At about 0015 today my Taiwanese friend pinged me on MSN.
Just as I saw her message popping up, i felt a tremor.
Immediately i pinged her back, "earthquake ah?"
It was the second time i felt an earthquake tremor. The first was also in Taipei about 3 months ago. That time it was stronger, i in the hotel room that time and suddenly i thought i saw the lamp stand was shaking and then i felt dizzy for a while and then i switched on the TV and saw the news.
This time however, it last less then 2 seconds and was just a slight movement.
The Taiwan Central Weather Bureau reported that this earthquake was 5.2 on the Richter Scale. The epicenter of the quake is to the south-east of Taipei City as depicted in the diagram below.
