Radiation leak at fukushima sms true? NOT!

Have you been receiving the sms on radiation leak at fukushima?
I did..twice!
My dad end up wasting his money forwarding the sms to all his contacts..til his phone battery went dead.

I just wonder..don't people do research first before forwarding things?
No wonder telco companies make so much money!

The sms says to put betadine to the neck..hallo!! since when betadine can protect from radiation?

Do some research la..
Bloggedphilipines.com have posted some articles on this too..
some points noted:
- only those within 12km radius of the nuclear plants are susceptible to the leak
- nuclear reactors nowadays are more sophisticatedly designed
- World Meteorological Organisation in Melbourne stated that the plume from the incident site will not pass Philiphines as at 14 March..therefore if it won't pass philipines, it wouldn't reach Malaysia.

Lesson learnt..save your money. no need to waste on forwarding sms..if its important enough, government will make urgent announcement via local council, TV, radio.
at the moment..enjoy life!
