big developers like the ayalas will not allow their properties to go down the drain with one sway of a minor quake. modern structures esp highrisers conform to the highest standards of building codes.
no guarantee that everything is earthquake proof but it takes repeated strong quakes before new buildings will fall down. older buildings have been retrofitted too.
