...top floors is better.. they'll dig up your remains earlier than those in the basement..

From the map, the fault line appears to be on the area between the Mansions and Canlubang Golf Course.

Way beyond the 5 meter recommended distance from the fault for all of Nuvali's villages

But still, a mega quake will affect all of us, directly or indirectly

once we're invited for a party, a condo somewhere in BGC. guests are ushered to park their cars to the bottom end of the basement parking. (i found most of the buildings at BGC have relatively small/tight floor area).
lintek kung hindi ako nagkakamali i parked my car 9 floors below the ground! hindi ako claustrophobic but i cannot recall how fast i managed to get out of the building that time when i get my car to leave.
basta ang tanda ko umiiyak ang mga gulong ko habang papaakyat sa ground level, ewan ko lang kung makikita pa ako kung sakaling lumindol at mag-collapse yung building na iyon.

but they'll be able to identify your sorry carcass, even if badly decomposed, because of the plate number on the car you were crushed in..
haha.
more ghoulish humor.

ang ayoko sa basement of basements parking.. hindi nila ini-aircon! pa-init nang pa-init habang bumababa... parang palapit nang palapit na sa hades.. or is it because the building's giant engines for gensets and aircons and water pumps are there..?
yung car ko tuloy, after the party.. napaka-init sa loob!

Paano ba kasing nakakakuha ng building permit ang mga building dyan?

imho, buildings built during the 90s can withstand earthquakes to 8.0 magnitude.
ang problema is pag mas malakas dun.

ang makes me also curious.....hindi ba alam ng mga developers like the one in libis na nasa fault sila?

Sadly some developers are in denial and are all about the profits. I was a part of the geologists who mapped the VFS. In 2008 a big developer (whose owners have a popular district named after them) in Cavite blocked our path with a truckload of armed guards and threatened to charge us with trespassing. There is a popular mall in Muntinlupa which straddles the VFS. How they got the permit to build? One can also ask how they managed to cut down those pine trees up north without raising a fuss.
