A strong 6.4quake rocks Philippines,Taiwan.2008-06-01 09:52:08 - US Geological Survey said that a strong 6.4-magnitude earthquake rocked the northern Philippines and southern Taiwan on Sunday.
Philippine Taiwan"s Central Weather Bureau said the magnitude 6.8 quake hit at around 9:57 a.m. (0157 GMT). It was faintly felt in Taiwan.
The bureau said the epicenter was located in the Pacific Ocean about 340 miles (560 kilometers) southeast of Taiwan"s capital of Taipei, near the Bashi Channel that separates Taiwan and the Philippines.
The epicenter was as deep as 29 miles (46 kilometers) below the ocean surface.
In Manila, Renato Solidum Jr., head of the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology, gave the quake magnitude at 6.3.
He said the tremor was felt in the Philippines" northernmost province of Batanes but was too deep to cause any major damage or casualties.Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the quake had a magnitude of 6.3 with an epicentre about 76 kilometres west of the Batan town of Basco.
The quake was felt strongly in Basco but was barely noticeable in the northern provinces of the Philippines" main island of Luzon, the institute said, adding that aftershocks were expected.
It was also felt in southern counties of Taiwan.
Asia continent in fear of more quakes.
Asian South eastern nation are in severe danger of this threat with Indias nothern belt has also worrisome time. China has more than four thousand quake jolts, with low intensity of tremor in Malaysia,and low intensity quake in India.Kashmir,Uttrakhand and Himachal regions too sit in regions of immediate threat.
On sunday China was rocked with 6 Magnitude shock and 5.4-magnitude aftershock hit Qingchuan county of southwestern Sichuan Province at 2:06 p.m. Monday, according to the China Earthquake Networks Center. The epicenter of the latest tremor is located at 32.5 degrees north latitude and 105.3 degrees east longitude, it said. The tremor was the latest major quake monitored following more than 20 aftershocks above magnitude 5 that rocked the hardest-hit area in Sichuan.
There is no casualty and damage in the area have been reported so far.More than four thousand shocks with low intensity are observed.
These regular quake shocks reflect the adjustment of tectonic plates or more quake in other plates are imminent.
There is an important movement in earth tectonic plates hold on or balancing act within the five major plates of earth and other connected multiple plates on which the other continents are drawn are likely to be storm or quake affected with these regular tremors.
Indian government needs to be in vigil with its disater managment agencies educating its people. Five main tectonic plates on which the world rest with its subsidiary plates takes its shapes according to the main plates and many times gets its overturn in which many lands dissappers with new emergence.
