So this week for the current events post, I will be writing about another tragic disaster that happened in Indonesia.
Sad story again. On Thursday October 13th, a powerful earthquake hits the Indonesia's resort of Bali. The Indonesia's geological agency said the quake's magnitude is at 6.0 . No tsunami alert was reported, but the discrepancy was not immediately clear out to people. This earth quake left at least fifty people injured. But fortunatley, no death was reported.
Most injuries are some cuts, broken bones, and head injuries.
There are twelve students and three teachers who got injured because the ceiling of their high school caved in.
Tourists and visitors were all frightened and were all in panic because it was chaotic. One of the hotel managers said everyone was scared and ran out of the building. Good thing that no buildings had fall down, and no one dies, but some effects are made in the hospitals too.
Some pictures shows huge damages had made to cars, houses, and walls...etc.
Some students can not go to school anymore since the ceilings and walls of the classrooms had fallen off and damaged. It will take some time for remodeling everything, and getting all the materials and furnitures back for the students.
The report also says, the quake struck about sixty kilo meters beneath the ocean floor.
I feel sad for the tourists and visitors because they were suppose to be there for vacation, but now they got injured and scared. It ruined most of their trips, but luckily no one dies.
Another place on earth needs reconstruction again... :(
