The aftermath

It has been a week after Sichuan, center China, was hit by the worst earthquake in 30 years with a magnitude of 8.0 on the Richter scale. Over ten of thousands lost their lives in this quake. The golden 72-hour has passed.

There are many articles and blogs about the suffering of the Chinese people and that’s enough and I am not going to write another one. I was going to write but my heart was so heavy and sorrow after reading articles and blogs on the Internet. I am deeply touched by the heroes who went for rescue. I am deeply touched by pictures and reports of the dead and survivors. I am deeply touched by the Premier of China, Mr. Wen Jiabao. His orders and words echoed so powerfully in my heart that China has risen to be a powerful giant nation.
