[Now News Channel]Japan has issued a major earthquake warning, and the government is reminding Hong Kong people traveling to Japan to be more alert. Some travel agencies pointed out that because the authorities only issued a yellow travel warning for Fukushima, Japan, and not for the entire country, it is difficult for travel agencies to arrange refunds for members of the group. The Federation of Insurance Companies said there is now an early warning that earthquakes are known to be a risk and could affect newly purchased insurance cover.
Xuan Guoquan, executive director of Dongyingyou: “Everyone comes to question us. Of course, we also tell them about this situation. It’s just an early warning. Yellow alerts are good .They all remind everyone to be careful. If the guests feel like giving up because of this, they don’t leave, you have to bear the loss yourself.”
Lau Pei-ling, Executive Director of the Federation of Hong Kong Insurance Companies: “If you go to Japan to buy suitable travel insurance after August 8, if you buy it now, you can cancel the trip or take the trip ends early, or if the trip is delayed due to a local earthquake, there is a chance that there will be no insurance. If experts determine that the same accident occurred on August 8, the insurance will not cover the risk that has already occurred. “
