Sumatera is one if the areas that is located in the high land. Geographically, it is lied in the volcanic high land that is formed by Bukit barisan Mountain range Sumatera Barat which is rich in natural resources. But unfortunately, due ti its location, West Sumatera has also potentials to various natural disasters like earth quake, tsunami, landslide, land movement, flood and fire if compared to other areas as mentioned in National Action Plan for Disaster Risk Reduction 2012. There have been many preventive actions that have been done by the government. However, those actions are not accompanied by disaster logistics improvement. Modelling is undergone by optimizing the needs pf disaster logistics by considering the characteristics of disaster prone areas. This research is intended to predict the logistics needs by optimizing the needs of disaster victims in west sumatera. The method used is regression analysis by predicting yearly disaster logistics needs. The result of this research showed that the best mode is Y=401.81 + 0.001X1 + 14.55X6 + 37.58X9 – 10.53X14 with the prediction increase of the logistics needs for about 2.3% every year.

Iraq is at risk of multiple hazards including both natural and man-made calamities. Little effort had been made before 2003 to address the disaster risk; even though many legislations enacted to provide a relief in the event of the acute crisis, they were mainly focused on the reactive response to the calamities without taking into consideration the prevention, preparedness and mitigation approach. The recent years have witnessed some positive attitude from the government and international society to develop strategies for disaster risk reduction in Iraq. Iraq for the first time has drafted a law that is distinctive for the disasters. The purpose of this article is to review the possibilities and challenges of disaster risk reduction in Iraq.

This chapter discusses India’s role in international climate law and its domestic law on climate change, and demonstrates the limits of its legal position in addressing climate-related threats. Climate change presents a complex challenge for India, which is reflected in its evolving set of climate change laws and policies. Aside from being one of countries most vulnerable to climate change, India is home to some of the world’s poorest people whose lives and property are threatened by climate change. The government has adopted various initiatives to comply with the Kyoto Protocol. The central national initiative on climate change is the National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC). Action under NAPCC is premised on the principle of sustainable development, which for the purposes of climate change means achieving growth while at the same time minimizing greenhouse gas emissions.

Banda Aceh

The 30 September 2009 Padang Pariaman (or West Sumatera Earthquake) (M = 7.6 USGS) has caused severe damages of buildings and infrastructures and fatalities. Many of the buildings failed may be due to the low quality of the structures or due to that most buildings were designed Indonesian code SNI 1726-2002, and many of them failed because of the occurrence of liquefaction causing foundation failures. However, a future earthquake could have been even more severe and causes a tsunami, a reality which we shall consider, especially because Padang City is located facing directly to the ocean. Based on the occurrence and experience in Banda Aceh, Padang City has similar risk and yet very limited barrier and lack of evacuation system. For evaluation of this issue, a team of Universitas Katolik Parahyangan conducted a preliminary study on the condition of Padang City and discuss some alternatives to be considered by the government or authority. Methods of research are based on a literature study and collected data for analysis. Options are discussed and conclusions are derived. This paper discusses the important lessons from Banda Aceh failures related to the tsunami, and method to reduce the disaster risk for Padang City by Tsunami Seawall. The purpose of this study is to discuss the risk of the tsunami at Padang City, the preparedness and local condition, and alternative actions to be carried out. There has been pro and cons for Seawall, but the study concluded that due to the fact that tsunami would reach the city within 15-30 minutes after the earthquake and condition of low lying elevation of the Padang City, the use of Seawall for city safety is worth to be considered.

Abstract Disaster management (DM) gets a new dimension with the ratification of Law No. 24 (2007) on disaster management followed some related rules. DM as an thorough effort is started by disaster risk reduction, emergency, rehabilitation, and reconstruction. Based on the authority, DM needs to be in a comprehensive policy level ranging from national, regional, up to the village scope as a front guard of the government, though DM is not only the responsibility of government, where the people have to also actively participate. Pujiharjo Village, Tirtoyudo District, Malang, is one of villages potentially affected by natural disasters, ranging from erosion and flooding. This village as the smallest government unit interacting with the community, has policies that are poured into village regulations (Perdes) about the disaster management with local knowledge to reduce disaster risk. Thus, the community is expected to be tougher because they can anticipate and minimize the disaster risk by breakthrough adaptation, ability to handle and keep the structure, and function certain basic in times of disasters. Even if affected by any disaster, they would quickly rebuild into normal or at least can independently recover. Desa Tangguh (Tough Village) as a national program of BNPB, can also act as the responsibility of a government against people in the disaster management.  Keyword : Disaster Management, Regulations, Village       Abstrak   Penanggulangan bencana (PB) mendapat dimensi baru dengan diterbitkannya UU No. 24 (2007) tentang penanggulangan bencana yang diikuti beberapa aturan terkait. PB sebagai upaya menyeluruh dan proaktif dimulai dari pengurangan risiko bencana, tanggap darurat, rehabilitasi, dan rekonstruksi. Berdasarkan kewenangannya, PB perlu memiliki kebijakan komprehensif mulai dari tingkat nasional, regional, hingga ruang lingkup desa sebagai ujung tombak pemerintahan, meski PB bukan hanya tanggung jawab pemerintah, di mana rakyat juga harus ikut aktif. Desa Pujiharjo, Kecamatan Tirtoyudo, Malang, adalah salah satu desa yang berpotensi terkena bencana alam, mulai dari erosi hingga banjir. Desa ini sebagai unit pemerintah terkecil yang berinteraksi dengan masyarakat, memiliki kebijakan yang dituangkan ke dalam peraturan desa (Perdes) tentang manajemen bencana dengan pengetahuan lokal untuk mengurangi risiko bencana. Dengan demikian, masyarakat diharapkan lebih tangguh karena mereka dapat mengantisipasi dan meminimalkan risiko bencana dengan melakukan terobosan adaptasi, kemampuan menangani dan menjaga struktur, dan fungsi dasar tertentu pada saat bencana. Bahkan jika terdampak bencana, mereka akan dengan cepat membangun kembali hingga normal atau setidaknya dapat pulih secara mandiri. Desa Tangguh sebagai program nasional BNPB, juga dapat berperan sebagai tanggung jawab pemerintah terhadap masyarakat dalam manajemen bencana.  Kata kunci: Penanggulangan Bencana, Paraturan, Desa

Disasters cause deaths and serious disruptions in society, which call for the global community to take drastic steps to address and reduce the impacts of these inevitable calamities. That is why the government, through the Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction Management Act of 2010, requires the integration of disaster risk reduction in the school curriculum to strengthen the awareness and practice of personnel and students on calamity preparedness. Hence, the paper assessed the level of awareness and extent of practice on disaster preparedness before, during, and after the disaster of public junior high school students in Antique. Likewise, it sought to establish a difference in awareness and practice on disaster preparedness relative to sex, residence, and grade level and the relationship between awareness and practice.
