Before the earthquake
One of the most important ways to prepare for the tremor is by making your home as safe as possible. If your house is old, identify the potential weaknesses. The things inside your house are as important as the walls of the house. Take a tour of your house and look for stuff that can fall or break when the ground starts shaking. You can do a little reorganization by moving large and heavy objects to the lower shelves. You can bolt the bookcases to the wall and install latches on the cupboards.

What to do when it starts shaking
When you feel the tremors, protect yourself as quickly as possible. The National Disaster Management Division (NDMD) of Ministry of Home Affairs shares these three actions: drop, cover and hold, which are also called the triangle of life.
Drop: Get down on all fours (knees and hands) to protect yourself from being knocked over. This is an ideal position to crawl for shelter.
