Senate President Pro Tempore Ralph Recto said the government should consider reviewing the building regulations to ensure that the country’s basic infrastructure will endure stronger earthquakes in the future. “We should improve our building standards to withstand stronger earthquakes as well, considering we are within the [Pacific] Ring of Fire. “DPWH and other relevant government agencies must inspect our transport infrastructure to ensure safety of passengers,” he added. The damage at the Clark International Airport in Pampanga, meanwhile, proved the need to build a new airport, according to Senate President Vicente Sotto III.
