It couldn't have been minimised that much. The problems with tsunamis is that we are still unable to predict them. Things such as high walls and stronger buildings along with better awareness from the people may have minimised the impact. Also pipelines can be fitted with smartmeters which shut of gas and whatever else when they are broken therefore preventing fires, though this wasn't a major issue for the 2004 tsunami.
