More than half of Tokyo's residents are disturbed by the thought of the next Great Kanto Earthquake striking the capital, a police survey showed Thursday.

Some 94.3 percent of Tokyoites polled expressed some form of concern over a disastrous earthquake and tsunami devastating the capital, and 52.5 percent strongly feared such a scenario, according to the survey.

The Metropolitan Police Department survey covered 2,561 residents who visited police offices in Tokyo last October for license renewals.
