As a country, Indonesia is vulnerable to disasters. Whether it was caused by nature such as earthquakes and tsunamis, non-nature factors such as epidemics, and human factors such as social conflicts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Whatever the cause is, disasters could lead to the loss of human life, properties, and psychological effects on its victims.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
