Strong Earthquake Shakes Taiwan

　　Two earthquakes, registering magnitude 7.2 and 6.7 on the Richter Scale, struck off the southwest coast of Taiwan on Tuesday evening, causing damage and at least one death; however, despite early fears and precautionary warnings, no tsunami was triggered.

The epicenter of the first quake was just 15 kilometers from the coast of Taiwan. Local media reports that cracks appeared in many streets in the southern city of Pingtung and a major bridge was damaged.

The quake was felt throughout Taiwan. It swayed buildings and knocked objects off the shelves in Taipei, in the northern part of the island.

In Fujian Province on the Chinese mainland, which lies opposite Taiwan, a spokesperson from the local earthquake bureau, Yang Xiaoning, rules out the occurrence of a large earthquake in the region though it also felt a tremor.

据中心电视台报导，记者从中国电信和中国网通证明，因为昨晚中国台湾南部海疆强烈地动，中美海缆“亚太一号”、“亚太二号”海缆、亚欧海缆等多条国际海底通讯光缆产生间断，间断点在台湾以南十五千米的海疆，造成大陆的网民没法正常拜候国际网站，同时中国大陆至台湾地域、美国、欧洲等标的目的的通讯路线也遭到影响。

从本日清晨起，有来自北京、重庆、武汉等多地网通、电信誉户反应，没法正常拜候外洋网站，包含雅虎在内的多家国际知名网站均没法正常拜威塑,候，MSN等IM也没法正常登岸。中国网通和中国电信团体公关处人士，均于9:00证明，昨晚台湾地域的地动影响到内地出口光缆，造成海内拜候外洋网站妨碍。中国电信和中国网通正在踊跃接洽境外的互助运营商，采纳板橋汽車借款, 卫星备份等多种方法加紧修复，估计影响还将延续一段时候。
