The minister highlighted the insufficient participation of residents in past risk-reduction exercises, with only 1,500 people participating in one drill last year. He attributes this to past government inaction and a culture of minimizing risk, resulting in dense urbanization incompatible with the area's dangers. This underscores a systemic failure in risk communication and urban planning.
