The Ecoland Condominium in Davao City sustains serious damage after

strong earthquake rocked Mindanao including Davao City last October 31, 2019.
The powerful earthquake that hit several parts in Mindanao at 2:11 pm on
Sunday destroyed two- story building and left seven others partially damaged at Purok
Lizada, in Davao City. At least 8 families were displaced and evacuated to the
barangay gymnasium.
Rescue workers set up first aid station outside the premises of the building then
monitored damages inside the condominium.
According to the building inspectors, Ecoland 4000 did not totally
collapsed, but portions of its exterior and inner walls have numerous cracks,
some ceilings fell off, most units have fallen heavy furniture, broken fixtures and
severely damaged electrical wirings, which sent off terrified residents into the streets.
At the first aid station, locals told the rescue workers that-they were too
frightened. As it was their first time to experience such panicking earthquake.
Some thought, it was the “BIG ONE” but luckily, it’s not.
