Exhibition Content:

In light of the recent global increase in natural disasters, the implementation of disaster prevention systems for disseminating emergency information to the public has become critically important. JTEC, drawing upon extensive research into local needs, has developed a comprehensive solution that integrates telecommunications and broadcasting. This initiative encompasses both systems development and localized implementation support.

A significant achievement for JTEC has been the successful development and implementation of a prototype system in Latin America, which incorporates CAP/EDXL-DE, the globally recognized standard format for disaster information dissemination, in collaboration with local broadcasters. JTEC is currently exploring opportunities to expand this system to the Asian and African regions.

These accomplishments were prominently featured in the exhibition.

JTEC remains committed to contributing to disaster prevention and mitigation efforts in countries susceptible to natural disasters.
