Tsunami Memory (Mémoire Tsunami)
A big tsunami was approaching immediately after the occurrence of an M9.0 undersea earthquake. But people lost electricity due to the big tremor. TV news were suddenly not available. Car radios and community speakers were informing drivers and residents that a 5 to 6 meter high tsunami was coming. Yet, residents on the North Pacific Ocean were confident with coast levees and shelter belts surrounding their towns, since the levees and forests were mostly 5 to 10 meter high.
To tell the truth, what emerged off the shore was 15-meter high tsunamis which climbed 30 meters high in some terrains when they hit the ground, passing through harbors or inlets and raiding 3 to 5 km inland.
If an authority had been able to correctly find that 15-meter high tsunamis were rushing in immediately after the occurrence of the M9.0 earthquake, most of the victims should have run away from their homes earlier, since it took about an hour that huge tsunamis reached the land from 150 km to 200 km off the coast. Accordingly, 25,000 people were lost in northeast Japan on March 11, 2011.
Indeed, from the beginning, as the M9.0 earthquake destroyed seismographs or made them malfunction, the Japanese authority could not correctly measure the scale of the tsunami. Hours later when they collected data having been measured in foreign countries, the Japanese authority understood that it was an M9.0 earthquake.
This is a typical pattern of wholesale collapse. Nonetheless, lessons are not fully learnt by Japanese politicians, including the prime minister of Japan.
SECTION I: Tsunami Memory
The following video shows how a big tsunami invaded Kesen-numa City of Miyagi Pref., Japan, on March 11, 2011.
In this way, 100,000 houses and buildings were completely destroyed and 60,000 partly demolished while 400,000 cars were lost, making the Japan's GDP dip by 3% or so.
It was all caused by a great earthquake with Magnitude 9.0 energy that happened in an undersea area stretching hundreds of kilometers along the Pacific coast line of Honsyu Island from the north to the south. At the end of the affected area, Tokyo Bay is situated so luckily.
SECTION II: Aid Memory
It was a big surprise that so many peoples and organizations in the world extended support, help, and sympathy to Japanese victims of the 3/11 Disaster.

TAIWAN – JAPAN
Taiwan leads in providing aid to Japan's tsunami victims
Taiwan's 23 million people are the most generous in terms of money and material aid. More than 5 billion TND are raised in a race involving political leaders, companies, private groups and ordinary citizens. President Ma gets personally involved.

Could such a large scale disaster happen in the world in future as the 3/11 Disaster of Japan?
The global warming will not cause such a drastic disaster as a matter of a few hours.
But, once in 1000 years, a very big volcano erupted on the earth, causing a globally low temperature state with ashes floating in the air and blocking sun rays.
Or, as is observed now in China, droughts might prevail on the surface of the earth, leading to shortage of foods.
Anyway, I hope that any terrorists will abandon an idea of stealing and using nuclear material for their cause, as they see how terribly bad the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accidents are.
Rev 6:7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
Rev 6:8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
Rev 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
