Is Malaysia prepared to deal with quakes?


PETALING JAYA: At dawn on April 25, Malaysians living on the west coast of the peninsula woke up to phone notifications alerting them about an earthquake.

The tremor originated around 600km away in Sumatera, Indonesia, prompting them to take to social media to share their rare “shaky” experiences with other Malaysians.
