3月11日下午2点46分,日本本州岛东北以东近海发生里氏9级大地震,东京有强烈震感。随后地震引发了海啸和核泄漏,重创日本东北部地区基础设施及汽车、半导体、钢铁、电力等行业,同时波及全球经济及金融市场,引起世界广泛关注。全球保险业可能因此面临超过百亿美元的损失。 At 2:46 p.m. on March 11, a magnitude 9 earthquake struck the coast of northeastern northeastern Japan on Honshu Island in Japan. There was a strong sense of earthquake in Tokyo. Subsequently, the earthquake triggered a tsunami and a nuclear leak, infringing infrastructure in the northeastern region of Japan, and industries such as automobiles, semiconductors, steel, power and the global economic and financial markets, arousing widespread concern in the world. The global insurance industry may therefore face more than 10 billion U.S. dollars in losses.
