[Earthquake Escape Guide] Keep in mind that ten earthquakes must escape!

1. For the personal safety of yourself and your family, please hide under a solid furniture such as a desk

The big shaking time is about 1 minute. This is the first thing you should take into consideration for personal safety of yourself and your family. First of all, evade under a table with a low center of gravity and strong solids, and firmly grip the table leg. In places where there is no table to hide, in any case, cushions and other objects should be used to protect the head.

2. Immediately turn off the fire when shaking, immediately fire when fire

In the event of a major earthquake, fire engines cannot be relied upon to extinguish fires. Therefore, each of our efforts to turn off the fire and extinguish the fire is an important factor that can minimize the magnitude of the earthquake disaster.

3. Do not panic to run outdoors

After the earthquake, it ran out of panic and shattered glass, bricks on the roof, billboards, etc., and fell on the body. It was dangerous. In addition, precast concrete walls, vending machines, etc. are also in danger of collapsing and should not be near these objects.

4. Open the door and ensure the exit

In the case of houses with reinforced concrete structures, due to the shaking of the earthquake, doors and windows would be misaligned and doors could not be opened. There have been instances where people were confined to the house. Please open the door to ensure the exit. In the meantime, we must first think about how to escape in the event of being locked in the house. Prepare ladders, ropes, etc.

5. To protect the head and avoid danger when outdoors

When the earth shakes violently and stands unstable, people will have the mentality of supporting and grasping. Most of the posts and walls around them will become objects of support. However, these seemingly solid and solid things are actually dangerous.

6. Follow the staff's instructions in department stores and theaters

In places where there are many people such as department stores and underground streets, the most frightening thing is the chaos. Please follow the instructions of the store staff and guards.

7. Cars on the roadside parking, prohibited areas in the control area

In the event of a major earthquake, the car would be as flat as a tire, unable to grasp the steering wheel and making it difficult to drive. Must pay full attention to avoiding the intersection and stopping the car by the side of the road. In order not to hinder the evacuation of evacuees and the passage of emergency vehicles, the middle part of the road should be relinquished.

8. Be sure to pay attention to landslides, falling cliffs, or tsunami

There is a risk of landslides and rockfalls on steep slopes in steep slopes, and you should evacuate quickly to safe places.

On the coast, there is a danger of a tsunami. When you sense an earthquake or send out a tsunami warning, pay attention to information such as radios and televisions, and quickly evacuate to a safe place.

9. When hiking in refuge, carrying items should be at least

Whenever there is a fire caused by an earthquake, spreading, burning, crisis life, or personal safety, take evacuation measures. As a method of evacuation, as a matter of principle, citizens, disaster prevention organizations, streets, etc. shall be used as a unit. Under the leadership of the person in charge, the police, etc., they should take refuge on foot, and the items they carry should be at a minimum. You must never use your car or bicycle to take refuge.

For patients and other evacuees, local residents’ cooperation and mutual assistance are indispensable. From normal times, it is necessary to negotiate between the neighbors on the way to evacuation beforehand.

10. Don't listen to rumors, don't act rashly

In the event of a major earthquake, people are easily shaken psychologically. To prevent confusion, it is extremely important for everyone to calmly act on the basis of the correct information.

Get the right information from the radio that you carry. I believe information obtained directly from disaster prevention agencies such as the government, police, and firefighting will never believe in irresponsible gossip, and do not act rashly.
