Yes, Asia is very unstable. However, with shifting weather patterns, I'm not so sure if anyplace is safe from disaster anymore. Everyone is vulnerable, just some places more than others.

You also have to look at disasters in terms of micro-disasters. Say you live in a generally safe zone in North America that gets HAMMERED by a snow storm that knocks out power for 2 weeks. No going out, no getting anything to you. Can you make it through 2 brutally cold weeks? A power grid crash could happen anywhere really, even without snow. It's happened before. Massive earthquakes, floods, terrorist attack, storms... lots of things that can cause problems without even getting into the discussion of food, water and oil.

But the "end of the world" type of disaster that site is selling (the shelter), the only thing that comes to mind is... what if you can't get to it?

It's all great to be prepared to survive like that, but you also have to think, if there is a warning for an even so large you need to get underground (and I doubt there would), there will be CHAOS. Good luck getting to your far away shelter unless you're privileged enough to have your own helicopter or jet. Even then, there could be a no fly zone enforced and you're stuck. Some nut job lets off a suitcase nuke somewhere and watch how fast civilian planes are grounded.

IMHO, unless you live within walking distance to that giant shelter, best to take that money and build your own on your own land and hope to God you're not on vacation on the other side of the world if you ever need it.
