Sahana in the Philippines

without comments

Great news from the Philippines:

The National Disaster Coordination Council (NDCC), Philippines is the highest governmental body in Philippines responsible for advising the President of Philippines on the status of disaster preparedness program and disaster relief and rehabilitation efforts at the national level.

The implementation of Sahana is part of their Disaster Management Strategy for Philippines. You can find a customization of Sahana from the homepage at http://ndcc.gov.ph down on the left navigation under the section title “VDOCSAHANA”

This is a real coup for Sahana, and could point the way to success for other country deployments such as Indonesia.  Well done everybody, and hat tip to Chamindra.
