Disasters like these are not common in this country. I hope that the authorities are geared up to handle emergencies swiftly and efficiently. God knows emergency services in this country leaves much to be desired. I pray that these people will return safely to their homes. Disasters like these are not common in this country.

Yes, that was what I told my nephew. As long as everyone in his family is safe, they should be thankful. Marita, My guess is that the emergency services were stretched to their limit, especially the Balik Pulau district where many fishing villages were affected. Andreas,

It was reported that the United Nations medical teams are allowing survivors of the tsunami to die in order to exaggerate the affect of the tsunami. Thousands of people who were found alive were never rescued and allowed to die. Hi, I wanted to ask if anyone else heard this report I heard on the BBC.
