Despite the ability of the Japanese to overcome when it comes to rebuilding the country after major disasters, the Tokyo metropolitan government wants to have its emergency services and its citizens prepared for any possible incident.
For this reason, it is carrying out fictitious rescues in collapsed areas and rehearsing evacuation protocols in the event of any major catastrophe that the country could suffer. In fact, it is believed that Japan has a 70% chance of experiencing a large earthquake in the next thirty years.
In Tokyo there are simulation centers to prepare citizens for an earthquake and practice how to act at the time of the tremor. In the capital, the new skyscrapers are prepared for powerful earthquakes and have the capacity to accommodate refugees in the event of one.
