The Greater Manila Area (GMA), encompassing Metro Manila and the adjacent provinces of Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, Bulacan, and Pampanga, is one of the most exposed regions to natural hazards. With a population of about 27 million, accounting for more than 25 percent of the total country population, the Greater Manila Area is an important economic center producing nearly 40 percent of the country's GDP. While the government recognizes that transportation and logistics planning in times of disaster is important, such planning is still too often a neglected part of the government's management actions. In order to manage risks effectively, an understanding of the dynamics of the hazards and the logistics system in the Greater Manila Area is essential to allocate resources and formulating policies. The paper proposes strategic policy measures on logistics planning that the government can consider for mitigating the adverse impacts of disasters on economic zones in the Greater Manila Area.
