pati buong metro manila, 25% of the whole country's population will be affected. Monday nga ashfall pa lang sarado na mga bangko at PSE.

    Ang gusto ko talaga wala maniwala. i hope Im wrong coz if Im right, eh di end game.

    Kaya nga yun sinabi mo narcicist ako , malabo eh. Coz narcicists love to be right. me, I assumed the role of the villain or clown here. Walang keme sa reputasyun, ni ridiicule lagi sa theories ko.

    Narcicists love be right as well as loved.

    Me, I just played the other role. I felt that is my purpose. Ang pinakahirap talaga role sa mundo is to be bad guy so that others have a chance to feel good and right and loved,

    Not thinking of doomsday but Taal is so close to Manila. Even my colleagues abroad are commenting about how close Taal is to Metro Manila.

    I'm thinking worst case scenario, IF what happened to the towns in the 14 km radius, happens to MM, we will lose EVERYTHING (that is why I can empathize with the people who refuse to leave their homes) Our family home and all other properties are in Metro Manila and Southern Luzon. Isang tumbling na lang from Taal yung vacation home namin from the areas with shade/warning in the map ALL my close relatives live in the same area as we do. I don't even have relatives north of Metro Manila.

    This the map that is scary

    Walang base surge sa or metro manila, or even sa nearby SLEX provinces.

    Tagaytay will absorb all the horizontal explosion force coz its 2500 feet above sea level. All those restos and establishments in the ridge, incinerated siguro yun.

    But ashfall will definitely be thicker than Sunday. As well as those ballistic shooting rocks, depende sa force if it can travel greater than 30km or more.

    That's expected. Kaya nga evacuated na yun danger zone eh. What do you expect from areas around taal.?They will be most affected.

    Why worry for something you don't have control over?

    It's relatively close to MM but still not close enough to be as affected as those areas around taal.

    Hindd ganun malayo ma travel ng lava.

    Really worst case: seismic activity in Taal triggers the West Valley Fault, which IIRC extends as far south as Silang and Tanauan Batangas.

    Yes, malaking pinsala ang pwede mangyari.

    Marami ang nalugi, nawalan ng bahay at di makatrabaho kasi dun sila based.

    Wala ako paki sa mga (greedy) big corporations who made windfall profits setting up a weekend getaway for snobs right next to an active volcano. Or the guy wringing his hands because his golf clubs shares bombed.

    I'm talking about the regular folk (even middle or upper middle class) na sa part ng Cavite na yan ang home nila. Wag naman sisihin na "bakit kasi sila diyan tumira"? Some of them, especially yung mga 2 gen or later na di naman na nila kasalanan na yun.

    They wound up there because they were born there, found jobs/livelihoods there or diyan may bumibili sa business nila. Alam nyo naman gaano ka-congested na dito sa NCR, and how much competition you'd face to set up a business here. Except for the uber rich, hindi naman din ganyan kadali bumili or lumipat ng bahay, magrelocate and makipagsapalaran sa ibang lugar, kahit sabihin na natin na sa ibang parte lang ng Pinas at hindi sa abroad.

    kaya malupit yung reaction sa nangyari sa taal kasi tourism place.

    Imagine nagipon ka tapos nagpatayo ka ng bahay jan worth 10million up tapos mabibiyak yung lupa!!! Paano na?

    tagaytay will never be the same sa mga developers. Patayo ka condo tapos bibiyak pala sahig... Nakowwww!!!
