Meanwhile UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon expresses his condolences to the Japanese people and government. He says the UN will do anything to assist Japan and Japanese People.
After, Tsunami Google has also reacted quickly and launched apps called “Person Finder : 2011 Japan Earthquake” which helps you find a person or provide information on missing persons. Google’s Crisis Center shows a map of the earthquake, the latest related news and lists links to warning centers, disaster bulletin boards, and train and blackout information.Google’s Crisis Center’s person finder tool currently tracks about 6,300 records, but the number is rising quickly.

ReplyDeleteI felt so sorry when I read the title of this news.How can one be so selfish?What you mean by "Nepali are safe"?I certainly have attachment with Nepali friends in Japan but I felt so sorry for the title of this blog.Nationality is there but it should not be linked in such natural calamities.I felt broken for all who suffered no matter what nationality they are.
ReplyDeleteThat's not our intension. Previously its title was different, you can check it on url too.
ReplyDeleteBut People kept on asking condition of Nepali, thus why I've changed the title. If you feel so, then I'm sorry.
But Again, will change the title.
