Earthquakes in the Philippines
Why the Philippines Has Earthquakes
The Philippines sits on the Pacific Ring of Fire, squeezed between the Philippine Sea Plate and the Eurasian Plate, with the Philippine Fault running the length of the islands. Small earthquakes are recorded every day, and strong ones can strike from Luzon to Mindanao.
