Contoh teks Report
EARTHQUAKE
A 6.3-magnitude earthquake
rocked the Indonesian island of Lombok on Sunday, sending people fleeing into
the streets just two weeks after a quake which killed more than 460 people.
The quake was centred
west-southwest of Belanting town in East Lombok, the US Geological Survey said,
at a relatively shallow depth of 7km.
Residents said the
earthquake was felt strongly in east Lombok.
The tremor was also felt in
the island’s capital Mataram and on the neighbouring resort island of Bali.
It comes two weeks after a
shallow 6.9-magnitude quake on 5 August levelled tens of thousands of homes,
mosques and businesses across Lombok.
Indonesia, an archipelago
of thousands of islands, sits on the so-called Pacific “ring of fire”, where
tectonic plates collide and many of the world’s volcanic eruptions and
earthquakes occur.
