I didn't notice that there were 2 threads for the Philippines, anyway,
I found out that Taal is recently active. PhilVolcs delared it as a permanent danger zone.

taal like mt. mayon has always been an active volcano. they are closely monitored by the philvocs, let us hope that the tantrums of this volcanoes will not escalate as we all know volcanic eruptions are one of the most destructive force of nature.

Wow a permanent danger zone?
I wouldn't be too quick to say "end of the world." The world's tectonic plates are moving around hence all this activity. While it can be freaky, all we have to do is hope and pray for the best (and for the safety of all the fishing communities who live at the mouth of Taal Lake!)

Problem is volcano's historically have always been a permanent danger zone. They are unpredictable and with the current movement in world plates its very likely more things are likely to happen like Iceland.
