Tsunami Early Warning Tower Archives — LIRNEasia


We assume that the failure of the Hikkaduwa tower will be examined as part of the comprehensive review the Minister has called for.

The conclusions are that one must minimize the number of links and ensure that each is link is robust. It appears from the story that a link in the Galle district failed.
