Next magnitude 7.0+ earthquake, where will it hit?

[Randy]

It would be interesting to hear peoples views on where you predict the next major, catastrophic earthquake will hit.

At Staffordshire University we had this discussion, many people thought Istanbul (Turkey), San Francisco (USA) or somewhere in Indonesia.

What do you think? wheres over due for the 'big one'?

[Joss]

I think San Francisco must be a likely candidate! Although Indonesia seems to have a Natural Disaster every few months, so I would have to say them.

Apart from the obvious Asia Tsunami, the Earthquakes, Volcano eruption, Floods and Landslides seems to make Indonesia the unfortunate winner of 'Natural Disaster Hot Spot'.

This natural disaster are hard to predict. so we must be prepared all the time. thanks for the post.
