Why don't they prepare for earthquake?

I wonder why most of the countries along Pacific Earthquake Belt don't take measures for collapsing of the fragile buildings.
In Japan, Every building built after Hanshin Earthquake is durable even if it's shaken by magnitude 7 class earthquake.

But, some buildings in Taiwan and Papua New Guinea, which huge earthquake hit, seem to collapse easily.

If the reason why they don't take measures for earthquake is financial issue, United Nations should think about how to ensure money for that.
