Secara umumnya, gempa berukuran kurang 8 pada skala richter tidak menyebabkan tsunami...secara umumnya lah. Kecuali gempa lemah menyebabkan runtuhan tanah bawah laut, spertimana berlaku di Papua New Guinea pada 1998.

tsunami also happens when plates are pushing each other.. --
(oceanic crust..) cuz it happens underneath the bottom of
ocean - ---  plus if it is closer to volcanic mountain it can
trigger volcano as well - cuz the magma will form liquid rock (which
are very hot..) when it reaches the earth surface -

hence - indonesia suffers this kind of disaster during krakatau -
when the plates are pushing underneath.. trigger tsunami as high
as 40m above sea level - and the eruption can be heard as far as
4600 km from the volcano (across indian ocean) -

sikit2.. belum la lagi... tapi kalu dah setiap minggu.. gempa ke hulu.. gempa ke hiliq... aku bajet tak lama  habis tsunami atau gempa besar macam kat sichuan tu...

Er...the actions of the plates pushing each other IS the cause of Earthquakes...hehe

As for Krakatoa, the tsunami was triggered by the violent blasts and the subsequent collapse of the volcano.

well that's what it is  -- but earthquakes under the ocean
is called tsunami - meaning big wave -=

but not only caused by plates pushing -
also by plates sliding too -

not sure about collapse of volcano means but the activities of the volcano
in krakatoa was months before the huge explosion though --

i love the discussion about it - and hope to discuss further about it with ya -
cuz i think you have some ideas and thought about this natural disaster -

Powerful Aftershock Rocks Papua, Indonesia



JAKARTA, Jan 7 (Bernama) -- A strong tremor with magnitude of 6. 1 struck quake-hit area of Papua in easternmost of Indonesia on Wednesday morning, a late aftershock of a series of tremors hit since Sunday, but no new damage or casualty has been reported yet, meteorology agency said here.

The quake struck some 241 kilometres east of Sorong town near Manokwari and the epicentre was 50 kilometres deep, Rahma, an official of the agency told China's Xinhua news agency.

"So far, there has been no serious new damage or casualty cased by the tremor," George Jaleskona, an official at the provincial meteorology agency told Xinhua over phone from the main city of Manokwari.

The Sunday's main shock of 7.6 magnitude has killed one person, injured 50 others, displaced over 14,000 people and devastated hundreds of building, scores of bridges and other infrastructure in Manokwari town.

Residence in the town fear of further aftershocks, which could collapsed damaged buildings. Most of them live in makeshift tents.

After the 6.1 tremors Wednesday morning, some moderate tremors continued to hit the province, according to the meteorology agency.

Indonesia has recently launched an early tsunami warning system across the country to prevent a repeat of the 2004 massive death caused by tsunami. The catastrophe four years ago devastated Indian Ocean community and killed more than 230,000 people, over 170,000 of them in Aceh at northern tip of Sumatra Island of Indonesia.

Indonesia, with over 230 million population and 17,000 islands, sits at a vulnerable zone so called "the Pacific Ring of Fire" where two continental plates, stretching from the Western Hemisphere through Japan and Southeast Asia, meet that cause frequent volcanic movements.
