Earthquake witness

Reports from Singapore
I was working on my laptop and I started swaying. I thought I was too tired and needed rest. Until I realized that it was an Earthquake.
—Isaiah Tay, Singapore

Yes, I did feel the tremors. As I was working on my laptop on my bed, I could feel the bed shaking, and when I tried to see what is going on, the hanging wires from my switch board, were shaking like anything. I have a table fan, at a little distant, and is also has hanging wire, as I connect it only temporary....The wire was shaking as if someone is continuously moving it.
—Sonia Sodhi, Singapore

Extended tremors 
Extended tremors felt in Kuala Lumpur — my first experience of an earthquake so I found it difficult to judge — but strong and long enough for me to leave my 31st floor apartment in bare feet... Getting in the lift (bad decision?) and going down, many other residents were also evacuating. We stood around outside and talked over the experience — all of those who had been in KL on December 26th said this felt worse... We spent about an hour outside and I'm now back in my apartment, although from the many cars leaving the car park it was clear that many residents were leaving to stay with friends & families...
