It also highlighted the important role of United Nations and other international agencies to stay prepared to respond towards such incidents in the future.

The movement of tourists towards Asian tourism destinations was also affected. The local economy faced most challenging times as damaged infrastructure as well as low influx of tourists in coming years. It has most impacted the local businesses and human resources linked with the business.

" "Electric Chair" is squarely of the present, in harsh, artificial pinks and yellows. It is pure pop art, without sympathy for the victim or for any ideology that condemns capital punishment.
