On Jan. 12, a big earthquake hit Haiti, about 50,000 people were killed so far.
The Magnitude was about 7, and the news I saw yesterday said that it was bigger than
the Hanshin earthquake happened in Japan in the past.
Earthquakes often happen in Japan, so the building technology is very advanced here.
However, Haiti is known as one of the poorest countries in the world,
and they didn't have enough money to make buildings strong enough to stand the earthquake, even the government office was destroyed.
Haiti is surrounded by the beautiful nature, but the nature sometimes attacks humans.
I'm very sorry for people in Haiti.
