Abstract (English)
This study seeked to discover risk analysis and preparedness management plans that the government and fish cage operators incorporate in Taal Lake, Batangas given that this business area is prone to natural disasters. The data gathered from focus group discussion and interviews showed that local municipalities follow the same contingency plans which includes barangay level seminars, advisories, planning, evacuation assistance, monetary, and non-monetary subsidies. The fish cage operators follow the same contingency plans, although they have their strategies to sustain the business such as securing credit loans or checking the fish cages if they can still use it, bigger mitigations that seek to personalize their strategies are non-existent. The participants also mentioned that additional training and seminars and higher financial assistance could contribute greatly to their individual process of implementing risk management strategies to their sectors. With this, the researchers find out that the government should have stricter regulations like head counting, effectiveness in securing fish cages, and evacuation plans. Similarly, fish cage operators should invest on their knowledge especially when it comes to current trends in risk management in order for them to formulate mitigations that can also improve the quality of their operations before, during, and after natural disasters.
