Many tribal people fled deep into the jungles after the tsunami and have been too scared to emerge since, authorities said, adding that they were believed to be surviving on coconuts, bananas and wild berries.

They will probably do better than the civilized types. They are used to living on what they can find. That's why they are called "hunter gatherers."

So sad, kumar. You are in a better position to gauge than I. Since they are stone age people, it would make no sense to move them too far away .... Surely there have been disasters in the area before. Krakatoa (sp?) ....what happened to these people when that volcano exploded and caused the tsunamis?
