Disaster Management (DM) has two types - ERT and DPT. The ERT, Emergency Management Type is lead by Security Related Agencies, focuses more on response. It is a Cure Method done for the victims. In this type at time of disaster, all related agencies will be actively dedicate for better response and at the time of no-disaster, the designated nodal agency for disaster management feels bit relax, as this method gives less focus on disaster preparedness. The DPT, Disaster Preparedness Type is lead by Development Related Agencies, focuses more on preparedness. It is a Care Method done for everyone. In this type at time of no-disaster, all related agencies actively participate for better preparedness and at the time of disaster, the DPT cannot work well. So-many countries including Nepal is adopting the ERT Model of DM and so-many countries including Japan is adopting the DPT Model of DM, being discussed at the Seminar by Dr. Ogawa from University of Tokyo in his slides at Yokohama Campus, where I also made a half-an hour presentation about the DM System of Nepal.
