11月5日は、国連の「世界津波の日」です
November 5th is the United Nations’ World Tsunami Awareness Day.
In Kochi City, we conducted training under the assumption that an earthquake occurred in an area called the Nankai Trough in the ocean.
When the store staff received information about the earthquake, they crawled under their desks to protect themselves.
After that, I went to the library, which is a tsunami evacuation site, and took the stairs up to the third floor.
In Hirokawa Town, Wakayama Prefecture, there was an evacuation drill for people on a train.
When the earthquake announcement was broadcast, about 250 people got off to the railroad tracks about 1 meter below and ran about 500 meters to the shrine located high up.
小学5年生の女の子は「電車から飛び降りるのは少し怖かったけど、地震のときはやらなければならないので、勉強になりました」と話していました
A fifth-grade elementary school girl said, ``It was a little scary to jump off the train, but you have to do it in the event of an earthquake, so I learned a lot.’’
