Under several key international policy developments in disaster risk reduction (DRR), climate change and sustainable development, disaster management during response, recovery and preparedness are addressed as a transdisciplinary practice that integrates various issues and stakeholders from different sectors and levels to strengthen social resilience. Together with overview of major hazards observed in Malaysia, specific case studies from both Malaysia and Japan for mitigating flood, earthquake\/tsunami and landslide disasters will be presented to discuss the issues and possible solutions to better cope with these natural disasters.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Course Coordinator :<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12pt;text-align: justify\"><strong>Assoc.
