Take the earthquake drills seriously
One must have the essentials; first aid kit, spare clothes, water, radio, extra batteries, flashlight, any necessary medication, a whistle and non-perishable food that can last for at least 3 days good for his/her family. These things would definitely play a big role; especially if one was greatly affected by the earthquake.
Be sure to have an emergency kit

keep track of news
Knowing what is happening around oneself could mean the difference between life and death especially before or after an earthquake. Government associations such as the PHIVOLCS will post updates about the possibility of an earthquake through any form of media network such as the television or the radio to prevent a massacre. One can keep track of these updates from websites such as emsc-csem.org , quakes.globalincidentmap.com and phivolcs.dost.gov.ph
envision and plan emergency exits
In case of an earthquake it is good to know possible exits for an easier evacuation to prevent deaths. Thus it is necessary and urgent to plan, envision and implement possible exits to ensure a faster and safer evacuation.
* Please note that earthquakes are not predictable. We can only prevent the impending danger that occurs after the earthquake itself.
