Well it becomes a common affair to have earthquake in Indonesia.
The only thing the government must do is to educate the people on the action to take when there is earthquake. example hide under the table.
Also the government must build house that can withstand earth movement.
This will surely reduce the fatalities if there is earthquake just like Japan.
