PTH Provide Timely Help for the People of Ecuador After Earthquake

The grade 7.8 earthquake happened in Ecuador on 16th April led to 600 deaths and over 8340 injured. Ecuador is located in the Pacific seismic belt, where volcanoes and earthquake happen a lot. The residential building with poor seismic performance is the main reason of such a huge loss this time. The earthquake happened in a relatively low level of economic development area and local people built houses regards to the cost. As a result, most of the local buildings are brick structure, rather than the main concrete frame structure.
