"We talk about Sichuan, Nargis, but here is the worst disaster that has hit our nation this year and yet nobody is aware of this"
*Malay Mail pg 2* She was mentioning bout the Kapar storm which affected 5000 occupants from 1500 houses... and in paragraph 14 *Miraculously, only one man was said to have suffered minor injuries*here is the statistic of the Sichuan Disaster 2008
Figure as on July21,2008
69,197 are confirmed dead, including 68,636 in Sichuan province,
and 374,176 injured,
with 18,222 listed as missing
and 374,176 injured,
with 18,222 listed as missing
for more info... please google the Sichuan Earthquake....
as you can see.. miraculous 1man minor injury against the 69197 death, 374176 injury and 18222 missing... and yet, a well educated Malaysian has the nerves to quote that we have the worst disaster which was not being mentioned by the world. I asked the world not to categorize or sterotype every Malaysian because of these few as I've no idea where they came up with this Inteligent idea. Not all Malaysian are as smart as these few... Its No Joke!!
(It is a sad case that the disaster has fall upon us on the 1st day of Ramadan in the Muslim calendar, 1st Sept 2008. Our Decades of peace without any natural disaster has been disrupt by the twister. I would like to ask the world to pray for Malaysia and the people affected by this tragedy so that their pain and difficulties would be eased and no such disaster will fall upon us ever again. it is not the worst disaster of the world this year or any other years... bt a disaster is still a disaster and I would pray for the people affected and I hope so does every Malaysians too)
