Indonesian dead alone may exceed 400,000
Indonesia's ambassador to Malaysia said today that his country's death toll from last weekend's earthquake and tsunami could top 400,000 souls. One city of 150,000 has only been surveyed from the air. Surveiallance found the city entirely destroyed with no sign of life. The same was true for another city of 76,000. Several populated islands off the Sumatran coast seem to have disappeared altogether.
