hello everyone! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />
i love all of u! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/kissyou.gif" alt="" /> thanks for caring so much. malaysia got a wee bit of it, thanks to the island of Sumatera (west of malaysia, see Straits of Malacca) which sadly got the brunt of the tidal wave & the quake. saddest of al are the people of Sri Lanka, who got it very badly as they're the nearest to the epicentre. fortunately there wasn't enough build-up of the tidal wave to make it extra bad for them. indonesia (especially the island of Sumatera) & Thailand (island of Phuket) were hit very badly with tsunami hitting them.
west coast of west malaysia was hit by waves up to 5 metres (approx 15 feet). fortunately it wasn't so bad; some buldings have cracked walls, people shooked up. there are fishermen lost at sea, presumable hit by the tsunami.
The Star; malaysian newspaper New Straits Times; another malaysian paper u can read about our home news as well as news of neighbouring countries there.
blessed be God though, my island of Borneo (east malaysia) wasn't hit. let's pray for those who are lost & who are left behind to suffer the losses.
