Beauty of the Phillipines

Things to watch out in the Philippine scene...

1. Plugs without ground wires...no surprise that it's easy to catch fire here...

2. Cheap cements that crack when wet...that is why constant reconstruction must be done...

3. Cheap water bottles that melt to cause cancer...I don't know if this is still global,but I don't think so...


4. Drainage sites that clog when it rains hard...what's their use again?

5. "Mono-cables" (wires that are made up of only 1 strand of metal,not the usual two) that are 20-50 years old...another fire hazard...

6. Termite-infested government buildings...a magnitude 3 earthquake could make it crumble...

All these are the engineering "de-feats" that we, Filipinos, are very proud of...I might add some more...so much more..
