ash,
perhaps we should say that Singaporeans are also a spoilt lot. We should not just ‘thank our lucky stars’ but make sure we are more than marginally prepared for disasters similar to this.

My japanese colleague could not believe that Singapore is not affected by earthquake, tsunamis, typhoon and other natural disasters.
I told her that despite our kiasu education, all our lives we have never learnt what to do in the event of an earthquake, (except to run to the MRT station maybe) she was equally shocked.
And yes we finally concluded that singaporeans are indeed a fortunate lot.
We should thank our lucky stars and stop complaining about living in SG.
