SINGAPORE: On March 28, Myanmar was hit by one of its worst earthquakes in a century, with more than 3,000 left dead after a 7.7-magnitude earthquake hit the Sagaing region of the South-East Asian nation.
Tremors were felt as far as Hanoi in Vietnam, more than 2,000km away. Tremors were also felt in Bangkok – more than 1,000km from the epicentre – where a skyscraper that was under construction collapsed as a result.
