<\/a><\/p>\nJ-alert System<\/p>\n
Other discussion during the FRICS visit is also on implementation after warnings were given. For example, in 2004 a warning was given to the municipal office; however the city mayor at that time was not fully educated about such warning events and proceeded to ignore the warnings to be given to the public. Hence, disaster occurs and lives were lost. One of the steps being done by the Japanese government is to educate not just the people but focused on educating the politicians. Such awareness program is conducted through the Ministry of Land Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. Improvement of the warning system is also being conducted by involving the public and getting feedbacks from the public regarding existing risk maps developed by the authorities. Such plan is the My time line program. The program includes training course for residents by the disaster management companies. Residents are given risk maps, and are practice to use and identify the routes safe for evacuation. From such programs better reaction of the people from available resources of risk maps can be obtain. Improvement of guidelines by the cabinet was also conducted such as guidelines on when to issue the warnings. A report on what have been made by FRICS and their suggestion and recommendations to other disaster management agencies was shared through their publication Modernization of hydrological services in Japan.<\/p>\n
