Abstract

Flood is the most frequent natural disaster occurring in Malaysia. It is often affected by the monsoon season between mid-October to the end of March which causes flooding. These floods happen every year especially at the east and west coast of Malaysia and causes massive casualty every year. There are 189 river basins in Malaysia, including Sabah and Sarawak (89 are in Peninsula Malaysia, 78 in Sabah, and 22 in Sarawak), with the main rivers going straight to the South China Sea, and 85 of them are prone to recurring floods. When this happens, the government aids the victim in term of food, logistic and safety. Majlis Keselamatan Negara (MKN) develops scalable plan that optimize all available asset and stock item to mitigate the harmful effects of flooding. MKN also enlist the community’s help by recruiting volunteers to help in the relief effort. Even with this method, the damage causes by these floods are increasing year by year. This paper try to address this issue by developing a mobile-based flood volunteer, asset, and stock management application. The application will be using Firebase, a Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) as its database. It will enable the staff to manage all the resources available to them efficiently.
