Fuzzy‐based gaps assessment of flood disaster risk reduction management systems in Metro Manila, Philippines

Abstract: Planning and prioritization in flood disaster risk reduction (FDRR) is critical and often tedious to both planners and decision-makers. In Metro Manila, Philippines, flooding is a perennial problem that requires regular assessments and updating of its municipal-based FDRR management systems. A simple, but practical approach may prove useful in the identification of priority schemes, especially when the need for improvement is urgent and resources are limited. This study provides a simple quantitative approach … Show more

“…Rapidity, or swift access to assets such as disaster-related information and resources, is the factor that contributed the least to the community's resilience. Although early warning systems (EWS) are already in place to disseminate disaster-related information [71] in the community, previous studies indicate that access to disaster risk information and communication channels embedded in existing social structures and timely updates improve preparedness and adaptive capacities [100]. Moreover, this points to the importance of an information system that leverages community trust and leadership to further enhance the community's receptiveness and alertness towards disaster risk information and therefore influences their intentions to prepare for present and future risks [105,106].…”

“…On 26 September 2009, unprecedented rainfall and subsequent flooding caused by tropical storm Ketsana (known locally as "Ondoy") submerged 34% of Metro Manila. The effects were devasting for approximately 4.9 million residents, including 464 casualties, 37 missing persons, and an estimated USD 240 million in damage to property and infrastructure [71]. Following the aftermath, the national government set aside PHP 50 billion to relocate ISFs living within 3 meters of eight priority waterways across Metro Manila (Figure 2) and provide them with safer housing [72].…”

“…Based on a fuzzy multiattribute decision-making technique, this research presents a simple quantitative approach to gap evaluation for FDRR management systems. The Metro Manila study's findings indicate that gaps may be rated and quantified to set priority schemes for enhancing FDRR management systems, focusing on the following FDRR management systems: prevention, readiness, response, and disaster recovery (Gilbuena et al, 2019). According to Andrew (2018), the government also invested in physical mitigation measures to preserve vital infrastructure, such as major roadways and hydropower plants.…”

“…At a broader scale, many scholars have developed DPM assessment systems for cities. Gilbuena et al [27] used the fuzzy multi-attribute decision-making method to quantitatively evaluate the flood disaster risk reduction management system of Damanila, Philippines. The results indicated that the optimization scheme should mainly focus on prevention, preparation, response, and disaster recovery.…”
