I also found the Kuril Islands and Kamchatka in the soon to be affected region, but today am looking closely at a city of a million people named Mandalay. I found this picture on Wikipedia showing Mandalay Hill in the foreground, but an awesome view of the mountains in the background there which could turn out to be the location of this earthquake.
Also should mention Mandalay Region and Shan State because they look like they are two different States or Provinces similar to Illinois and Missouri as opposed to saying Chicago or St. Louis especially since we know there is a huge earthquake coming. Someone along the way also commented that they might not have "Reverse 911" in a lot of those far away places and as a result it might not even be possible into the foreseeable future to even get such a message out to a lot of the people that might be affected. When you also include Banda Aceh, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and Phuket you also have to wonder if they even have things such as cell phone service in a lot of those places. Sorry that is a question that I do not know the answer to, as well as if they even have 3G or 4G service, too.
Just sayin' it might not so much be the fact that we aren't getting this message out to possibly hundreds of thousands of people who could be in the path of the next MegaThruster. . . it's as much a fact that there just might be no such system in existence to deliver the message if we were going to want to. At some point there are many who would also need to evacuate such as a lot of the victims of the 2004 Tsunami would have needed to in order to avoid those huge waves that are many times bigger than some of the islands out there that were overtaken by waves.
Someday we might need to routinely evacuate a lot of them as a precaution when there is the potential for a Major Earthquake or MegaThruster heading for them such as there very well could be right now. Thank-You For Reading!!! EQ Guy
