Peter heard this story from someone when he attended a relative?s wake (death not related to the earthquake/tsunami) in Balik Pulau just now. There was this Malay family of father, mother and five children who went out to the beach to gather fishes that was brought in by the first few smaller waves of the tsunami in one of the fishing villages near there. While they were busy collecting the fishes, another big wave caught them and dragged them out to sea. Both parents survived with serious injuries but all the children perished, one who was still an infant. I hope this is just a tall tale but if it is true, this is a sad day indeed.
