48. Conclusion
Experts say that 72 thousand buildings will be distorted if earthquake
occurs with rector scale 6.6 or 7 in Dhaka. 70 thousand people will die if it
happens at night. 800 educational institutes will be collapsed.
Earthquake can’t predict and can’t prevent. By managing we can
minimize our loses. Pre-earthquake phase, preparedness, mitigation and
prevention are concepts to work on. Post-disaster, immediate rescue and
relief measures including temporary sheltering soon after an earthquake
until about 3 months later and re-construction and re-habilitation
measures for a period of about six months to three years need to follow.
To summarize, the most effective measures of risk reduction are predisaster mitigation, preparedness and preventive measures to reduce
vulnerability and expeditious, effective rescue and relief actions
immediately after the occurrence of the earthquake.
It is not the earthquake rather it is the building that kills people.
