Malaysia is under a tsunami warning
Thank goodness KL is a half hour inland or I'd be crapping myself right now.
Re: Malaysia is under a tsunami warning
Fingers crossed nothing comes from it...I think the authorities are uber cautious with warnings since the horrendous effects a number of years ago of no warning...
(Is KL half an hour walk or half an hour drive inland? ;-) )
Drive.
Good! :-)
They are most likely very cautious but still.
Phew!
And you said that the new king is being crowned today as well? They are most likely being extra special cautious on a day like this...
Yeah, but I think that happened earlier today. It's not a massive massive big deal since being king here isn't for life. There are nine sultans who rotate being king. The new king has been king before when he was a young man.
Just saw that the threat of tsunami has receded! That was a big earthquake though... 8.7...
That must be a relief...
I just read that. They also issued a warning for any country with a coast along the Indian Ocean, including South Africa and Australia, so they seem to be being extremely cautious. But still, fingers crossed for you since you're much closer to where the earthquake happened.
Did you feel it?
Oh! I never knew that! Certainly an interesting idea... is there a lineage for the sultans too? How are they "replaced" when one dies?
Definitely going in the "something new I learnt today" list!
