Several months later, researchers from the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) visited the tsunami-hit area in northern Japan.
During their visit, the researchers interviewed Filipinos survivors who shared what they had went through.
“From these survivor accounts, four stories were selected and featured in a manga-style comic,” Phivolcs said Thursday.
“The comics were developed and published in collaboration with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA),” it added.
The comics—Daang Mapanganib, Ang Huling Sayonara, Oras ng Peligro, and Bagong Pag-asa—are available in English and Filipino languages.
These comics are accessible online and can be downloaded through the website of Phivolcs.
