At least 53 Malaysians killed by tidal waves

At least 53 people were killed, scores injured and 34 reported missing in several parts of Malaysia when tidal waves of up to five metres high hit the coastal regions as a result an earthquake in Sumatra.

Boxing day is meant to be a quiet day.
Today I got news about the tsunami hitting South East Asia. I was not aware until Luc asked me if my family and friends were okay. I thought it was some form of food poisoning at first since I knew people were worried about eating oysters. Spent the day tracking news and family and friends. I even rang Kamatchy but she seems fairly cool even if she must be at the hub working at the Star. I was worried about Kavvie since she was not online - on a Sunday. However, most family seem unaffected and Singapore has not been touched.
