However, other reports by health ministers have estimated the death total to be as high as 220,000 in Indonesia alone ; Effect on Malaysia: :Despite its proximity to the incident, Malaysia escaped the kind of damage that struck countries thousands of miles further away (most of its western coast is shielded by Sumatra).
