as earthquake-proof water tanks, portable type small power pumps, power supply vehicles anti earthquake disaster workshop wagons.
Especially in the areas for intensified earthquake preparations or facilities set up on the basis of the live-year emergency project plan for earthquake disaster management, the government is taking special measures such as increasing national subsidies in order to reduce the financial burden on the municipalities.
If effective fire-fighting operations are to be carried out when a large-scale earthquake strikes, it is necessary for the strengthening of the fire fighting facilities to continue.
