Tsu starts System information for disaster prevention

津市防災情報メール多言語版の配 信が始まりました

The Tsu City Disasters Prevention Informative Email Service will now send alerts in multiple languages.

In order to provide quick and accurate information in the event of a landslide, floods caused by heavy rain, an earthquake, a tsunami, etc., the City of Tsu has implemented an email alert system that sends emergency information to registered mobile phones. The information contained in these alerts will contain the same information that is broadcast over the wireless public announcement system during large scale emergencies.

Until recently, alerts sent via the Tsu City Disasters Prevention Informative Email Service were sent only in Japanese. However, residents can now choose to have alerts sent to them in English, Portuguese, Spanish, Tagalog, or easy-to-understand Japanese.

The registration process will differ slightly according to your preferred language. For more details on how to register, please see the PDF document (733KB).
