KUALA LUMPUR: The government will introduce a national disaster risk management policy as a preparatory step to face the monsoon transition phase, said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
He said the policy being drafted by the National Disaster Management Agency (Nadma) is part of the government's efforts to ensure the country is more prepared and resilient to disasters, especially in the context of climate change and more frequent extreme weather.
