Entry: Glorietta bombing. Monday, October 22, 2007



T'was Oct 19th around 1:30pm when a breaking news shocked the Filipino community. I was at work when my bro messaged me in YM. "Walang pupunta sa Glorietta." "May bombang sumabog!" And I'm like, "I was just there last night!" Geez! Whatta shocking news! To think that I always, i mean ALWAYS, go there. My hon and I always meet up there. And where the "bomb" was planted was our way for my ride home.

It was said on the news that police speculated that liquefied petroleum gas (
LPG) tank caused the explosion, specifically from Luk Yuen restaurant. But according to the Operations Manager of Luk Yuen that the restaurant doesn't use LPG in their kitchen. Whatever it is, the bombing caused a lot of damages. 8 people killed and hundreds wounded. Oh, I just recently read articles from the internet and it said that the number of people killed during the incident climbs to 11. and according to a PNP chemist that they have found residues of the C-4 bomb component "RDX" in the explosion site.

" RDX stands for royal demolition explosive, an ingredient in C-4, also called cyclotrimethylene-trinitramine (C3H6N6O6), which is made up of polyisobutylene, the binder, and di(2-ethylhexyl) sebacate and the plasticizer, which makes the element material malleable. "


Thank God everybody warned me about this. I ain't going to that mall again.. or any Ayala mall, perhaps. It's so dangerous nowadays... very dangerous. Take care peepz. Stay safe and don't forget to pray everyday.


My warm condolences to the family of the victims.
