Powerful 7.6 magnitude quake prompts panic in Philippines; tsunami warning dropped

MANILA, Philippines — A powerful earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 7.6 struck Saturday off the southern Philippine coast, prompting many villagers to flee their homes in panic around midnight after Philippine authorities issued a tsunami warning.

The quake struck at 10:37 p.m. at a depth of 20 miles, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. There were no immediate reports of major damage or casualties.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center initially said that based on the magnitude and location, it expected tsunami waves to hit the southern Philippines and parts of Indonesia, Palau and Malaysia. But the center later dropped its tsunami warning.

In Japan, authorities evacuation orders were issued in various parts of Okinawa Prefecture, including for the entire coastal area, affecting thousands of people.

Teresito Bacolcol, the head of the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology, told The Associated Press his agency advised residents along the coast of southern Surigao del Sur and Davao Oriental provinces to immediately evacuate to higher ground or move farther inland.

Owners of boats in harbors, estuaries or shallow coastal waters off the two provinces should secure their boats and move away from the waterfront, the quake agency said in its tsunami warning. Boats already at sea should stay offshore in deep waters until further advised, it said.

Are earthquakes happening more? What to know if you're worried and how to stay safe.

Based on the quake's magnitude, Bacolcol said a 3.2-foot tsunami may hit but the wave could be higher in enclosed coves, bays and straits.

Villagers were fleeing their homes to safety around midnight in Hinatuan town and outlying areas in Surigao del Sur province, according to authorities and the government's disaster-response agency, which said that it could not immediately provide specific details.

More than three hours after the quake hit, Bacolcol said there was no report of a tsunami hitting the coast from his agency's field offices but added authorities would continue monitoring.

The Philippines, one of the world's most disaster-prone countries, is often hit by earthquakes and volcanic eruptions due to its location on the Pacific "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the ocean. The archipelago is also lashed by about 20 typhoons and storms each year.

The celebrations continue for Filipino American History Month in the U.S.!

Carson is the place to be on the 21st! COME JOIN US!!!!

The Unshakable, Unique and United in the Filipino American Community

Back-to-back-to-back events are happening on October 21 as TFC brings the best of Filipino American talent in celebration of Filipino American History Month.

The City of Carson culminates their Filipino-American History Month celebration with a special tribute to union leader Larry Itliong in the morning, followed by TFCU Talks ‘Rise Up’ in the afternoon.

Various organizations will join the entire community in honoring the life’s work and legacy of Larry Itliong – a Filipino-American labor leader and organizer, starting with a tribute march at 9 a.m. around the vicinity of Veterans Park located at 22400 Moneta Avenue in Carson followed by a labor awards ceremony.

This year’s Larry Itliong Labor Awardees are Luisa Blue, elected Executive Vice President of SEIU International, and AFSCME Local 809, a City of Carson employees’ union. Vocalist, music producer and TV personality Annie Nepomuceno will headline the performances after the parade. The event is free and open to the public.

City of Carson Mayor Albert Robles proudly shares that “the City of Carson is the first city to recognize the contributions of labor union leader Larry Itliong. We are proud to have this annual event and proud to have been instrumental in the movement to get AB 7 passed in Sacramento to have October 25 recognized as Larry Itliong Day throughout California.”

In the afternoon of October 21, TFC’s student outreach, TFCU (TFC University) will host a free youth symposium and networking event called TFCU Talks ‘Rise Up’ at 3 p.m. at CalState Dominguez Hills University Theatre. TFCU Talks is an opportunity for students and young professionals to connect with successful industry leaders who share their stories and experiences to empower the next generation.

“The ‘Rise Up’ theme was inspired by Larry Itliong’s leadership with the Delano Grape Strike of 1965. What he did to start the farm labor movement in this country is a great example of standing up for what is right, using your voice, and owning your power to create positive change. We want to remind those who attend TFCU Talks Carson that they, too, have the power and ability to do the same with their talents, gifts, and passions,” said TFCU Program Manager Romeo Marquez, Jr.

Featured speakers for TFCU Talks “Rise Up’ in Carson are actress/philanthropist Monique Coleman, LA City Commissioner Joel Jacinto, and paratriathlete Rob Balucas. Musical artist Low Leaf and the Miniotics dance crew will be performing. Registration starts at 2:00 p.m. Click here for more information on TFCU Talks.
