earthquake history
Where can i find the current and past history of volcanic and earthquake activities in puerto princesa?
the current and past history of these activities, a map, and pictures
This will be too much detailed information to be found on the web so I suggest that you contact the PAG-ASA (Philippine Atmospheric Geologic... I forgot the "ASA") office there and you can get more detailed information. The contact details of PAG-ASA are what you can google.

Haiti's history of hardship
What is the highest magnitude an earthquake can reach?
I have seen in recorded history up to 9.0. Can an earthquake be of any higher magnitude than this?
an earthquakes magnitude is based on a "Richter Scale" of 1.0-10.0
Just to give you an idea of the impact of something that large
Less than 2.0 not felt. About 8,000 per day
2.0-2.9 Generally not felt, but recorded.
3.0-3.9 Often felt, but rarely causes damage.
4.0-4.9 Noticeable shaking of indoor items, rattling noises. Significant damage unlikely.
5.0-5.9 Can cause major damage to poorly constructed buildings over small regions. At most slight damage to well-designed buildings.
6.0-6.9 Can be destructive in areas up to about 160 kilometres (100 mi) across in populated areas.
7.0-7.9 Can cause serious damage over larger areas.
8.0-8.9 Can cause serious damage in areas several hundred miles across.
9.0-9.9 Devastating in areas several thousand miles across.1 per 20 years
10.0 Never recorded; Extremely rare (Unknown)
