This drill, which will take place in a national level, will consist of 4 stages and warnings will be given to the public via tsunami warning towers, telephone, internet, SMS and the mass media.

The population that resides in the seaside will be taken to a safe location immediately following the warning, and they will be taken back to their homes after the crisis is over.

The Disaster Management Centre assures the populous that this is merely a drill, and that there is no need to worry.(LPN)
