   it’s a sad moment right now here in Indonesia. but let’s take a good lesson, most Indonesian people, especially those who lived very close with tradition and folk tales, those people are blinded from modern scienses.

   they who died last saturday and keep counting today, died, without knowing anything how to manage theri escape from dead list. I meant, in most advance and modern country, let say USA; there are always a drill, wherever you find it, the drill teach you how to manage escape from earthquake, fire, etc.

   while here in Indonesia… if the “key keeper” said Merapi won’t erupt, then it won’t!!!… while geologist predicted other wise. so, as common being, would you consider the death has a great deal taking those precious lives? I don’t think so… it’s because lack of knowledge and stiff harden neck and stupidity that cause taken too many lives…

   i hope it will never happen anymore.

   the same day the earthquake strike, Mt. Merapi activities was increasing. surprisingly… next day, there’s another two “big” earthquake in Irian Jaya and Sumatera Barat….hmm… a little bit scary though… but Indonesian BMG said Jakarta is away from earthquake disaster… hope so… cause from what I’m studying… most of Java island is on dead list… I might be wrong, am i?

   hell no insurance working here in Indonesia… those creepy blood sucking insurance sales person only want you money. I prefer having legit insurance from outside Indonesia… much more competence and reliable.

   This is truly a tragic event. I have a friend living in Yogyakarta, an Australia, who is lucky and has not been directly affected. He has asked friends here in Australia for cash so he can help make a difference directly. And I have in turn sent his email out to my contacts.

   You know Timor, Bali bombing, death sentences for drug offences, attitude to human rights and free speach… It all goes against Indonesia and provides people here with an excuse not to help.

    weird… I still remember posting on last 1st june. i mentioned about Jakarta being away from earthquake, right? funny thing is… two days ago, on 19 July, Jakarta was panic… wow… panic in the air dude…
    Jakarta got sort of major earthquake, again, luckily no casualty was reported. how ever, that earthquake on sunda strait has manage a tsunami right 2 hours after earthquake strike. yet, there no casualties reported.
    funny but sad, again BMG with so naif said Jakarta is away. let’s imagine the earthquake are closer about hundreds kilometer… the stories would be much different. so, what I’m trying to say… Government and other Human Right Society must act fast to teach people how to manage escape and surviving disaster. not only busy with democracy things which has no evidentially improvment.
    like I said before, the must be whole lot more drills how to manage and survive disaster. hope Indonesian government learn from every disaster, otherwise, folks, you and i can turn our self to become a begger…
