Every situation needs different approach and different of methods of handling them. For Malaysia, I believe the most suitable one would be the bamboo house since bamboo can always be replenish and is easy to construct too. However, for the countries out there, different method might be better considering the victims situation and the government's ability to provide all the help necessary. I guess this marks as the end of our discussion. Thank you for everyone's opinions and cooperations. We'll see again in class. Good night everyone.

I agree with all of you.

Problems like logistical reasons and mankind's ability to response might be interfere but as long as we have hope, there is nothing impossible to do. I think that shelter box, sheldpack and bamboo house have higher practicality and effectiveness of the designs in a flood disaster situation in Malaysia. Don't you think so?

# data[].attributes.body
Ow yeah, why didn't I think of that. But still it takes some time to build, where would all the victim stay before the shelters is done. I think we still need shelter that we can use on the spot so we can treat all the flood victims who need immediate medical attention.

# data[].attributes.body
I think able victims can also provide help for bamboo house construction.

# data[].attributes.body
What if there is too many flood victim but there is not enough man power to build all the bamboo house

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, I agree with you all. In Malaysia, bamboos is abundant, plus bamboo is easy to be replanted. It is also environmental friendly as it will decompose on it's own in case inhabitants no longer lives in them and they will not leave any harmful residues during and after decomposition. I guess, bamboo house is the most suitable for disaster victims particularly in Malaysia. What do you guys think? Are we in the same page here?

# data[].attributes.body
Making a house using a bamboo is a nice idea. The victims can stay close with their family in the same house. Thus, their anxiety regarding the disaster are disappearing slowly as the time go by. Perhaps when they live as one family and unite, they can bravely face all the problems and gain the determination to begin new life.

# data[].attributes.body
I think making shelter out of bamboos is quite suitable for flood disaster in Malaysia because we can find plenty of them in Malaysia. It also does not consume too much time to build depends on the skill of the people who build it.

# data[].attributes.body
Yeah, those are the downside for shedpack too. How about making house out of bamboos? What do you think?

# data[].attributes.body
That was quite true Ezra. But how about the families that have small child or baby? Don't you think that shedpack are preferable for traveler but not for disaster victims?

# data[].attributes.body
Oh, I was confused because Shigeru did mention something about shipping container too. I think that idea is suitable too. The good side is, it is a shelter made enough to fit in at least 2 families inside. It is also good to be used as a shelter lasting for months while waiting for their home's reconstruction. However, the down side is, after they have all repaired their homes, then the containers would be left empty. And without anyone living inside it, the metals would rot and that would be fatal to the environment.

I personally liked that shedpack idea, although it doesn't provide much privacy and not a good shelter as the containers, but in terms of cost, it is more economical. The shedpack can be used as a bag for cargoes(big or small cargoes) and can be used as a mini tent. And to add more, it can be recollected for future redistribution in case disasters would strike again.

# data[].attributes.body
Nope Ezra, it just another example for shelter types presented in the video.

There are many type of shelters presented in the videos such as shelter box, shedpack, shipping container, small house made of bamboo and last but not least the pallet.

# data[].attributes.body
Are you referring to Shigeru's idea?

# data[].attributes.body
Shelter box might be the best solution since it more convenient to distribute among the victims. Moreover, it contains many useful things such as blanket, tool kit, waters filter and so on. Anyone, what do you think about shipping container? It is suitable to practice in Malaysia especially for post-flood shelter relief?

# data[].attributes.body
I am amazed that he is able to make shelter by using only paper as the main material. Furthermore, the lifespan of the shelter is also quite long. We can also recycle the shelter since that it's made from paper. Therefore, it will not harm the environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, that is quite true Miss Noorli. Against water, papers no matter how much they are reinforced would still be liable to waters. I guess, different disasters requires different types of shelter materials.

But, how about the shelterbox concept? I guess that one can be used even for the victims in Kelantan.

My opinions regarding this matter is, the type of materials used as shelter is important. And not only the shelters, they would need other things such as utensils, pillows and blankets and tool kits for repairs and certainly the shelterbox cover all the above.

# data[].attributes.body
I give my respect to Mr Shigeru. But back to our topic, I do not think that his idea using the paper as the basic construction is the best designs to overcome the flood disaster situation in Malaysia. Do you still remember the horrible and enormous event that occurred in Kelantan? What is your opinion regarding this issue?

# data[].attributes.body
Yeah "Shigeru Ban" I watched that video. Hmm, flood in Kelantan? ,yeah, it did ruined most of the infrastructure, making people homeless and what is the most important thing is that the cost of repairing the damage was high. Oh no, I'm typing very slow.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, I agree with you Ez. Could you imagine how they feel at that time? Loss everything in a blink an eyes, they became homeless and do not have food to eat. They feel worry 24 hours.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, I agree with you,when disaster occurs, the number one priority is to save life, therefore, a suitable shelter might be able to prevent further distress, illness or something much more worse to happen.

# data[].attributes.body
I am very interested and quite amazed by an architect by the name "Shigeru Ban". He have this idea of making shelters out of paper. And that, everyone, is not an easy thing to do. Who would have thought that something as brittle as paper can be made strong enough to be use as shelters? This is among the most economical way as I believe paper is not so expensive compared to other materials.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, that is correct. When disaster strikes, properties are damaged, lives are lost and peoples are injured. Therefore, in order to help the disaster victims, relief shelters are provided to them. However, finding providing help to the victims is not just an easy task. We have to consider what types of help that they need, how do we transport it to them and what materials that is not too costly in order to provide enough help to each and every victims.

Hi, based on what i know, emergency relief shelter is a shelter provided to those who get involve in some kind of disaster. It provide a temporary place for them to stay and to protect them from the element. If any of you does not agree with me please correct me.

# data[].attributes.body
Emergency mean unexpected and dangerous situations that must be dealt with immediately. Relief is a feeling of comfort when something frightening has ended. Meanwhile, shelter is a place to live, considered as one of the basic needs of life.
