Call this, the Johnny-come-Lately ALERT system founded and operated by the DDP here, totally, USELESS, is what this SHIT is! Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…
Because of the geography of Taiwan, on the borders of the Eurasian Plate and the Philippines Sea Plate, and the active fault is all over the island, causing all areas of Taiwan, to be at risk of the threats from earthquakes. To offer the immediate rescues to the regions, the Central Meteorology System had pushed forth the earthquake alert systems, when the quakes reached to a certain degree, then there would be the alert signals sounding off, and yet, since the system started, it'd, gotten criticized by the people. Those who'd not received the alerts before the disasters, cried about how they were, border lined by the country, and those who had received the alerts, complained of how the alerts were too loud, when the quakes weren't, even, severe, enough, and, at these moments of life and death in the earthquakes, we the people want to know, WHAT, is this, national alert system good, for?
The quakes in Hualien was the most massive in scale since the September 21st quake, in twenty-five years, and, a lot of people were faced with the moments of life and death, but, this quake caused the problems of loss of functioning in report of the alert systems, and, getting down to the malfunctioning of the alert systems, turned out, that the eastern earthquake detections systems isn't as spread out evenly as the western side, causing there to be the deviations of the, readings.
It'd been eight years since the national alert systems had been, implemented, and the quakes are happening, frequently in the Hualien, Taidong regions a lot, the experts had, warned of the activities in the eastern side of the island, the activities of the plates, and, clearly, the Department of Meteorology, was still, underprepared for them.
What was ironic was, at the start of the year, when China launched a satellite, the D.o.D. issued an aerial national grade alert, all the cell phones in the country started, sounding, off, and some of the public received the alerts as many as, three, times, and the D.o.D. had, "misspelled" satellite as, missile on its English contents, causing widespread, panic. Compared to this major earthquake, a lot of those who'd not received the national alerts, missed how the mistaken alert of DDP's misidentifying the satellite as missile, at least, that was, NOT forgotten by the country.
and here's the "system" that we the people in Taiwan, RELY, on...in ACTION time! Off of YouTube
The predictions of the quakes, is a race with the plate tectonics movements, a guarantee for the lives, and the safety of the people, there's the Forward-Looking Infrastructure Development Program had a "Urban Area Precision Estimation Plan of Major Earthquakes", with the ultimate goals of shortening the time it takes to estimate when an earthquake will, occur, with the island's, entering into the active cycles of earthquake periods, the Department of Meteorology needed to, tighten up its schedules of development, in shortening the alert times, also, up the precision of the predictions too.
This is, wishful thinking, I mean, we did NOT even get the alerts of yesterday's earthquake, and it wasn't until we feel the ground shaking, did we realize "we need to DUCK!", that is how "precise" the DDP developed systems of alerts is. And, we might fare better, IF we keep an eye on the, ants, the roaches, the rats, running scattered, to let us know, a MAJOR scale DISASTER is about to, occur, I mean, that would be, a hell of lot more, accurate!
