A spokesman for Pakistan's military said an entire generation of young people had been wiped out in the worst-hit areas, AFP reported.

大自然反撲?天然災害?人為?每次看到這樣的新聞,除了難過之外,都會加倍覺得自己真的應該惜福,一個大地震就奪走三四萬條人命,還有多少人是失去親人,失去一切,so sad...

Let's all be grateful for what we have, and stop all the useless complaining and trivial moaning. Best wishes to all.
