China not only had a terrible earthquake, but also an up coming disastrous flood. The New York Times has provided a news article about the possible flood in China, Shanghai. The earthquake occurred in May 12th, 2007, Sitchuan. It was shacking so hard that even parts of Taiwan was a little bit effected. It caused about 67,000 death in main land China, and about 20,000 are still missing. Beside, if you look at the bigger picture, that is not it. There is still a possibility of having a horrible flood coming up. Since the earth quake had caused some damaged to the dam, which is in Tangjiashan, and it had been raining during the beginning of May. It raised up the water level while the dam is already in danger. So now the Chinese also need to dig sluiceways to slowly transfer the water out of the dam.
