Experts: Jakarta to sink by 2025

The story about Jakata sinking isn't new. Jakatatians along with Bangkokians have been talking about their cities sinking for sometimes. Personally I hear eldelies talking about it 4-5 years ago. And personally, I think cities like Bangkok and Jakarta on low land (Bangkok who's foundation are built on flat swamp land and marshes) will be sinking due to a combination of the general rise in sea level as ice bergs melt and by actual subsidence (Or is it now that if we are moving into mini ice age?)

Back in May 2008 there was this article about a vocano eruption in Indonesia which was actually lead to sinking, the sudden type of sinking that any "shock-the-world" authors would love to capitalised on:

The fact that subsidence is occuring is actually no surprise; it's a natural consequence of the eruption itself. Lusi was the result of the breaching of a subsurface aquifer-  a porous, water-bearing rock horizon, which was being squeezed by the weight of all the overlying rocks.

  • Yes Kim B, I think prediction of land mass are quite propable as i believe they change all the time, some rise some sink, it is changing as we speak. I tend to believe in Edgar Cayce that earth changes take place very slowly rather than sudden, because our humanly time scale is sooooo...tiny compare to universal time, albeit, the rate of change may be accelerating. Interesting how Sylvia Browne prophecies are in the time ball park as this 'expert'. 
  • Interesting Sonny.  Brings to my mind what the famous psychic Sylvia Browne has said:

     "West Coast of U.S. goes under in 2026. Parts of the East Coast also get inundated. Tsunamis will wipe out a large portion of Japan. The Hawaiian Islands will have upheaval and be the site of a large new landmass. Atlantis will begin to show itself by 2023 and be fully visible by 2026."

     

    So, will the earth changes take place slowly as Edgar Cayce (and other psychics/prophets) have predicted or will it happen suddenly like NZT says???
