Short letter to the editor about Japanese disasters

Dear editor,
I am a Hwa Chong Institution student and would like to comment on the recent Japanese earthquake and tsunamis. It has been a tragic to them as disasters came up one by one. First, it was an 9.0 earthquake, then a 2.6 feet high tsunamis which wiped across Fukushima, leading to many houses rooted up from ground and 10000 over people died from the latest news report. There is still 17649 people missing and 7000 plus people injured. But the Japanese people were still quite strong as a nation as no stealing of property or food has occurred which is a very good lesson to learn from them. They are still uphold their qualities and knew that there would be people out there helping them.

From this disaster, we could also learn that we need to anticipate such situations happening, although Singapore is at the equator with no natural disasters, we will have to be still prepared for such situations so that Singapore would not be erased out from the world map. Due to Singapore's low land, we could get wiped out completely when a tsunamis come.

In conclusion, I give my condolences to the people in Japan and had donated a small amount of money to our Red Cross society and hope that people would follow me and do such act to "save" Japan!
