RE: This Is Japan

in #japan6 years ago

This "Anytime. Anywhere." earthquake preparedness looks very interesting, especially when cooking is involved :), and it's so well-thought. It reminds me of my living in Chile, another country very prone to earthquakes. I didn't experience any training there about earthquakes though. Once when I was working in the office, there's a small quake happening and everything's shaking a bit. All the foreigners were screaming, but the Chileans were very clam, hehe.

Earthquakes are very strange. If you aren’t used to them, they are really scary. Once you become accustomed to them, though, most of them don't bother you at all.

Occasionally, though, you get a big one, and you know the difference immediately. Those are scary. But people here tend to know how to respond. The early warning system that they have here really helps with that.

True! And I guess people in Japan and Chile also have tons of experiences in building earthquake resistant architecture. :)

They definitely do. That helps a lot.
