It really scared the hell out of me,Experienced one today at 3:45 bahrain time of 6 magnitude.It happened in Iran but the waves came till Bahrain and I was in my company,felt shaky a bit and I didn't realize it that it was an earthquake but later when saw it on the news,I was literally shivering.
The thought which scared me a lot that I am not with my parents and I am in a different country.God please don't let Such thing happen with anyone.
God be with people in Iran,And give them place in heaven who have died.
Amen.

Hope everyone is ok there. I have been through many earthquakes. We had a big one here in Oct. 7.3. I was lucky only minor damage to my home. And none to us. Glad you are ok there.

Good to see you're still with us. My parents said there was an earth quake here while I lived in another state going to school. I've never experienced one myself yet.

Hi
dear Raj, I´m so sorry to know that you were scared. But I´m happy to know that you are fine now. I have read the news, as I´m waking up. I´m so sorry for Iran losses. We have experienced some earthquakes when we lived at Mexico City. They are very dangerous when they reach higher magnitudes. Have you done research about Bahrain floor? Have you done safe simulation in your office? Don´t you have frequent evacuation simulations?
At Mexico City Safe Evacuation Simulations are set by the law. One each six months, at least. Here at Leon, one a year is a must.
What about Bahrain? I´m happy to know you are safe now.
Have you phoned home?
Blessings Raj... dainy

hola amiga,
I hope your day is going fine and you are taking care of yourself.
Well,I haven't done any research about what you say,And there is no such evacuation simulations because this country is not much prone to earthquakes.
I am happy to know that mexico has such good rules which are helpful to be alert and not to panic during such situations.
Thanks dear for your concern but m fine now,as we chat yesterday night i mean day time in mexico.I had a word home,but I haven't told them ,as I don't want them to be worried about me.I hope i did the right thing.
Take Care
RAJ

Dear:
One of the most effective ways to avoid scammer is to find a third party a buyingagent in China to do every work for you,Usually the Chinese buyingagent will find different suppliers for you to Choose the most competitive one both in price and quality,And act for you the quality control service in China and following up orders in China for you.In most condition,it saves you a lot of work and risk.The cost for the agent is not high,ususlly only 3%,some experienced sourcing agent such as sino Biz (China)Bussiness Service CO.,LTD(3W dot China-buyingagent dot com)would be very helpful in sourcing in China.

I am glad you are ok. I can relate to the fear..I live in California and have experienced a few quakes. For me it's not just the initial quake but the after shocks that are most frightening since you never know when the next one is coming or how long it will last. Hope that is your last experience with a quake
