EXPATICA: Thousands of people in the Netherlands believe in an impending apocalypse in 2012 and are buying survival rations and boats.
THE NETHERLANDS - Some people believe that a major worldwide catastrophe will destroy civilisation in 2012. This weekend’s de Volkskrant wrote about the thousands of people in the Netherlands who believe in an impending apocalypse in 2012. The number of believers is many times larger in the United States and Poland. Many are buying survival rations and even boats - which will come in handy during flooding - or are preparing bunkers in foreign countries. De Volkskrant writes that while those who believe in the coming disaster have different theories as to what will happen, most are based on the Mayan calendar, which ends in 2012.
