The venice of philippines. Lol why not. I think it might really happen someday.

Yup. The usual elevation I see in that city is between 1-2 ft only. I was looking on the facebook posts last night to find the exact measurement of the elevation but I can't find it. I noticed some areas weren't elevated for a meter.. but there were others that were about 5 ft high.

Wow! So your neighborhood didn't get flooded since then? The first story somehow turned into a basement. I'm afraid our city here will experience the same someday.
