Whats with NewZealand

It is understood that as the time will pass the frequency of earthquake's occurrence would increasing. But whats wrong with the beautiful country of New Zealand? 
New Zealand had faced a number of Earthquakes this year. Especially its one of the biggest cities like Christ church.


A series of strong quakes, including a 6.0-magnitude tremor, rocked New Zealand's stricken Christchurch Monday, causing one building to collapse and prompting evacuations.

Power company Orion said electricity had been cut to 54,000 homes. The US Geological Survey measured the latest quake at a depth of nine kilometres (5.6 miles) and some 14 kilometres from the country's second largest city.

It is a common perception that Japan would be the one country that would be wiped off of the face of the world due to Earthquakes, but to me it looks like New Zealand thats gonna vanish (I wish that never happens). Scientist should now start investigating the reasons for these medium to strong range of earthquakes. Four Months ago NZ faced huge tremors and 181 people were killed. Then another earthquake within 4 months (with some small to medium scale tremors in between before this one) is quite alarming.

All you people in NZ. Peace! and be Safe!
