There has been lots of talk about a big earthquake about to hit metro manila. I was just wondering if the Marikina Fault Line will hit Fort Bonifacio and the Makati Business District also?

Hi!
Yes, the Marikina Fault Line directly passes through Ortigas Center, Fort Bonifacio, Eastwood City, Valle Verde, and Alabang. It also relatively near Makati Central Business District, Forbes Park, Dasmarinas Village, and Rockwell Center.
Basically, it means that once the Marikina Fault Line starts rumbling, most of Manila’s rich will be rendered homeless and helpless.
Quezon City and the upper cities (north of Pasig) won’t be affected as much as the cities south of the Pasig.

The major fault lines are those trenches running along the eastern region of the Philippines (Surigao, Samar, Bicol, Quezon, Isabela).
In Kalinga Province, two major fault lines pass through a northeasterly direction from Mountain Province to Tinglayan — Mountain Mosimos-Lubuagan-Pasil-Balbalan. Another one passes through the same route from the corner boundary of Mountain Province and Abra to Tinglayan-Lubuagan and ends at Gobgob, Tabuk.
Marikina City is also lying on a major fault line. Another major fault lines traverse the municipalities of Sogod, Libagon, St. Bernard and San Juan to Panaon Island in Leyte.
