- Edward, have you heard about your uncle Sam's situation today? He's recovering in the hospital right now. The hotel in the right side where he's currently staying suddenly collapsed.
- An earthquake happened to their area all of a sudden, mom? How is he?
- The house he was staying was hit by some objects in the collapsed hotel. Thank God he is safe. He didn't get too many bruises or wounds.
- Oh no! Why is a series of earthquakes happened there?
- Is there anything we could do or to prepare to minimize the damage, mom?
- Wait, was it 2 days ago where there was a report of an earthquake in that region?
- Yes, my son. By understanding the risk, we can take important steps to reduce the chances of suffering, injury or damage. For now let's go to the living room
- Yes, Eddy. 2 days after that incident, a new earthquake occurred again there today.
- I don't know yet, Eddy. We should watch the news right now for the latest update.
- Breaking News! A 6.5 magnitude earthquake happened in Kidapawan City, occurred at 9:11 in the morning. It comes after a separate magnitude 6.6 quake in Mindanao. It was the third to shake the Mindanao region in October. There were no yet found threats of tsunami but PHIVOLCS are expecting damage and further aftershocks. Here's Eugene Garcia for the depth news about methods of reducing earthquake risks.
- Yes, thank you, Aeshin. As we've noticed our world today, we frequently experienced many different catastrophes. Natural disasters and hazards are a part of life regardless of where we live or work. That's why the most commonly used methods of reducing earthquake risks are effective recording and interpretation of ground motion, constructing seismic hazard maps and developing resistant structures.
- Let's further listen to the news, Eddy. Maybe you'll find the answer.
- Oh! That's why but why is it important to know about the methods of reducing earthquake risks, mom?
- BREAKING NEWS!
- You may be aware of these hazards and risks, but you may not understand what your risk factor implies or what you can do with that knowledge. Recognizing your risk will help you take crucial actions to reduce your risks of being injured, getting your property destroyed, or having money troubles after an earthquake.
- You know what mom, one realization that I get from the news it is that knowledge is power. By having awareness about hazards and risk reduction, we could save ourselves and thousand more lives.
- You're correct Eddy. That's why we should always sense our environment, so that we could be ready any moment, because some disasters don't give any warnings. Now let's pray your uncle and go to bed
- I will, mom. Our teacher just recently taught us about disaster today and I can't believe I have some background knowledge now. We really need to be well-educated about this because it's a matter of life. Goodnight mom, thank you for today.
- Let's go to sleep now, Eddy. You still have school tomorrow. Don't forget to pray all the victims of earthquakes today, okay?
