[Provisional Translation]
 
 
On September 1, 2020 (Disaster Preparedness Day), the Prime Minister took part in the FY2020 Comprehensive Disaster Management Drills together with all Cabinet members.

This year, the drills were conducted based on a scenario in which an earthquake occurred at around 7:10 a.m., with a magnitude of 9.1 and its epicenter in the coast south of Wakayama Prefecture.

As part of the drills, the Prime Minister walked to the assembling point at the Prime Minister’s Office and held the first meeting of the Extreme Disaster Management Headquarters and an emergency Cabinet meeting. Afterwards, the Prime Minister held a press conference to explain the overview of the earthquake and the status of the Government’s response, and to give a message to the people.
