Community Knowledge Management is the main thrust of this research paper and on the side of the citizens, for the Housing, the majority citizens have the same knowledge on the over- all safety of their house in case of disaster and the safety of their appliances/furniture at home. On the other hand, citizens differ in the level of their knowledge on the topography of land where their houses are built and the safety of the houses in their community in case of disaster. In general, the citizens just have a very basic knowledge about their houses and other details such as the topography of land and the safety of houses in their community don’t really matter for them.
For the Storage, the majority of the citizens have almost the same level of preparedness in terms of storing and the adequacy of emergency kits, emergency stocks (rice, noodles, canned goods, medicines) and emergency rescue equipment in both personal and community levels. Clearly, the citizens seemed to be prepared by having their basic needs in case of disaster
For the Evacuation Site/Shelter, the majority of the citizens have equal level of knowledge on the presence, location and safety (physical structure) of the evacuation/shelter sites. On the other hand, citizens differ in the level of knowledge on the topography of their evacuation center. The citizens know where their evacuation sites are but they don’t care much about their safety.
For the LGU support, the majority of the citizens have the same level of knowledge on LGU support in case of disaster. On the other hand, citizens differ in the level of knowledge on the sustainability of LGU support, LGU DRRM programs and the adequacy of LGU DDRRM
efforts in case of disaster. As we can see, the citizens are aware of the LGU disaster programs but they feel that they are not sustainable, adequate and don’t have a trickle-down effect.
For the Community Linkage, the majority of the citizens have the same level of participation in LGU DRRM programs in both personal and community levels. Moreover, all citizens have the same level of participation on DRRM issues and have the same level of knowledge on the importance of community efforts to LGU DRRM programs.
For the both municipalities, one is a coastal and the other is a land-locked, despite having totally different geographical locations, their knowledge on their Housing Strategy, Storage, Evacuation Site/Shelter, LGU support and Community Linkage don’t differ based on their geographical locations. They differ greatly on their individual available knowledge on certain things.
On the side of the LGU, the RA 10121 was their sole basis for the creation of Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction Office at the municipal level and Barangay Disaster Risk Management Council at the barangay level; implementing their Incident Command Systems (ICS); mandatory budget allocation of the 5% of the budget to DRRM fund; and for the basis of the Hazards Maps. In Dipaculao Municipal Disaster risk reduction management council ICS is used on disasters, both natural and man-made, as well as accidents, search and rescue operations, or any incidents that may involve multiple casualties. On the other hand, in Maria Aurora, they were able to start the CMDRR or the Community Manage Disaster Risk Reduction. So far, Brgy. Sta. Lucia and Brgy. Dikildil already have the local version of the DRRM plans. LGU efforts have always been in line with what the law says and they are doing their best to deliver good public services to the people.
