“…As such, understanding the multiple stress and shocks and their impacts on the social, economic and environmental systems is important for sustainability and human well-being (Berkes, 2013), (May, 2022), (Jinglu, 2022), (Birchall, 2022), (Melika, 2021). Besides understanding these stress and shocks, it is vitally important to understand the preparedness level of all residents in a geographic location.…”

Malaysian National Security Council (MNSC) defines disaster as an incident that occurs unexpectedly, resulting in the loss of lives and damage to properties, environment and daily activities of the local community. Disastrous events such as floods, earthquakes, terrorism, increase in population, cyber-attacks, pandemics, rising sea levels, economic recessions, urbanization, etc., have been increasing globally and also in Malaysia. The wellbeing of our Malaysian communities depends on a complex web of institutions, infrastructure and information. To reduce the disaster risk and impact, various efforts have to be in place to prepare and empower the community. As such, this paper is positioned at understanding this preparedness level among undergraduate engineering students in Malaysia. During emergencies, such undergraduate students should be able to rise and assist in national development from a disaster. In this study, we are focused to evaluate the engineering students in Malaysia in particular for knowledge (K), attitude (A) and readiness to practice (rP) regarding disaster preparedness. This is an exploratory study done through a questionnaire distributed among engineering undergraduate students in some selected public (one) and private universities (two) in Malaysia. Almost half of the participants understood that Malaysia is at risk of disasters and that these disasters come in many size and shapes. These participants also significantly understand the potential of risk of emergencies in Malaysia. However, the respondents indicated that they have not had real exposure or handling experience on this topic. There was a huge agreement that there is a lack of support from local officials in terms of organizational logistics and roles among local and national agencies in disaster response. This study has shown that the literature is scarce in terms of understanding the student agency for disaster preparedness. There is a need for relevant stakeholders like the Board of Engineers Malaysia to prepare engineering undergraduates for disaster management to strengthen the social fabric towards such risks.

“…Indonesia's geological condition, as it is located in the plate confluence zone, causes geological disasters (Arifin, 2016;Pribadi et al, 2021). The potential for disasters is exacerbated by global climate change, which has become an international issue recently (Haggag, Yosri, El-Dakhakhni, & Hassini, 2022;Hansen, 2022). Indonesia's latest disaster was Poso Earthquake, with a magnitude of 6.6 MW carrying extraordinary effects on land and settlements (Sianipar, Daniarsyad, Priyobudi, Heryandoko, & Daryono, 2021).…”

Kendari City has multiple disasters hazard, especially floods and landslides. Consequently, the city requires systematic preventive efforts to minimize the potential disaster risk. This study aims to create a spatial model to determine the resilience of the land against floods and landslides with an ecosystem services approach. We used Sentinel-2 and DEMNAS (National Digital Elevation Model of Indonesia) as our primary data collection tools. Sentinel-2 was used to compile land use maps, and DEMNAS was the basis for compiling landform maps. The integration of the two was carried out by the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The results showed that 8,259.98 acres (30.01 percent) of land in Kendari had low resilience to disasters. Those areas are located in a residential area on the TWH (Rocky hill over mixed sedimentary rocks) and KHY (Coalescent estuarine/riverine plain) landforms. The dominant disaster hazard in the area is inundation flooding that occurs almost every year in Kendari. Poor soil infiltration capacity is one factor affecting the area become vulnerable to flooding.
