Good to hear your family are fine.
People living in mud huts are pretty safe even with big earthquakes. The problem is with those small multi-storey buildings where constructors skipped safety regulations, or they didn't exist. That's why even modest earthquakes can be devastating in some parts of the world.
So what is the real fallout here?
The capital markets in India will suffer, probably lose FDI
Regular people invested in Adani will likely lose their paper gains and anything they borrowed on the basis of this (This is hard to measure)
However, Adani itself will still have much of these tangible investments
Wallstreet fat cats can’t harvest China so they are going for the next best thing.
I'm going to copy paste what I wrote on an another forum so that people here can get a sense of the tragedy:
I'm from the epicenter of the earthquake and my relatives like many others were asleep when it happened. Thank God that they weren't harmed but my grandma's sister broke her back and her children were injured. I've heard that they were stuck under for a while but thankfully they got rescued later and are currently waiting for a doctor to get operated. There are thousands like them who are either injured or under rubble.
People like me who live abroad are having trouble reaching out to their relatives/loved ones in Turkey.
Hundreds of buildings have collapsed. Hell, even my old apartment which I lived in up until like 3 years ago has collapsed.
The sad part is, most of this destruction and loss of life could've been avoided had the government invested more in appropriate measures.
I don't think it's appropriate to talk about this now.
InshAllah it isn't bad as it looks, and the death toll is at a minimum, prayers for you and all your people.
It will be good PR work by working with those South American countries peaceful revealing these balloons are just weather balloons. It will contrasts the militaristic actions the American took and the constant Spy Balloon lies their msm keep spewing.
Controlling narrative and public opinion is as important as truth in PR.
I swear to the old man up there, I will find a way to stop paying taxes. These idiots are fleecing us off while wasting that moolah into garbage projects. How bout funding the NHS or putting some money to tackle the homelessness crisis, what about drug rehabilitation and counter narcotics efforts? Pathetic failed smug little island country still nostalgic about it's previous role of an Empire in the world. Ancestors cry.
