Push for multilingual data post-Hanshin quake is but to stay

Push for multilingual data post-Hanshin quake is but to stay


Non-Japanese audio system have been excluded from entry to catastrophe data after the Great Hanshin Earthquake struck 30 years in the past, and Japanese and international residents are nonetheless filling within the cracks.

When the 7.3 magnitude quake struck Kobe at 5:46 a.m. on Jan. 17, 1995 — killing greater than 6,400 individuals, together with 174 foreigners — survivor Roxana Oshiro, a second-generation Peruvian of Japanese descent, didn’t perceive Japanese.

A Japanese man guided Oshiro and her husband to the closest evacuation heart — a junior highschool. However, Oshiro refused to enter, unaware that it was earthquake-resistant.
