The NTT - Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) has mapped the tsunami safe zone at the main location for holding the 42nd ASEAN Summit in Labuan Bajo, West Manggarai, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT).
"In Meruorah on the second floor, it is safe to evacuate, while in Khacaya the position is already high, the third floor is safe to evacuate," said BMKG Earthquake and Tsunami Mitigation Coordinator, Suci Dewi Anugrah at Komodo Labuan Bajo Meteorological Station, West Manggarai, NTT, Monday, May 8, confiscated by Antara.
The 42nd ASEAN Summit will take place in two main locations, namely the Meruorah Labuan Bajo Hotel and the Shabuan Bajo Hotel.
At the two locations, BMKG has conducted an assessment of checking evacuation route signs and tsunami early warning systems.
BMKG has also confirmed that evacuation sites can be reached immediately when an earthquake and tsunami occur.
"For example, the tribune of the archipelago's stairs in the waterfront port area, is an area with a maximum estimated height, the stands can be used as an evacuation site," he said.
Furthermore, Suci said that she had confirmed that all evacuation sites must be reached quickly in the event of a tsunami.
"At a height of four meters, it has become a safe zone for the community and participants of the Summit to evacuate the tsunami," he said.

BMKG has taken efforts to mitigate earthquake and tsunami disasters considering Labuan Bajo has this potential.
Based on existing modeling, the Labuan Bajo area is on the north side in conflict with the Flores rear arc fracture zone which has a maximum magnitude potential of around 7.5.
"But we are talking about potential, we never know when it will happen. We are talking about potential, not predictions. There is no need to worry, because yesterday we conducted an assessment of checking evacuation route signs and tsunami early warning systems," he said.
The series of ASEAN's 42nd Summit began with a Senior Official Meeting at MICE Golo Mori Labuan Bajo today.
Furthermore, ASEAN heads of state are scheduled to arrive in Labuan Bajo, Tuesday, and take part in the welcoming dinner on Wednesday, May 10.
