What items should you prepare in case an earthquake?

What is an earthquake? What is a Tsunami?

We have created a disaster manual for emergencies.

The Disaster manual can be printed so it fits nicely your passport to carry with you. It is also available at the International Association, Internaitonal Affairs Divisions at each municipality, and at the branch office of the Immigration Department.
