Evacuation System

“ If the Government of Japan deems that it is urgently necessary to protect the lives, bodies, and property of the people from armed attacks, the Government will issue warnings and promptly notify prefectural governors. And when it is necessary to evacuate residents, the Government will instruct prefectural governors to take evacuation measures.” “ I see. Then, prefectural governors notify us of warnings and give evacuation instructions through broadcasting and disaster administration radio.” “ That’s right.”
