Answer: Protect yourself from the earthquake or volcanic eruption when it occurs because when this happens it is very likely that a tsunami will follow. Escape from the epicenter of the disaster, get as far away as possible from the water and get to a place as high as possible.

Explanation:

Indonesia is an archipelago of almost 20 thousand islands and it is located on the Pacific "Ring of Fire" which is a region where many volcanic eruptions and earthquakes occur independently of other events in other parts of the Ring. This means, <u>Indonesia is vulnerable to volcano eruptions and earthquakes that eventually will cause tsunamis.</u>

A tsunami is a complex event involving a group of waves in water of high energy and variable size that occurs when a large body of water is vertically displaced by some extraordinary phenomenon, for example, an earthquake, volcanic eruption, landslides, underwater detonations, meteorite impact, glacial ice slides, and others. So it is generated by the displacement of water.

The rist index for a tsunami to occur there is 9.7 of 10, this means that such an event is highly likely to occur. Since it is a natural phenomenon, there is no way to prevent it, however, there are several actions to take into account to avoid suffering major damage when this happens. <u>This basically consists of protecting yourself from the earthquake or volcanic eruption when it occurs because when this happens it is very likely that a tsunami will follow</u>. So you have to take it as a warning sign to flee in time. The most important thing is to escape from the epicenter of the disaster, logically get as far away as possible from the water and get to a place as high as possible, such as a mountain. It is necessary to be aware of the news and warnings to monitor the situation.
