I didn't feel any here in Singapore, but ample warnings are already issued to India on its shoddy constructions. Please tighten construction safety regulations to save people from the imminent danger from manmade shelters jolted by natural disasters. 8.9 magnitude is really scary. My heart goes out to those got affected by this calamity.
