For the victims of the Sichuan earthquake victims...

First of all, lets give a moment of silence for all the victims of the earthquake in Sichuan and others who are affected by it...

































On May 12 2008, 14:28, mother nature had yet again unleashed its fury and this time as an earthquake in Sichuan. It was never thought that an earthquake would occur in this place and the buildings wasnt built to withstand the earthquake. Although I personally dont like the China officials who's trying to grab Taiwan from its own independence, I had to solute them for being able to start rescue missions as soon as 15:00, just 30 minutes after the quake, which I would personally considered quite a fast reaction considering the scale of damage done. Lifes have been save thanks to the fast response of the government to send rescue teams.

One thing that I respect about China people are that they are very dedicated to find survivors, even in the middle of the night. Just 19 and a half hour ago, 12 something in the midnight, they managed to rescue a 31 years old guy from the fallen bricks ad thanks to them, he can still live his life on. Its a relief to hear that China are accepting helps and aids from other countries fast enough, unlike Myanmar who (if not wrong) had only begun to let just Asian aids to go into their country while they're many else aid waiting to reach the helpless people out there.

China had done a great job in helping those people affected by the quake. Tents and shelters had been set up for the victims. Clean water and even hot water are available. Foods are prepared for the victims and it looks actually quite delicious if you ask me. Even tv are provided to let the people know what is going on as time pass by.

To those who are wealthy enough, if can please do donate some aids or even cash to them. For those who cant, lets pray for those who lost their loved ones to have the courage and strength to carry on.

Just what God or mother nature is trying to tell us after series of natural disaster happening in so many parts of the world now, I'm sure someone knows about it. Just a week from the Sicuan earthquake, another quake happened in China again and another one in Indonesia. Thank God for there is no tsunami resulting from this. Something is definitely wrong. Is it caused by the global warming? Is it the fury of God as more and more violence are happening in this world? We dont know. What we can do is only pray. Pray that something would be done to make things right. Pray that this wont happen to the one we love and care about.

Up to date, there has been 34k++ dead and 240k++ injured. Let us hope that the damaged would be minimised as far as possible.

China jia you!!!!!
