Communication is a critical element in disaster preparedness and emergency management, to keep citizens up to date with what is happening prior, during and after a disaster. In an emergency, every second counts. Save and share these important contact numbers with your family and friends.

Whether we like it or not, and regardless of our beliefs, the national disaster emergency management team, in the interest of the public, makes decisions with every citizen in mind. While the relevant authorities do their part, we must take personal responsibility to protect ourselves, our family, and our property.

Flooding can occur anywhere that it rains. Ensure that you stay up-to-date with current weather updates and additional information from the relevant authorities and take action where necessary.
