Strong Earthquake In Hualian, Taiwan, And The Whole Island Trembles


At 7:30am yesterday, a strong earthquake occurred outside Hualian, Taiwan. It was the largest earthquake in the last 25 years. At the present time, at least 12 people have been killed and 821 are injured. More than 500 citizens are still trapped at several locations. 


The strong 7.2  magnitude earthquake also caused a strong shock at the rear of the island. It struck right at the busiest time of commuting traffic. The Metro and railway services were suspended   

immediately. The government is now making all the efforts to ensure that the continuation of transportation and public facilities will be restored as soon as possible. 


According to the Meteorological Bureau, it is still very possible that strong aftershocks will occur in the next few days. 


Gawain is an island that over the 

last several years has been under  the threat of earthquakes mainly because it is located directly under one of the largest earthquake faults in Asia. In addition, the impact of climate change has also created many natural disasters all over the world and has caused immeasurable suffering all over the world.


We hope that the leaders of the  world will adapt accordingly to the changes of nature and strengthen 

all structures to reduce all damage  to lives and property caused by the unpredictable forces that cause these disasters.
