Good Country for Earthquake

Normalcy comes back. A girl brushes teeth in the open air, to a stainless steel sink part of a long row, in front of a tent city. A motherly woman misses cooking, saying the mess-hall foods lack home flavors. An elderly worries about her youngling missing education. An official nearby told her the planned k-12 boarding school that houses a few thousand kids in about 2 weeks.

The manufacturing prowess shows. Centralized macro-planning skills shine. Villagers willingly follow a 4-step plan: tent, temporary pre-fab house, 2nd one near home, and the final rebuilt village.

Could any country have done better?
