Sunday, December 26, 2004 Here's more information about the earthquake posted at 12:07 PM USGS Global Hazards System: Magnitude 8.9 - OFF THE WEST COAST OF NORTHERN SUMATRA 2004 December 26 00:58:50 UTC Comments Malaysia wasn't spared either, due to the proximity of Peninsula Malaysia to Sumatra. If you look at the map in the article, you can see Northern Malaysia across the Straits of Malacca from Sumatra, and two large islands and scores of smaller ones on the coast. Penang is the larger island, while Langkawi is the oblong-ish one on north of Penang. Both were affected by tidal waves after the earthquake. 53 dead and 34 missing, at the last count. -_- http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2004/12/27/nation/9752411&sec=nation Dawn By  Anonymous at Sunday, December 26, 2004 10:58:00 PM   Thanks for the link, Dawn. I was wondering how badly Malaysia was hit. I'm glad to see that you're all right. *hug* By  Heather Meadows at Sunday, December 26, 2004 11:51:00 PM   Post a Comment
