About Kepulauan Talaud –
Talaud Islands, island group of northern Indonesia, situated about 225 miles (360 km) northeast of Celebes (Sulawesi).
The Talaud Islands form an archipelago situated to the north-east of the Minahasa Peninsula.
Along with the Sangihe Islands to the west and south, the Talaud Islands are administered from Manado, the capital of North Sulawesi provinsi (province).
The region is regularly rocked by large earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, as the Molucca Sea Plate is being consumed in both directions.
