Ado yang alah dapek kaba ttg kondisi Hotel Bumi Minang yang juo akan dipakai utk SSM2007...? Td pagi jam 6.50 itu, 2 orang fotografer dari National Graphic, termasuk si James iko, panik sekali harus menyelamatkan diri dari kamarnya di Lantai.4 turun kebawah diantara puing-puing atap Bumi Minang yang beterbangan katanya. Dari sms terselip kata-kata: "Mengerikan...!". Kalau tadi malam dari Pangkalan mereka sms menanyakan status gempa dan kemungkinan utk extend di Sumbar utk meliput gempa, ternyata atas permintaan James, jam 11 siang ini mereka sudah sampai di Jakarta. Sekaliber dia aja buru-buru kabur ke Jkt, bisa dimaklumi kekhawatiran dunsanak kito di Sumbar saat iko. Semoga korban tidak bertambah. Amin.
