Everyone knows by now that a 9.1 magnitude earthquake hit the Pacific Ocean so close to Northeastern of Japan followed by a tremendous tsunami causing a massive devastation to Japan on the 11 March 2011.

Within a day..not even a day, towns near the shore of Northeastern Japan turn into a disaster..

Every pictures that I’ve seen from all the medias is just unbelievable.
They just look so unreal. They are like scenes from movies like “2012” or “The Independence day”..

How can you imagine a town can just be gone in minutes??

I am not able to provide 100% informations over here in Japan, but I hope people would now more about the exact facts of what’s happening. Gain more knowledge and know what to do, how to react, how to support, how to help, how to not go negative.

Being panic, can’t help..
but will make things worst..

We wish not to have worst economy crisis after this tragedy..
