ReplyDeleteI am OK for now.
Thank you very much for your emails and concern. The earthquakes were so big that we had to evacuate . I have tried to go home by taxi, but it seemed impossible. Therefore I came back to the office and stayed here all night without sleeping..... I am fine. Here we have electricity, water, blanket, foods, and so on. Unfortunately my cellphone battery has gone, so I cannot contact by phone.
