In Hong Kong and China, all flags are flown at half mast.
"Flags flown at half mast" means that the flags to not go all the way up at the top of the pole. It stays halfway at the pole, this is for the people who died in the earthquake.
Also, people observe a minute of silence. That means they close their eyes for a moment for the people who died. During this moment, everywhere is very quiet to respect the dead.
