“…Spencer (2017) proposed that the government supports can be in form of allocation of financial aid to vulnerable locations when disaster strikes. Good practice of government support is from Japan that they create Government of Japan (GoJ)'s Basic Guideline to Recovery (Walker & Crawford, 2017).…”

Yogyakarta City is passed by three rivers, i.e. Winongo River, Code River, and Gajahwong River. Due to that geological condition, Yogyakarta City is prone to annual flood more often than the other types of disaster. Dealing with the risk, the Yogyakarta City Government introduces Kampung Tangguh Bencana or disaster resilient villages (DRV). DRV is a village which has an ability to identify hazards in its environment and is able to organize the human resources in reducing the susceptibility as well as increasing the capacity to reduce the disaster risks. These abilities are carried out in development planning and capacity enhancement in restoration after the emergency condition. Thus, it is important for DRVs to understand the responsiveness and the ability to become autonomous in flood countermeasurement in Yogyakarta City. In order to find out the responsiveness of DRVs in handling the flood, a research using qualitative approach was performed through a set of interviews with key persons. Information was gained from related stakeholders, such as the local government officers, community, and local agency for disaster management (Badan Penanggulangan Bencana Daerah or BPBD) as the organizer of the program. Triangulation method was performed to find out the synchronization between stakeholders. The villages observed in this research were Karanganyar, Warungboto, and Wirobrajan which were located on the river bank. The result of this research covered the description in handling flood through DRVs, the form and identity of DRVs, the contract-expand model action in the management phases of disaster, as well as the advantages and weaknesses of DRVs. The data gained was analyzed in depth by comparing the responsiveness and the ability to become autonomous in the three villages. The recommended formulation was given to the DRVs, the local government, and the local community to carry out the DRVs effectively and sustainably.

“…There are about 65 buildings distributed over 100Km 2 of downtown which are designed as earthquake and tsunami shelters. These shelters are expected to function properly, both in terms of structural strength and altitude, which are higher than the tsunami height inundation [15,16]. The tsunami inundation probability is worsened by the topographic condition of the city of Padang.…”

Padang is the capital of West Sumatra Province, close to three earthquake sources such as the Megathrust Zone, the Mentawai Fault, and the Great Sumatra Fault on the mainland. Due to the fact that the impact of the earthquake can create a tsunami event in the future, the government needs to prepare shelters for vertical evacuation. About 65 existing buildings have been selected as vertical evacuation buildings, but there is no clear information on their seismic performance. This research proposes a complete assessment of the existing RC building by considering soil characteristics such as the predominant period and Vs30 from microtremor observations. A selected 3 stories of a school building located in the earthquake red zone (Vs30 < 150m/s and predominant period T > 1.5s), less than 1 Km far from the shoreline, was considered in this paper. Based on the seismic index evaluation of the building, the X direction is smaller than the seismic demand (0.8) for the first and second floors (unsatisfactory). For the first, second and third floor, the Y direction has a larger seismic index than the seismic demand. Therefore, the performance is satisfactory for the first to the third story. Based on the required inspection, the building is unsatisfactory for the X-direction. Therefore, it needs to be strengthened. We propose a re-size of the RC for the building column to improve the ductility. The proposed size for the column is 50 x 60 cm. From the re-seismic evaluation, a satisfactory seismic index for the X and Y direction can be obtained.
