Turkey should focus on quake risk management: Professor
Turkey has done a lot since a major earthquake in 1999 in terms of disaster management, but the focus must be on taking measures before earthquakes strike, according to a prominent geologist.
"In the current mentality we seem to say: 'Let the earthquake happen, we will quickly heal the wounds.' This is an outdated approach," Professor Naci Görür has told the Hürriyet Daily News.
