Community's Role In Disaster Training
By Za'im Zaini
Bandar Seri Begawan - "Members of the community are to be included for participation in preparation training in case of a disaster."
This was urged by Pehin Orang Kaya Indera Pahlawan Dato Seri Setia Haji Suyoi, Minister of Health, who was guest of honour at the opening ceremony of the Public Health Emergency Response Training at the Sheraton Utama Hotel in the capital last night.
Speaking to the participants of the programme, he said, "The greatest challenge will be how to sustain your interest. It will seriously affect your preparedness level if you later become complacent as you wait for disasters to happen. It is imperative that the agencies responsible continue to conduct preparedness training even in the absence of impending disasters and to widen participation to include members of the community as they will be the ones (affected) if a disaster does strike."
"With emerging diseases posing a real threat and looming before us and with other forms of disasters that could happen when we least expect, we have to recognise the collective need for heightened levels of vigilance, commitment and resources to safeguard public health against outbreaks:'
He added that. "The key elements in national as well as global disaster and disease outbreak management involve effective cooperation at the national and international levels."
Natural disasters result in tens of thousands of deaths and adversely affect the lives of millions of people. Over the last 28 years natural disasters alone have caused over US$100 billion worth of material damage.
Given the potential for the breakdown of public health services as a result of natural and man-made disasters, the Ministry of Health welcomes actions aimed at supporting and improving preparedness and capacity of healthcare systems to meet health challenges posed by emergencies.
Effective disaster response requires adequate and advance planning, preparation and practice. Well trained professionals play critical roles in disaster responses. Human capacity enhancement is an important component of disaster preparedness.
The Institute of Medicine as the organiser of the event and the Ministry of Health and all relevant departments should consider this a top priority.
Catastrophic events come without warning or there is some prior notice. It is essential that the leadership roles, responsibilities, and lines of authority for responding to such an event be clearly defined and effectively communicated in order to facilitate rapid decision-making.
It is important to recognise that public health preparedness is only one aspect, albeit an important one, in the overall emergency and disaster preparedness of any country or even region.
Although we focus specifically on public health and the interface between hospitals and health departments, many aspects of public health preparedness will require involvement of non-health stakeholders as well.
Health organisations are not simply coordinating with one another, but also must coordinate and build relationships with these other non-health entities to address the multifaceted aspects of preparedness.
In welcoming remarks, the chairman of the working committee of the Public Health Response Training, Dr Zaw Wint, said, -The course aims to provide up-to-date knowledge and skills to the professionals in the field of disaster management by bench marking with up-to-date know-how from the Centers of Disease and Control.
"It will particularly focus on the public health aspect of managing emergencies and disasters in two -tracks' during this week long training."
The first -track- caters to first responders to the disasters and emergencies in managing mass casualty events. The second "track" provides advanced level training in public health management emergencies and its management targeting the planners at the management level.
The event drew 55 participants (38 active and 17 observers) who include health care providers, related professionals, health care managers and planners, personnel from National Disaster Management Centre, Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Home Affairs and other relevant agencies.
The programme will be conducted by consultants from the CDC in two tracks. The first track is the "The Management of Mass Casualty Events" by Dr Bill Rich, and the second track is "Advanced level training in public health emergencies and its management" by Dr Paul Giannone.
Dr Bill Rich is a long-time emergency responder and trainer with a career spanning over 29 years, among them, in the US Navy, Fire and Rescue Services and state disaster medical assistance team of Georgia State.
Dr Paul Giannone was Team Leader at CDC Public Health Team for the Hurricane Katrina 2005, the Incident Manager at CDC Disaster Emergency Operations Centre, and the Team Coordinator at CARE Afghanistan/Pakistan Border 2001.
The guest of honour presented souvenirs to the workshop facilitators.
The event was jointly organised by the Institute of Health, Universiti Brunei Darussalam and Centers for Disease Control, Atlanta, US.

Nation抯 First Sleep Lab Opens
By P Marilyn

Involve Youths, Minister Tells Mukim, Village Councils
By Azaraimy & Za'im Zaini
Bandar Seri Begawan - It is important for mukim and village consultative councils to get all levels of the community including the youths involved in all of their projects, as they will be the ones who will carry on such efforts in future.
This was stated by the Minister of Home Affairs, Pehin Orang Kaya Johan Pahlawan Date Seri Setia Awg Hj Adanan who chaired a meeting with members of the Mukim and Village Consultative Council Organising Board, penghulus, village leaders, heads of longhouses and members of Mukim and Village Consultative Councils in Tutong yesterday.
Pehin Adanan, who is also the chairman of the Mukim and Village Consultative Council Organising Board, also called on mukim and village consultative councils to become "motivators" for the local community.
As every mukim and village has its own unique qualities, Pehin Adanan believes that the "Sam Kampung, Sam Produk" (One Village, One Product) vision could become a catalyst that will develop the economy and improve the standard of living of communities.
It is hoped that the consultative councils would be raised to a more successful and competitive level to improve the harmony, welfare and success of their respective mukim or village, he said.
The Ministry of Home Affairs has allocated a budget of $125,000 for 2007 to 2008 to assist mukim and village consultative councils in organising projects or work programmes.
The minister said that it is important for councils to strengthen the culture of helping each other and caring for the less fortunate in their respective communities. This includes giving assistance to government agencies in weeding out negative elements in society such as criminals, drug abusers and immigration offenders.
"We want to see the mukim and village consultative councils in this district (Tutong) active in implementing programmes that will uplift the image and credibility of the consultative council," Pehin Adanan said, adding that it is important to gain trust from the local community.
One of the main objectives of yesterday's meeting was to clarify new regulations for the organising board as well as the mukim and village consultative councils in Tutong.
Among those who attended the meeting were: Deputy Minister of Home Affairs cum Deputy Chairman of the Mukim and Village Consultative Council Organising Board Pehin Dato Paduka Awang Hj Dani bin Hj Ibrahim; and Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Home Affairs, Awg Hj Mohd Mandi bin Pehin Dato Laila Utama Hj Awang Abdul Rahman.
Permanent secretaries and deputy permanent secretaries of other ministries as well as representatives of various government ministries and departments were also present.
After the recital of Surah Al-Fatihah, a speech was delivered by Acting Tutong District Officer Awg Hj Jamain bin Momin.
Deputy Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Home Affairs Dato Paduka Awg Hj Adnan bin Hj Hanafiah also briefed about the amendments to the regulations for the organising board as well as mukim and village consultative councils, which was enforced by His Majesty the Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam on May 1, 2006.
At the end of the meeting, there was a Q&A session with the mukim and village consultative council members of the district. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin |
