A photo nearly 6 open source earthquake points on the Richter scale, which occurred at the beginning of the month in Malaysia, became, according to local experts, the most powerful last century. Since 1897 no less has happened here eight dozen tremors, but all of them were much weaker, than recent natural disaster. By the way, the local clergy immediately found guilty of what happened.
Malaysian clerics say they are to blame tourists. Visitors must have met a small need on Mount Kinabalu, which is easy to assume, since the climb is very long. This disrespectful attitude to the sacred place caused tremors. Representatives of the clergy are sure that tourists must pay a fine of ten buffalo.
According to local beliefs, Mount Kinabalu serves as a vacation spot for the souls of the dead, who leave the earth and go to heaven. In a sacred place it is forbidden to celebrate natural needs, shed blood and even swear. The clergy are sure that it was the ignorant behavior of travelers that caused earthquakes. The priests promised to indulge in long prayers, to propitiate angry souls.
It is noteworthy that the police also blamed the tourists, however five visitors were charged only with fighting off from the official group and walked independently on the mountain, taking pictures and posting the received pictures in social network.
By the way, a strong earthquake in Malaysia claimed lives nineteen people and also destroyed many roads and facilities.
