Remembering Asian Tsunami (December 26, 2004)

TSUNAMI MAP - 2004 ASIAN TSUNAMI


The most powerful earthquake in 40 years ruptured the sea floor off Indonesia's westernmost island, Sumatra, displacing billions of tons of water and sending towering walls of water roaring across the Indian Ocean at jetliner speeds into fishing villages, luxury resorts and bustling coastal towns.

2004 Indian Ocean earthquake was an undersea earthquake that occurred at 00:58:53 UTC on December 26, 2004, with an epicenter off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. It is known by the scientific community as the Great Sumatra-Andaman earthquake, and the following tsunami is known as the Asian Tsunami or the Boxing Day Tsunami.

The earthquake was caused by subduction and triggered a series of devastating tsunami along the coasts of most landmasses bordering the Indian Ocean, killing more than 225,000 people in eleven countries, and inundating coastal communities with waves up to 30 meters (100 feet) high. It was one of the deadliest natural disasters in history.

The countries most affected by the tsunami are listed below (in alphabetical order):

  • Bangladesh
  • India
  • Indonesia
  • Kenya
  • Malaysia
  • Madagascar
  • Maldives
  • Myanmar
  • Seychelles
  • Somalia
  • South Africa
  • Sri Lanka
  • Tanzania
  • Thailand

With a magnitude of between 9.1 and 9.3, it is the second largest earthquake ever recorded on a seismograph. This earthquake had the longest duration of faulting ever observed, between 8.3 and 10 minutes. It caused the entire planet to vibrate as much as 1 cm (0.5 inches) and triggered other earthquakes as far away as Alaska.

The plight of the many affected people and countries prompted a widespread humanitarian response. In all, the worldwide community donated more than $7 billion (2004 U.S. dollars) in humanitarian aid.

(Updated) 2 jet fighter engine worth RM100 million missing: King and the Rakyat are betrayed

National security is under threat! Put the air force personnel and officials that involved in the thefts under Internal Security Act (ISA). Is our government daring to do this? The government should not cover-up the case of the missing RM100 million jet fighter engine and other parts of jet belonging to the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF). Read here- Selain enjin pesawat, peralatan lain turut lesap

The fighter jet engine sold to a South American company according to a report released. I scared anything could be happen to us, our country might be sold out by the Force or the government. The disappearance of a F-5E fighter jet engine owned by the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) shows that the country's defence system is extremely weak.


Just imagine what will happen to the country if our military tools sold out by the air force officers and personnel, can we face the opponent during war? Our security is not guaranteed at all! Royal Military Air Force (RMAF) betraying the country and the people. Be careful, its not impossible if our country sold out by the government.

If there is no stern action taken immediately, the government itself should be taken stern action by the people in the next general election. In order to protect the supremacy of our king, the people should punish the government for betraying King and peoples believe.

Is it the result of Biro Tata Negara (BTN)?
Shame of Malaysia, I think this is the first incident in the world of selling the military jet engine to other nation by its own military officials. The world is laughing at us! Corrupted leaders who claim this is an ‘Islamic nation’ but failed to protect the nation under the Islamic laws, where is the ‘Malay supremacy’ when the king is betrayed!

Negarakuku by Namewee

Remember Namewee (Wee Meng Chee)? Wee's sudden rise to stardom is the result of his highly publicized piece. Negarakuku translated as "I Love My Country Negarakuku (Visit Malaysia 2007 Theme Song)". The structure of the song consists of two major components: the rapping, which is exclusively composed and performed by Wee, and Malaysia's anthem, Negaraku, which is split into three segments between the rapping and sung out in groups of two or three verses. The video still available in YouTube.

A music video for the song was uploaded to YouTube by Wee on July 15, 2007, featuring a montage of photographs of Malaysia, a Visit Malaysia 2007 video and a video of Wee rapping against the backdrop of a Malaysian flag. The video ends depicting both a Chinese caption thanking unnamed parties for videos and images provided for the montage, and an English/Malay caption asking not to be sued as he has no money ("please don't sue me, saya takde duit").


NAMEWEE RAISING MALAYSIA FLAG IN HIS RIGHT HAND

The video was removed by Wee amid pressure on July 23, 2007, but copies of the video, including one with English and Malay subtitles of the song's Chinese lyrics, are still available on the site. The videos received an average of over 100,000 hits; a duplicate version of Wee's original video, uploaded in the middle of July 2007, received a total of 1.4 million hits as of early September 2007.

Now he is in Malaysia after his graduation in Mass Communication at Ming Chuan University Taiwan. He stated in his blog that he loves Malaysia very much and will come back to Malaysia thus he did it. Although attacked by Malaysian leaders due to his controversial video , he shows his patriotism and willing to contribute to Malaysia after finish his study. Not like some some of our overseas student, forget Malaysia right after complete their studies and settling down there.
