The philippines have been battered by typhoons like a made-for-Lifetime Matriarch, I don't think they need any form of tsunami to add to the fun...

Why aren't they reporting the injuries or damage report to the Earthquake in Taiwan? instead they went ahead and reported the tsunami?

I'm assuming because the earthquake was off the coast of taiwan. no one was injured and there was no damage. They are reporting a potential tsunami on the aniversary of the tsunami two years ago.
