"AN ACT TO ESTABLISH DISASTER PREPAREDNESS AND MITIGATION MEASURES"

The Philippines is geographically located in the circum-pacific belt of fire and typhoon in the Asia-Pacific region. Thus, it is prone to natural disasters. It has continually sought to survive against many calamities, including typhoons, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions, as well as fire, plane crashes, and maritime collisions.
