Response to 2004Tsunami video

           Tsunami is one of the most violent killer among the natural disasters, there are nearly 300,000 people had been killed by this.After watching this video I feel so empathy to all of the victims, they even don’t know or ever think that the next minute they will lost their love ones, some lost wife, some lost kids, some lost sisters, brother and some lost mum and dad. It is just too abrupt to them to accept what they had faced. Moreover, language barriers also caused the difficulty to the victims because while they are get lost, no money and even can’t understand the local language so the situation would be worst. I would say that, it is hard to describe how their feeling is without staying in the same situation. Government should take action to overcome all of those problems. As in the video showed, there is no warning system so the government is the one who taking the responsibility for this.  Government also needs to think about the well distribution of help when demand exceed, who should get the help first, where should the supplies donated  and who has the first priority to get. Furthermore, looting in times of disaster is another point to concern and should be banned as quickly as possible because it will make the victims more difficult to face in the mean time. 
           To sum up, it is not easy to overcome all of the problems in the sudden situation and we can't say it is right or wrong to blame on the government that has no warning system because it is the natural disaster that it would happen without knowing. I would recommend that, people should learn how to pre-caution to all those natural disasters and the government should be paying more concern to it to reduce the number of death tolls of the next disaster.
