Safety Management at MallsAiming for More Disaster-resistant AEON MALL We will promote community development to gain high evaluation of the safety of our malls and make our malls safe for everybody from both hard and soft aspects.The safety of our customers is the top priority in daily mall operations. We are working as a local disaster prevention base at each shopping mall by conducting drills simulating disasters such as earthquakes and typhoons with employees of the specialty stores. We are also aiming to play an im-portant role as a restoration base when a certain region is extensively dam-aged by disaster by securing as much electric power and drinking water as possible to maintain functions of the facility.AEON MALL Iwaki Onahama (Fukushi-ma Prefecture) which opened in June 2018 is prepared to temporarily accept evacuees by adopting the piloti col-umn construction on the rst oor, in-stalling major facilities in a higher place than the expected maximum height of tsunami, and opening mall's paths, rooftop, etc. to the public at any time during the day or night.Aiming for malls as a local disaster prevention baseWe have been creating shopping malls on the basis of disaster simulations, for example, based on our experiences in the Great Eastern Japan Earthquake, installing power receiving facilities, etc. in a higher place assuming damage caused by tsunami or ood, and installing an emergency valve capable of draining drinking water from the water receiving tank. We have also been enhancing aseismic performance, for example, by changing smoke-proof hanging walls from glass to transparent, nonammable sheets to prevent a secondary disaster when an earthquake occurs. Almost all our shopping malls in Japan have a system that functions as a disaster prevention base in emergencies by entering into an agreement of co-operation in disaster-prevention activities with the local administration.AEON MALL Iwaki Onahama [Fukushima Prefecture]Kaoru IwamotoVice President and Development OcerNote: His position at the interview on February 18, 2019 was Senior Managing Director and General Manager of Development Division.
