RECOMMENDATIONS - Prelim RECOMMENDATIONS - Prelim ReportReport Future exercises desired
Allow time for strategic / critical decision-making Run Exercise in real time Countries develop / conduct tsunami exercises to
regularly exercise national arrangementsConduct prior to Intl exercises to best benefit
Ensure 7X24 Tsunami Warning Focal Points regularly reviewed / updates circulated
Consider inclusion of addl information in bulletins Simple English word-picture of tsunami threat
Networking between agencies / media must continue to enhance awareness
