A major 6.0 magnitude earthquake hit Negros (Cebu region), Philippines on Monday, February 6, 2012, at 10:10:24 UTC, at a depth of 15 km (9.3 mi).  This is the sixth major (>5.9) earthquake to hit in the last five days.  Earthquake activity for the last ten days has been phenomenal. 

Jesus said that this would be a sign of His return in the last days, "Nation will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, there will be famines, pestilences and earthquakes in various places" Matthew 24:7.  The tremendous increase in earthquakes in the last year is evident on the graph below (look carefully to notice the dramatic increase between 2010 and 2011, in that the increase line for 2011 is very close to the edge of the graph).
