Have you ever thought about what you would do if you were in an emergency overseas? The most important thing you need to know is the emergency phone number. In some countries there are different phone numbers for police, fire and medical. In Australia the number is simply 000 and in most of Europe it is 112. In Canada the number is 911, which is the same as the American emergency phone number. Most countries do not use the same number three times because many people believe it is easy to make a mistake. Even though the emergency phone number for police in Japan is 110 and the number for medical or fire is 119, just remember that in other countries the emergency phone number is probably different. But I hope you don’t need it – travel safely! (by Prof. Wendy Tada)
