Despite recent government warnings regarding earthquake risks, many Hongkongers proceeded with their travel plans to Japan on Tuesday. This decision comes in the wake of a powerful 7.1-magnitude earthquake that struck off the southern island of Kyushu earlier this month. The Japanese government has since issued a warning about a heightened risk of a “megaquake” in the near future.
In response to these alerts, the Hong Kong government advised residents to remain vigilant while traveling. Despite these warnings, a significant number of travelers from Hong Kong have chosen to continue with their plans. Many have taken proactive measures, such as purchasing comprehensive travel insurance and avoiding areas identified as hazardous.
The resilience of Hongkongers in the face of natural disaster warnings underscores their commitment to their travel plans while prioritizing safety and preparedness.
