SM Lee terima anugerah uni Indonesia atas bantuan tsunami 2004

 Link: https://www.beritaharian.sg/singapura/sm-lee-terima-anugerah-uni-indonesia-bantuan-tsunami-2004

Summary: SM Lee received an award from a university in Aceh for the assistance rendered by Singapore to Indonesia in the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami. The article recounts the tsunami and reports on SM Lee's Facebook post acknowledging the award. In the Facebook post, Lee comments on the help that Singapore gave and the recovery that Aceh has made since the tsunami.

Lines that I was confused by:

1.

Gelombang maut yang tercetus akibat gempa bumi berukuran 9.1 magnitud itu mengorbankan sekitar 230,000 orang di lebih 12 negara, termasuk Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka dan Thailand, menjadikannya salah satu bencana alam paling dahsyat yang direkodkan dalam sejarah.

The tsunami was triggered by an earthquake of size 9.1 magnitude that sacrificed around 230K people in more than 12 countries, entering Indonesia, India, sri Lanka and Thailand, making natural disaster that is a record in history (confused specifically by the phrase "salah satu bencana alam paling dahsyat")

2. 

Dengan kerjasama rapat bersama pemerintah Indonesia, Singapura memberikan bantuan dan turut serta dalam usaha kemanusiaan antarabangsa

My translation: With close cooperation with government of Indonesia, Singapore gave help and with humanity... (after using Google Translate I understand it means "participated in international humanitarian efforts", I just need to check whether/why "turut serta" means participate)

Meja makan di pusat-pusat makanan minta diasingkan

https://eresources.nlb.gov.sg/newspapers/digitised/article/beritaharian19780204-1.2.31.4.6?qt=pusat,%20makanan&q=pusat%20makanan  Meja makan di pusat-pusat makanan minta diasingkan Asking for Eating Tables at hawker centres to be separated Saya adalah salah seorang pekerja yang sentiasa makan di pusat makanan Boat Quay di belakang bangunan Bank of China. I am a worker who often eats at the Boat Quay Food Centre behind the Bank of China building. Why salah? Saya ingin mengucapkan terimakasih kepada Kementerian Keadaan Sekitar kerana menyediakan gerai-gerai yang berasingan antara makanan-makanan Islam dan bukan Islam. I hope to say thank you to Ministry of Environment because they provide stalls that are separate between Islamic food and non-Islamic food. (halal/not halal). Keadaan ini bukan saja wujud di pusat makanan Boat Quay tetapi juga di pusat-pusat makanan yang lain. This situation not only exists in Boat Quay Food Centre but also in all other hawker centers.  Bagaima...

Ayat dengan Simpulan Bahasa Saya tidak ada duit pecah, boleh membayar menggunakan kad? Dia tidak boleh menonton filem pada tengah hari kerana dia makan upah. Kalau negara ada banyak wang panas, ekonomi negara itu akan sangat berbahaya. Saya mesti bekerja lebih keras kerana saya mesti membayar wang muka untuk rumah.
