Japan is considering the possibility of creating a back-up capital city in case a major natural disaster, like the March 11 earthquake, strikes Tokyo.
日本正在考慮建立一個後備首都的可能性，以應付重大自然災害襲擊東京的情況，如3月11日的地震。
A new panel from Japan's Ministry of Land and Infrastructure will consider the possibility of moving some of Tokyo's capital functions to another big city, like Osaka.
一個來自日本國土和基礎設施部的新小組，將會考慮可能性把部分東京的首都功能移往另一個大城市，例如大阪。
Japan is located on the junction of four tectonic plates and experiences one-fifth of the world's strongest earthquakes and geologists have warned Tokyo is particularly vulnerable to powerful earthquakes.
It is feared if a massive earthquake like the March magnitude 9.0 quake struck Tokyo, it could destroy the country's political and economic base.
