Langkawi

I've planned to Langkawi next month on Hari Raya for 4 nights. I've bought the airline ticket dan reserved for the hotel. But I'm afraid of tsunami after Sumatra's earthquake yesterday. Can anyone give some reasons whether keep going there or cancelled it. Many thanks...

Hi

Natural disasters can happen more or less anywhere at anytime so I don't think this earthquake should keep you from going.

If there was going to be a tsunami after the Sumatra quake it already would have happened.

All of Indonesia is on an earthquake zone, just as California is an earthquake zone. No one can predict earthquakes, but it doesn't keep people from living in and visiting Indonesia and California.

Oh don't worry. Langkawi is far far away from Bengkulu (where the latest quake hit).

I was speaking to my sister who is staying at the Datai this week and they were unaffected.
