Well, the US should provide aid to Taiwan
Even with so a strong earthquake, the building Holds up and does not collapse killing everyone in it!
Great buildings and laws in the country follow the procedures and you can see the results in hard times like this.
Praying for Taiwan you will deal with the consequences! ❤❤❤

Wow…I never thought that buildings in Taiwan are so strong and don't collapse even if the ground subsides
I was in my work building in new Taipei. Suddenly it happened. I went under the desk. Computer screens, and other stuff were falling down. Scary and longest moments in my life.
Comments vanishing.
I’ve tried several times to post congratulating the constructional design. Within seconds the comment vanishes. Why?
THE EART IS ALIVE
