Tremors


Just 1 hour prior, some buildings in Singapore were shaking.

Office buildings in Raffles Place, like Republic Plaza, Samsung Hub are all shaking. Companies evacuated their staffs.

In SUNTEC, the 5 towers were all shaking. More evacuation. The building I am in experienced mild shaking and vibration.

All these due to the quake in Sumatra. Whenever somewhere in the region have a earthquake, our buildings will tremble..this is kinda scary. As the nation have no history of earthquake, moost of our buildings are not built for counter reacting to an earthquake should it happens directly here. It's all scary and unpredictable.

Let's hope that everything is safe and nothing happens.
