Disaster prevention information

In the event of a large-scale earthquake such as the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred in March 2011, or a storm or flood caused by a typhoon or heavy rain, what should I do to minimize the damage?

It is necessary for the ward office, disaster prevention-related organizations, local residents' organizations such as the Neighborhood Association, and residents of the ward to consider measures in advance, determine the roles to be fulfilled, and conduct training.

Always have the consciousness that "I will protect everyone's area to protect myself", and each of the inhabitants of the ward will prepare for disasters, such as stockpiling necessary items and equipment during disasters on a daily basis. Please.
