    I have not seen them use it yet, but eminent domain does exist in PI. See Eminent domain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Eminent domain (United States, the Philippines), compulsory purchase (United Kingdom, New Zealand, Ireland), resumption (Hong Kong), resumption/compulsory acquisition (Australia), or expropriation (South Africa, Canada) is the power of a state or a national government to take private property for public use. However, it can be legislatively delegated by the state to municipalities, government subdivisions, or even to private persons or corporations, when they are authorized to exercise the functions of public character.[1]

    Just shoddy Philippine construction and corner cutting. It is possible to build further out to sea....just not with the levels of corruption and thievery in the Philippines.
