earthquake in Malaysia??

OMG!

just a few minutes ago, near to 2am, my friend sms me saying that she felt her bed was shaking crazily.

i was like what!! i was getting ready to run out from my house. bukan apa.. nak rush out to town to take pictures la..

I didn't feel anything from my place near Gurney Drive also.

Then i posted in Facebook and Twitter to clarify and to see if anyone felt the shake.

Within seconds, more and more updates on Facebook about the shake.

Not only Penang, other places like Petaling Jaya also felt the shake.

earth quake ah??

HELL NO!

Malaysia is out of Lingkaran Gunung Berapi. I don't know what you call it in English.

We can only feel the tremor or side effect from the earth quake.

Somewhere else must be hit by earth quake, i guess.

I quickly sms my journalist friend, he also said the shake you people felt is not from earth quake in Malaysia.

I know we are safe here. So please take this time, just a few seconds, to pray that everyone everywhere is safe.

To all, don't spread news that are not confirmed by the authorities. you can caused unnecessary fear and ok..

No earth quake in Malaysia la. it's just a slight shake, small tremor.

I wonder did anyone run away from their house.

ok u people go back to sleep la. =p

* thanks to Trinie who sms-ed me at 1.58am. if not i still blur-blur watching TV at that time. hehe. she straight away sms me after the shake. and surprisingly i was the few first persons to post it on FB n twitter to clarify about the news. i was so fast. she was even faster to break the news to me. thank you. *
