Have a Happy New Year Everyone!
I am saddened by the Tsunami and the lives lost and to a micro-extent am saddened by the prospect of species being wiped out in places like Sumatra. Hopefully, all of those native orchids have been imported elsewhere so they can thrive. And, once again my prayers to the people of these places. .. . .

And to go a bit further, one might speculate if such spread could
promote speciation, and the generation of new orchid taxa....well, not within your lifetime anyway, but still.........

Well, it certainly supports biodiversity but not speciation per se. Briefly, there are "weed" species that tend to outcompete all other species and over time will dominate an ecosytem. Periodic disturbances level the playing, so to speak, and allow all species to regain a foothold.
