On the first day (10/7) in Palu area, The Mustard Seed Mission volunteer team visited many places and key persons in order to collect more information and data about the disaster. Then, they looked after the community map to plan the widely understand the community situation for the preparation of disaster risk reduction.
Along the way, there are still many places in the disaster area that have not been rebuilt and restored.
In Mpanau Village, about 50 temporary houses were rebuilt in situ. It is forbidden to build any house within 100 meters of the coastline according to the government's strategy to rebuild the disaster areas; however, temporary houses are not limited to this.
So about 50 temporary houses were still being rebuilt in situ. Most of the community people were in relatives' homes before the temporary house construction is completed. Temporary houses would become permanent houses if people did not move out for a long time.
However, to know how to quickly respond to natural disasters is crucial to the affected villagers. The Mustard Seed Mission is focusing on disaster risk reduction education so sending a volunteer team in October 2019 to share and guide local government, schools, and villagers to know the knowledge and skills about disaster prevention and risk reduction.
