This paper summarizes the Ms 6.0 earthquake disaster that occurred in Changning, Sichuan Province, China, on 17 10 June 2019. Additionally, a description of the disaster emergency response is provided. As determined by on-site investigation and analysis, the direct causes of earthquake casualties are summarized. Among them, 66% of the casualties can be attributed to substandard seismic protection, 25% to improper earthquake risk avoidance, 6% to earthquake-induced geological disasters, and 3% to pre-existing diseases exacerbated by the earthquake. Responding to the causes of these four casualty types, we summarize 4 lessons, which are to build in accordance with seismic protection requirements; strengthen publicity and 15 education awareness of earthquake emergency evacuation and training for the population; investigate and evaluate potential geological disaster sources in the stricken area, along with conducting prevention and control; establish cooperation with health organizations, focusing on people who are older or have serious illnesses and conducting earthquake evacuation training and psychological counselling. 1 Disaster characteristics and disaster situation 20 An Ms 6.0 (Mw 5.8) earthquake struck Changning County, Yibin City, Sichuan Province, China, at 22:55:43 on 17 June 2019 (14:55:43 UTC on 17 June 2019).

Here green hills and blue waters, cultivation in the morning and weeding in the evening, It is a quiet and peaceful southern town. In the past years, every time the festival, or when the wedding, some villagers spontaneously organize themselves, dressed in red and green, pick up a pair of small cymbals and wave them in their hands, many times there will be a small gong and drum band that play the suona alongside, if the conditions are not enough, as long as one person can also perform. The shape of this small cymbals is very similar to the dumplings that are eaten during the festival, and during the performance, both hands need to swing the rope, turn the pair of the old festival, and over the top of the head, or turn around and flip around the waist and legs, therefore, this folk dance was initially called " Fanshengjiaozi." Because Longgang Town is located in the Daba Mountain Area, it is often necessary for performers to tramp over mountains and through ravines to pick up bride, therefore, it is also called "Fanshanjiaozi".

In early August 2009, I led a group of international scholars of Hmong studies to do a post conference visit to the Hmong/Miao in Guizhou Province, China. This visit was under the auspices and sponsorship of the Guizhou Miao Studies Association (also known as the Miao Cultural Development Association), and the guidance of its Vice-President, Professor Zhang Xiao. The group visited both Qiandongnan (Southeast Guizhou) and Qianxi (West Guizhou) Hmong/Miao of Guizou. The visit was my third trip to Qiandongnan, so it was not so special because I had previously written about and travelled to many areas within Qiandongnan. Moreover, Qiandongnan has been Guizhou’s premier cultural tourist region for decades; the Hmu represent the largest sub-group of the Miao in Qiandongnan. The language of the Hmu belongs to the Eastern branch of the Miao language. Economically, educationally, and politically, the Hmu are much better off than the Hmong and Ah Mao, who speak the Western branch of the Miao language. For example, I met with so many politicians, bureaucrats and professors of Hmu ancestry in Guiyang, but only one professor of Hmong descent.
