The world is not the same.
Today world is different in 20th century. We have more wars and natural disasters than before.
On December 26th, 2004 morning, a quake hit Indonesia and created massive wave or tsunami. It was the first hit the Asia. The India and Malacca Straits had not encountered any tsunami before, the community did not realize the danger of it. As such, many people got killed.
On other hand, a few hams had helped Thailand government to respond for the communication needs. During the disaster, the best communication is walkie talkie (does not matter it is portable or mobile). As long as it can transmit and receive is a good equipment.
Penang island near to Golden Sand Resort area, patrol cars could transmit their police radio frequency to the Penang police headquarter. Civil Defence Force does not have a repeater and cannot report their rescue operation to the base, too. Thanks to Motorola Penang, they provide some helps such as set up a temporarily repeater for the police. The Penang government let some walkie talkie to the Civil Defence Force for their operation.
Certain people will tell you that this year is not a good year. There will be natural disasters here and there. In short, we should prepare for any worse happen to us.
