i just watched the news..and it was so terrible. It was one of the worst quakes in a hundred years. 21000 death tolls in total and it is still increasing. Loads of pple are still missing. and millions homeless. it affected loads of countries in asia..phuket, maldives, Myanmar, sri lanka, bangladesh, thailand, indonesia, even in africa bla bla are tourist attractions. its like almost the whole of South east asia are being affected and there are at least a hundred death tolls in each country, mostly comin in thousands. even malaysia is affected..fortunately singapore doesnt suffer from any natural disasters. im not sure why but every neighbouring country got affected..
this is sheer utter terror. millions are left homeless..like the poorer ones. there were some video shots on tv when the big tsunami came in..pple were running and screaming as the humongous tidewater crashed down on the roads and cities, mostly beaches. and they shot a video on the corpses they collected..its unbelievable. there was a group of em that looked like they're petrified (yea like the hermione pose when she was petrified in harry potter) the hardened corpses were frozen in their positions..some had their arms all raised, their mouths gaping.
the news went by country to country..mostly tourists were affected in phuket..Sri lanka was the worst of all. A whole area of dead corpses. it is said that 10 over thousands died and it is still increasing as they slowly gather the corpses as they float. Pple were injured and there was this american kid affected at phuket and currently in singapore who got stabbed by a knife while he was tryina run away cos things were flinging. there was a family with broken legs cos apparently they had ran and hid in a dark room where stuff were flinging around. When i see pple crying and screaming whilst carrying the corpses..tears were welling up in my eyes. And i silently prayed for them. It is the saddest thing on earth. i do feel like crying now. esp the poorer pple in sri lanka and thailand. their family members died and now they're left homeless. It was so sudden. Nobody expected it. even in indonesia...i dont think they're affected by the tsunami but more rather by the quake itself. (the quake caused the tsunami) It is so terrible its like a major big crisis
