| description | Floods are the most frequently reported natural disasters in Malaysia.The flood does not only occur in Malaysia, but also in Asia, Europe and other country.Flood mitigation is one of the phases in the disaster management cycle.Disaster management is a systematic process to reduce the impact of natural disaster and establish a plan to
prepare the nation or community to face the impact on their economic, social and physical livelihood. Disaster management is really important as it is possible to prevent or at least mitigate damage that is brought upon by disaster.The aim of this research is to explore the existing knowledge on disaster management and to identify methods of
flood mitigation currently applied.The research is based on published literature review and past research to achieve the objective.Online search such as Google scholar and online databases were used to search and collect the relevant literature, resulting 35 survey studies that fulfil the criteria.The literature and past research from years 2010-2016 were chosen as the limit option in order to get the latest flood mitigation published literature.The findings from this research can assist future research in identifying the gaps in the current literature on flood mitigation efforts, particularly in South East Asia. |
