    From the looks of it, slightly injured lang. She was carried from the site where the white powder is to the other side. Saw her sitting down but an ambulance arrived and they carried her off in a stretcher.

    Good to hear there are no serious injuries.

    Bad to hear because i'm about to drive to that area.

    Noticeably, there seems to be a lot of lacking safety precautions. You're demolishing a building and all you have in the surrounding areas (which are busy with pedestrians and vehicular traffic) are nets???

    its sad to see one of Leandro Locsin's greatest works getting demolished. It is one first high rise buildings in the Philippines.

    That backhoe operator must have serious balls

    They use a very large mobile crane to carry it. Similar to this one:

    In Hong Kong, even simple building repairs lang, you will notice meron mga bamboo scaffoldings with nets.

    Langya, manu-mano pag giba. Aabutin pa ng ilang linggo yan.
    Dapat kasi in-emplode na lang yan. Segundo lang bibilangin, giba na yan.
