By Alisha Alix|January 8, 2024|1 Comment
The Pokémon Company recently made a generous donation, of 50 million JPY (approximately MYR1,610,380.68) to aid those affected by the recent Noto Peninsula Earthquake. On 1 January 2024, a powerful tremor struck approximately 4.3 miles north-northwest of the Japanese city of Suzu, situated in the Noto Peninsula of Ishikawa Prefecture.
The earthquake’s seismic activity and a subsequent tsunami resulted in extensive damage across the Noto Peninsula, devastating many neighbourhoods and killing at least 92 people. This earthquake has been labelled the deadliest incident in Japan since the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes.
As of Friday, Japan’s Self-Defense Forces has increased the number of troops participating in rescue efforts to 4,600, according to Kyodo news agency. The Pokémon Company has expressed its support in helping those affected by the disaster in a recent post made on Twitter/X;
