Sabah on tsunami watch


PETALING JAYA: In the wake of dozens of tremors in southern Philippines and the Indonesian islands over the past two weeks, the Malaysian Meteorological Depart­ment (MetMalaysia) has put Sabah on a tsunami watch.

The department is on alert particularly for earthquake activities in Mindanao and Sulawesi, closely observing the Celebes and Sulu Sea for a possible tsunami that could sweep Sabah’s coastline with little or no warning.
