“M’sia Is Not Completely Free From Earthquakes” – Segamat District Office Shares 3 Widely Believed Myths The Segamat District Office has taken to Facebook to remind the public that Malaysia is not completely free from earthquake risks, debunking several common misconceptions about seismic activity. In its Facebook post, the office cited information from the Malaysian Meteorological Department, addressed three widespread myths that continue to circulate. “Malaysia is not completely free from earthquake” The first is the belief that Malaysia is entirely safe from earthquakes, which it clarified as untrue. On June 5, 2015, a 6.0-magnitude earthquake struck Ranau, Sabah, killing 18 people and leaving a lasting reminder that the country is not immune to seismic events. The post also explained that while Malaysia does not sit directly on the Pacific Ring of Fire, certain regions remain vulnerable to aftershocks from regional earthquakes.
