We in the Japanese archipelago cannot be immune from the fate of huge earthquakes occurring in long-term cycles. The biggest earthquakes, such as the Tokyo Metropolitan Earthquake and the Nankai Trough Earthquake, will come one day. If so, what should we do now? When the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred in 2011, the author, as the General Counsellor of the Cabinet Office (Minister of State for Disaster Management), took charge of the response at the front line of the Emergency Disaster Response Headquarters.
