Quiet countdown


MALAYSIAN listeners ushered in 2005 with a sense of sadness and quiet reflections following the immense deaths and destruction by the tsunami that struck barely a week before New Year’s Day.  

As far as I could remember this New Year countdown was the first ever when the stroke of midnight wasn’t marked on radio in the usual boisterous style, with noisy chatter and music from the deejays.
