While the earthquake in Aceh in December 2004 a very powerful and cause a big tsunami of this century, became increasingly active cause of plate fracture. Moreover, the earthquake was followed on March 28, 2005 magnitude 8.6 Simeulue Island SR cause a tsunami as high as 3 meters.

"It also encourages the fault is more urgency. Because at the bottom of Siberut Island near Sumatra earthquake measuring 8.7 has occurred on the Richter Scale in 1797," he added.

This earthquake also caused fracture plates shifted as far as 10 meters and cause a tsunami. This disaster could drown the Padang and the surrounding area at that time.

Padang earthquake last night added to pressure on oceanic plates are constantly accumulating. A number of the earthquake that appeared up to now have not spent the pressing pressure of the Mentawai islands.
