Overall summaryIt took 2 days for sufficient aid to get there as the communications were all down, and it took two years for the port to be back in action which meant $40 billion was lost. at the time of the disaster it was the most costly one known to man. new laws have been passed to make the buildings safer and on the 1st of September they have a day for training for earthquakes. By January 1999 134,000 earthquake proof homes had been built and more instruments were installed in the area to predict future disasters. |
