Video Tsunami di Jepun 2011
Dan Jepun dah isytiharkan darurat nuklear ke atas negaranya berikutan kerosakan di dua loji nuklear akibat gempa bumi tersebut. Beberapa reaktor nuklear dilaporkan gagal disejukkan ekoran kerosakan sistem penyejukannya. Kerajaan Jepun juga dah bagi amaran kemungkinan berlaku kebocoran radiasi & dah menjalankan usaha memindahkan penduduk-penduduk di kawasan berhampiran (source and source).
Hmm tsunami di Jepun kali ni mungkin tak seteruk tsunami in 2004 yang melanda beberapa negara serentak, tapi kesannya tetap sama - kemusnahan dan kehilangan nyawa. And jumlah kematian masih meningkat & belum dapat ditentukan.
Sungguh rasa insaf bila tengok video tu semua, and simpati pada semua mangsa tak kira bangsa & agama. Moga Allah jauhkan negara kita daripada bencana macam tu. And moga rakyat Malaysia di Jepun selamat & sentiasa dilindungi-Nya.
