Teluk Intan ,Perak ,Malaysia (3556.3 km WNW of epicenter) [Map] / Very weak shaking (MMI II) : As I was on the bed late evening( around 5:30 pm local time )I felt like very light earthquake. I have experience going through stronger earthquakes. So I can say i felt it and my friend near me felt it too. Is it possible?
