The disaster in Japan caused by the earthquake and the tsunami is horrific. Thousands of people are dead and thousands more are presumed to be dead. The earthquake completely destroyed entire villages and towns and destroyed cities. Millions of people are fleeing to camps to get some aid. Millions of people are without power. A real big problem is the nuclear powerplants, because they are afraid of a meltdown.
The overall destruction caused by the 8.9 measured earthquake has caused $100 billion worth of damage to the nation of Japan. I feel terrible about what has happened to that poor country. But Japan will recover over time because they are well prepared for something like this. Japan has the third largest economy in the world. My prays go out to the victims and the people of Japan and I hope I can donate some money to help the relief effort and those who have been affected by this terrible event.
