dc.description.abstract | There are many types of natural disaster in the distinctive environment of Taiwan. Especially, under the tremendous transition of life style and social circumstance in population, land development and use intensity for decades, the society for vulnerability of disaster risk is on the increase obviously with globe climate change which is considerably different day by day. Compared with the impact in the past time, the impact which a disaster brings nowadays probably causes a greater effect. According to the research, the proportion of population and land area of three natural disasters that happened in Taiwan is 73%, and the proportion of population and land area of two natural disasters that happened in Taiwan is 90%~95%, both proportions are first ranking in the world. Therefore, Taiwan is high disaster potential analysis region; it goes without saying that we have to emphasize the important of disaster of prevention and protection.
According to Article 20 of Disaster Prevention and Protection Act, the executive units of municipal, or county(city) disaster prevention and protection council shall draw up regional prevention and protection plan according to the Disaster Prevention and Protection Basic Plan, related disaster prevention and protection operation plans and potential characteristics of regional disasters, seek the authorization from respective disaster prevention and protection councils for implementation and report to the Central Disaster Prevention and Protection Council for reference. Formerly, through the promotion and implement of assisting the municipal, or county/city government to enhance middle disaster prevention and protection plan for three years; moreover, the alliance and cooperation of government, enterprise and higher educations, local government not only applies the work of disaster prevention and protection technology to the primary disaster prevention and protection business, but also raises our disaster prevention and protection ability obviously. The municipal, or county/city regional plan of disaster prevention and protection have been amended to be specific and feasible. However, it is not easy for local government to implement regional disaster prevention and protection result from insufficient disaster prevention and protection specialty, staff and unit of literacy and competence to coordinate, integrate, supervise, and implement related items of disaster prevention and protection. At the same time, as far as Disaster Prevention and Protection Act is concerned, not only the municipal government, or county (city) governments but also township (city) office in disaster prevention and protection system is in charge of disaster prevention procedures, and the investigation shows that the instituion which assist the local government is lack of techniques, experiment and human resource in any aspect relatively. In addition, the competence and mechanism of municipal government in the past is under-performed situation, so that municipal government , county (city) doesn’t consult and enhance township (city) office about the disaster prevention mission and implementation or regional disaster prevention plan draft and execution . Hence, the central regulating authorities, municipal government and county (city) are playing an important role in the execution of disaster prevention and protection in Taiwan. The township (city) office doesn’t actively participate in those related items as a leading role. This make disaster prevention and protection not to proceed at first time, it still needs to depend on the superior government organization’s assistance and logistic support. Consequently, we do the comparison by means of observation field and citation. Then, we hope to find out those related shortcomings and problems, review the operating procedure, and supply policy, furthermore, those can enhance disaster prevention and protection competence of the township (city) office.
