One of the significant issues that has been realized in a disaster is a failure in coordination between various stakeholders. It cuts across inter-agency collaboration, sub-national actors, NGOs, private entities, and parishes. If there is role confusion and responsibilities or if the response is uncoordinated during the mitigation, response, recovery or disposition phase, then resources are late in arriving or are committed to the wrong thing in that critical period affecting both short-term operations and final outcome.
And if this is not well coordinated then other key activities such as early warning systems, resources mobilization, public communication etc. can also go wrong. Capacity also leads to gaps in training and preparedness and risk assessment in the establishment of disaster resistance. This calls for a credible framework of disaster management that promotes synergy, and information exchange among all stakeholders.

The connection among free enterprise and human way of behaving, especially childishness and avarice, is complicated and complex. Private ownership and the pursuit of profit are hallmarks of capitalism, which encourages competition and individual success and can encourage self-centeredness and avarice. The accentuation on private addition can now and again prompt focusing on benefits over moral contemplations, social government assistance, and mutual prosperity.
But capitalism also encourages creativity, hard work, and efficiency, which can lead to significant advancements in society and higher living standards. It gives people the freedom to pursue their objectives, which can result in charitable endeavors and socially responsible business practices. Positive contributions to society are made by many capitalists through investments in infrastructure, education, and social causes.
In the end, the system’s values and rules will determine whether capitalism makes us selfish and greedy. Capitalism has the ability to harness individual ambition for the benefit of the entire society if it has the right checks and balances in place, such as rules that encourage fair competition and social responsibility. The system may exacerbate inequality and unethical behavior if such measures are not implemented. Subsequently, free enterprise’s effect on human way of behaving isn’t deterministic yet molded by how the framework is organized and made due.
