World Earthquake and Tsunami zones
In view of Japan 2011's major earthquake, I'm curious about the earthquake zones around the world. In areas where earthquakes are prone, damages to properties and economies could be substantial. We may need to keep this in view when we go about our investment decisions.

- 2010 profit margin = 26.46%. Proforma for unitholders around 18.8%
- 2010 EPS = US$0.0315. Thus PE Ratio (using US1.08) = 34.29. 2011
- Current Asset = US 937M. Current Liability = US 1447. Net current liability.
