Disaster in Nepal


Not long ago, there were disaster striking down in Nepal. It started with a 7.8-magnitude earthquake erupted approximately 85 miles east of the capital, Kathmandu, killing more than 8000 people and destroying a half-million homes nationwide on April 25. Three weeks later, the country was strucked again by a 7.3-magnitude tremor near Mount Everest which killed more than 100 people and triggered fresh landslides.


These disaster also destroyed some tourism places in Nepal, such as Durbar Square and Dharahara Tower.

Dharahara Tower


    In my personal opinion, these disaster would give big influential on economy aspect. Loss of houses, damaged road, and destroyed tourism place are the reason why it will have influence on economy. On the tourism aspect, there will be a decreasing amount of tourists or visitors coming to Nepal because of Nepal's beautiful tourism place which now was shattered by the disaster.

   I heard that Nepal has low-quality of building or houses construction. So, when earthquake and landslides attacked, their building or houses became smashed instantly like a mess. The perfect solution to fix this problem is to upgrade their foundation construction system. Creating a strong foundation with high-quality material is the main key. Of course, the building would be destroyed if it attacked by a high-magnitude of earthquake. But at least, we make effort to minimize the potential of getting decayed.
