Human beings have been facing natural disaster for thousands of years yet it is now we are able to mitigate, minimise and even avoid them. This possibility added to the higher level of communication between the people of different part of the world has certainly raised the expectation of the disaster hit people. Many responsible and democratic governments are being successful to use the modern techniques and utilizing the international aid to remove the pain of disaster hit communities. But the recent incidence of cyclone nargis in burma has shown a worst combination of a irresponsible government and prior neglegence of the upcoming disaster. The result is million of people suffering from the lack of basic human necessities and inablity of a government to help their citizens in the time of need.
This may be the trigger for the violence in the country already in a volatile political situation.
this is the case of violence ignited by the mismanagement of the conflict. Often the preparedness is undermined to the scale of disaster as in the case of China earthquake overwelming the country with the worlds biggest army. But it is what a government does after a disaster then what it does before in the case of earthquake while in the predictable disaster like cyclone and floodig it is what the government does before and after disaster strike plays role in deciding if violence will prevail or not.
It os obvious that people in the way to securing their bas9c daily necesseties can be involvd in violence. But it is the duty state and international community to prevent them by providing adequete aid to them in the time of need. Security of the basic need is also necessary now since the climate now is unpredictable and the current level of preparedness is shown to be failed to reach the needy people in time triggering the violence.
