Quake + Tsunami hit indonesia 2018 Sept 28 GVGT! Hundreds UP LORRY so far!

What a bunch of fucktards!! This wouldn't have happened if PAP was in charge.
- Indonesia's geophysics agency lifted a tsunami warning 34 minutes after it was first issued following a major earthquake that sent huge waves crashing into the northeastern coast of Sulawesi island, killing hundreds and leaving thousands more homeless.
The 7.5 magnitude quake and tsunami, which hit the city of Palu about 1,500km from Jakarta and further along the coastline, killed at least 384 people. Officials said on Saturday (Sept 29) the death toll was likely to rise.
Hundreds of people had gathered for a festival on the beach in Palu on Friday when waves as high as 6m smashed onshore at dusk, sweeping many to their deaths.
The geophysics agency (BMKG) faced criticism on Saturday on social media, with many questioning if the tsunami warning was lifted too soon.
The agency said it followed standard operating procedure and made the call to "end" the warning based on data available from the closest tidal sensor, around 200km from Palu.
"We have no observation data at Palu. So we had to use the data we had and make a call based on that," said Rahmat Triyono, head of the earthquakes and tsunami centre at BMKG.
He said the closest tide gauge, which measures changes in sea level, only recorded an "insignificant", 6cm wave and did not account for the giant waves near Palu.

Indonesia should have a super volcanic eruption, and MEGA quake sending Tsunami twice the hight of MBS to Singapore. Sinkee copse will be all washed to JB. Rotting in the palm oil plantations and fed to wild boars.
