When Dust Settles in the Sunlight
Written By Lim Lay Hsuan, Malaysia I will readily admit that my life is not an open book, free for just about anyone and everyone under the sun to “read”.

Firm Foundation
Earthquakes are prevalent in the Pacific Rim region known as the “Ring of Fire.” Ninety percent of the world’s earthquakes and 81 percent of the world’s largest earthquakes occur there.
