The last nationwide simultaneous earthquake drill for the year is set to be performed tomorrow, Nov. 14. It will be the 4th Quarter Nationwide Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED) and is again set to test the country’s preparedness during an earthquake.
The drill will be spearheaded by The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology or Philvolcs. Everyone are encouraged to join and assess their preparedness and fine tune their coordination with the family and the community in securing property, and identifying their assigned evacuation areas.

With the recent spate of earthquakes that shook the Mindanao area this is truly timely and necessary. National and local Government offices and public schools are expected to participate though some may be on semester break.
