[CONSOLIDATED] Myanmar/Bangkok earthquake

[kuti-kuti]

People now afraid to go into KK 園

How far away was Bangkok from the quake's epicenter in Myanmar?

About 1100 km

For example
SG to Krabi by car

No one cares about Myanmar. Military coup, killing of civilians also no one cares.

You even got the name wrong. It's Burma.

countries with capabilities will not try to help myanmar due to their civil war. who knows u go there help, u won't able to come back.

and also many people in myanmar are dying to come out of the country especially MEN.. this is what i personally hear from my myanmar colleagues who they are trying to get their family out.. either to Bangkok or Malaysia.

tbh, i rather the country rot to its core, since the Junta so gungho, let them rebuild lor.. why shed crocodile tears?

This Thai collapsed building is a government one, so beside just blaming the builder, not sure whether senior officials and developers did enriched themselves and benefited each other.

To be honest no one gives a sh.it about Myanmar. Whether people dies or lives.

They can have annual genocide and no one bats an eyelid.

Singapore is not located in an earthquake zone. The nearest earthquake fault zone is located in Sumatra, more than 400 kilometres away. Over such a long distance, the seismic waves would have dissipated and lost most of their energy. Nevertheless, our buildings are designed to be sufficiently robust to withstand forces generated by distant earthquakes. For example, while tremors from the magnitude 9 earthquake in Aceh in 2004 could be felt in Singapore, there were no reports of structural damage to our buildings. Sorry, that's not direct hit hor

Singapore buildings designed to withstand 143km/h wind gust is not earthquake lah. Should ask whether can HDBs withstand an earthquake. I know those tall buildings in CBD are designed for earthquake

The biggest risk for Singapore is all the cabling are underground.

It's near impossible task to fix it in weeks if earthquakes nearby damaged the underneath structure.

This was answered in parliament. Singapore buildings designed to withstand 143km/h wind gust.

Said we are located far from earthquake fault zone and all buildings managed to survive magnitude 9 in aceh so no need to worry. That was what thailand thought too?

nevertheless bca has standard for design of building for earthquake resistant starting from 2013. based on eurocode 8. But what about buildings before 2013.

Buy 2013 onwards loh, Indonesia so near and always earthquake

Saw the news where the halfway construction building collapsed

Seem like this is the first time earth quake hit Thailand and Myanmar?

Bangkok I read is 1300km away from Myanmar earthquake zone

China developer

 

[joshwong11]

China developer

within china they are blaming the italian architect design now

 

[win_man]

Just checked with my relatives at Chiang Mai area which is damm close to epicenter and far nearer than Bangkok. They said no impact as only tremors felt. Looks like Bangkok will continue to be in my travel blacklist.

Bangkok is already a mess and if kena earthquake damage will be really damm jialat sia

 

[ewng]

Because bangcock so far from epicentre and still can be so jialat...so it's more newsworthy...
