Knowledge is the Key of Survival
            
Our country which is the country is along the Pacific Ring of Fire which means that we experience strong trembling earthquakes due to our topographic origin. Because of this, our government decided to conduct a National Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED) to all levels of school that would help us know what to do when times of disaster like earthquake occur in our nation. 

          
            Many students or people are unaware of the “Big One” that might happen anytime and it is believed to be a strong and destructive earthquake that will soon hit a bit part of Luzon. Because of the so called “Big One” the Government of the Philippines conducted the National Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED) that would prepare us for the coming of this strong trembling of our vast lands.


            Raising awareness of disaster hazards through public education, encouraging vulnerable people to take preventative and mitigating actions where possible before disaster strikes. Ensure that the Knowledge from prediction and early warning systems can be accessed, understood and acted upon by local communities

            Preparedness is a must, being ready before a disaster may happen is a big help to everyone and it would serve as an asset for an individual like me to ensure, secure my safety of my life and to help other people as well when disaster may take place in my community or elsewhere.
