Subject: Helpful Disaster Management Tips for Milne Bay People

This Page is for Helpful Disaster Management Tips or Practices and I wish to sincerely ask any Milne Bay interested citizens to contribute. Please be constructive in your presentation. You can ask questions, make suggestions, give examples of experiences through your local settings concerning the structural mechanism and the "hows" and "whens" or "whys" you practice this way and not that way in trying to remedy the effects or impacts of the common disasters in Milne Bay Province etc. etc.

The key word to begin with is "DISASTER" and with it are the words like, "human-cause disaster" and "natural-caused disaster". I will come back to you on the definitions late on. Meanwhile, think of the following hazard trigering disasters: Drought, tropical cyclone, flood, landslide, earthquake, tsunami, oil spill, fire, accidents involving boats, canoes, dinghies, planes and big trucks etc.

Think of the countermeasures put in placed for rapid response, for prevention, for preparation, for restoration and ofcourse for strategic planning and development by your traditional, local community and the provincial authorities.

I will leave you here and the next time when I come your way, I will try to explain the definitions of the concepts raised in this first page.
