Tragedy struck Japan but it had enough preparation and disaster management to reduce what could have been a huge death toll, all other countries need to do the same sort of preparation and disaster management to reduce the effect of such future disasters, which in this changing world can be in any form and may hit anywhere in the world.

Japan is known to practice drills each year for such situations which are becoming common not only in Japan but all over the world.
I am sure all countries will soon have their disaster management plans in place.

The buildings in Japan are constructed by studying the ancient temples of Japan that do not crumble and fall down even in strong earthquakes, hence they are safe during an earthquake.
The reason for the severity of the 2011 Japan earthquake is due to the fact that the quake had its epicenter in the shallow region of just 24 kilometers below the sea bed offshore of Sendai.

We could see the unbelievable scenes of Office buildings shaking and the people inside ducking for cover, some moving scenes they are.
