Another earthquake hit Indonesia today 5:29 p.m. The earthquake took place in Kepulauan Mentawai region. So far no damage reports have been issued.

However, many Indonesians panicked and fled to the mountains fearing another major Tsunami. Fortunately, the earthquake was not strong enough to generate a tsunami. But sources say that the vibration could also be felt in Singapore.

The last big earthquake in Indonesia took place Dec 26 last year. Over 180 000 people were killed (of which 126 000 was in Indonesia), over 120 000 people are still missing.
