Isn't it horrible how something like that is liable to happen and kill all of those people. I mean there wasn't much that the countries could do in preparation for something quite so severe. :(
I don't think it would have been worse on land though, because it would be more localised and the Tsunami would never have occured.
On the other hand it is quite remarkable how the world is uniting in donating aid and helping out the affected.
Please donate to a charity helping to combat the diseases and hunger caused by the awful power of mother nature. ;)

As far as I understand Thailand had been warned. Even by the US.
But they decided, domestically, not to warn people because 1. it would probably not be soo bad, 2. they live on the tourism...

still there was not much they could have done without causing harm (riots, mass migration)

It would have saved ALOT of lives, that's for sure.. all those little children on the beach etc.
Never ever don't tell about an upcoming accident!
