An Indonesian woman sells bananas and eggs at Lubuk Laweh village in the Sumatran district of Pariaman on October 6, 2009 nearly a week after the area around Padang was hit with a 7.6 magnitude earthquake. Indonesia called off the search for survivors in the quake-hit city of Padang on October 5 as officials sought to contain the risk of disease caused by thousands of trapped bodies.
