National mourning for the Qinghai earthquake
April 23, 2010
China marked a day of national mourning for the victims of last week’s earthquake in Yushu, as the death from the disaster rose to above 2,000.
Flags flew at half across China and at its overseas embassies, marking one week since the disaster struck. All public entertainment, including live sports and entertainment programmes on national television and internet games were be suspended for 24 hours.
Three minutes of silence was observed in Qinghai province, where the 7.1 magnitude earthquake occurred.
Have you been to Yushu before? Do you know any related stories about this earthquake?
Becoming Chinglish 
I would say~
Much distress regenerates a nation.
Same culture background, same experience can always strike a chord.
RIP, my deeply condolence. As a popular saying in China goes: you all will find your place in heaven.
