Failures in regulation and compliance were identified as the key vulnerability and disaster causes in most countries. The beneficiaries were actually unaware of non-compliance that exposed them to hazard. The literature review presented here draws attention to public practices from a variety of cultural/national contexts. Using Malaysia as a case study, this book focused on pre and post-disaster planning since the adoption of the Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA) 2005-2015.
