こんにちはマサ先生！ I hope you are in good health, as your family and friends, after the earthquake and tsunami that the planet presented Japan with at the beginning of 2024. I've been following the news and it seems that there haven't been many victims (so far, only 1 fatality). Despite the enormous risks and natural disasters that plague Japan, if any country is prepared for this type of disaster, it's Japan. There is a great deal of investment in prevention through civic education, the alerts and rescue systems seem well planned, as well as having infrastructures built to withstand earthquakes. The Japanese community spirit also helps in rebuilding and helping the victims. A big hug of solidarity and I hope to see you soon!
@@MasaSensei I thought Masa Sensei might be fine, because you could have been in Aomori spending New Year's Eve. But as I don't know where you live for the rest of the year, whether in Tokyo or elsewhere, and as you could also be spending New Year's Eve in one of the affected regions, I had my doubts. Although I don't know Masa Sensei personally, following your videos gives a feeling of familiarity and closeness. [I hope that at least one of the following sentences is correct.
