Conclusions

Repeat floods are a mainstream of disasters.Mainstreaming of disaster is how to reduce flood risks.

For DRR and CCA it is important to reduce vulnerability exposure and hazardFor DRR and CCA, it is important to reduce vulnerability, exposure and hazard.

What we can do?h d i i l bili d iWe have good practices in vulnerability reduction.

Now we should focus on exposure and hazard reduction.To make progress of them, an office of each river should play a key role.

The river office should implement daily/monthly/yearly research.Do not say “luck of fund” but implement what it can do “within the fund”.y p

That is the best way to save cost for disaster risk reduction in total.

The government and the international society should discuss budget allocation.The government and the international society should discuss budget allocation.Provide research budget first to promote response and preparedness later.

That is the best way to ensure the society to develop sustainably.

Thank you very much for further discussion. 37
