PRESERVED SITE TO TEACH STEPS TO SURVIVAL
Described as the "toughest" crisis since World War II by the Prime Minister of Japan, the earthquake that rattled nerves, has brought back tragic images of the 921 incident to the the Taiwan residents. Now, let's take you back to the affected area, where it's preserved for a significant purpose, to teach individuals about the steps to survival when Mother Nature strikes again.
Despite being seated, the crowd becomes breathless as this simulated earthquake strikes.
Despite being prepared, a level 6 earthquake frightens children. And outside, the buildings and reinforced concrete girders that collapsed 12 years ago, are part of the remains by the 921 earthquake in the Wufeng area which measured 6.3.
Kuang Fu Junior High had the Chelungpu fault cross through the school causing severe damage, and preserving the original appearance of the earthquake zone was meant to be quite a shocking record of the event.
Children listen carefully to an explanation of the powerful earthquake in Japan, which was 400 times stronger than 921, making them feel quite terrified.
Japan has excellent disaster prevention education and crisis management, as those who experienced 921 know the importance of such pre-disaster preparedness.
Taiwan is also located in the Pacific a "ring of fire" with a high frequency of earthquakes as this Japanese earthquake led visitors to increase to this area by between 50-60% in the past two days.
It was an opportunity for both parents and children to come together and educate themselves.
