| Popis: | 99 “The Disaster Prevention and Response Act” was announced in 2000, in which principles of prevention and response for all kinds of disasters are regulated. However, the disaster reduction systems within central or local governments are all collateral units. When disasters of large scale such as typhoon Morakot occur, the government is not able to response promptly to people’s needs, resulting in criticism from the public. This shows that our local governments are in lack of the ability to response to disasters, and also that our disaster reduction system is incomplete. This essay uses the problems that disaster reduction systems within three levels of governments have encountered for example to further discuss the necessity for local governments to establish a higher-ranked disaster reduction unit operated by responsible unit and personnel to serve the functions of communication, coordination, integration, planning, and supervision. Taoyuan County is now upgraded as municipality. If it can work on establishing “Disaster reduction office” during this historical moment, it can serve as the leader among all cities and counties, setting a milestone in disaster prevention history. |
