Tonight on south of thailand have tsunami meeting and mourn over a person's death from tsunami , for me sit in my desk and watching HBO series " Tsunami, The Aftermath "http://www.hboasia.comhttp://www.hbo.com/films/tsunami/Tsunami, The Aftermath Part 2Inspired by true accounts, this HBO Films Miniseries Event focuses on the harrowing aftermath of the tsunami that devastated the coast of Thailand on December 26, 2004. In part 2, a reporter named Nick has a covert meeting with Dr. Pravat Meeko, a top meteorologist who years before wrote a report detailing the probability of a tsunami hitting the Thai coast. He works on a potentially explosive story investigating whether the Thai government and resort corporations are concerned about the dangers posed by the likelihood of another tsunami striking the vulnerable coast again as rapid rebuilding begins.
I think that the message of hope at the heart of this piece is really the incredible depth of the human spirit to survive an overwhelming tragedy."

The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake--known by the scientific community as the Sumatra-Andaman earthquake--was an undersea earthquake that occurred at 7:58 a.m. (local time) December 26, 2004 with an epicentre off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. The earthquake triggered a series of devastating tsunamis that spread throughout the Indian Ocean, killing large numbers of people and inundating coastal communities across South and Southeast Asia, including parts of Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, and Thailand
In the open ocean, just 50 centimetres high but travelling at up to 800 km/h. However, the wave s grew and slowed as the sea shallowed towards coasts. Waves were up to 10 metres on the coastline of Sumatra near the epicentre, 4 metres in Thailand, Sri Lanka and Somalia. Distance waves travelled inland: Up to 2000 metres
