Bangkok had a nightmare yesterday. The city shook as tremors from a powerful earthquake in Myanmar rippled through Thailand, causing skyscrapers shaking (and collapsed too) 😰, leaving people in shock and uncertainty.
While the extend of the damage was still unable to determine now, the incident served as a stark reminder — what if this happened to us in Malaysia?

Reminder: Our neighbour Indonesia is situated in the "Ring of Fire" is highly vulnerable to natural disasters, including earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions.
Malaysia has been fortunate to be outside the Pacific Ring of Fire, but that doesn’t mean we’re immune to natural disasters. Floods, landslides, tsunamis and occasional tremors have made headlines over the years. The question is: Are we prepared?
