8. How the effect of Humanitarian Logistic in misfortune alleviation activities?
Plays an integral role
First contributes immensely to mitigating the negative impact of natural disasters
in terms of loss of life and economic costs.
Losses of buildings, highways and other infrastructure.
Losses in employment and tax receipts.
Losses due to the increase in the price of consumable and construction
materials.
Losses of millions of lives because of the scarcity of food and accidents.
Second, it is considered the repository of data that can be analyzed to provide
post-event learning.
Data reflects all aspects, from the effectiveness of suppliers and transportation
providers, to the cost and timeliness of response, to the appropriateness of
donated goods and the management of information.
Thus, it is critical to the performance of both current and future operations and
programs. Organizing emergency response plans will help preparation and
consequently mobilization in times of disasters.

The current state of humanitarian logistics research
• Zhang, Zhou, and Nunamaker developed a framework to support decision
makers during humanitarian relief operations.
• Their model includes three phases:
• preparation, immediate response, and reconstruction.
• Each of the phases is linked to a regional (i.e. operational) and extra-regional
(i.e. strategic) view.
• The regional views are disaster prevention and risk management, crisis
management, and continuity planning.
• The corresponding extra-regional views are strategic planning, short-term
project management, and long-term project management

14. CONCLUSION
The 2004 incidents has taught Kerala to be better prepared in the future.
Systematic failures in humanitarian logistics can be resolved if there is
effective leadership and appropriate level of supports and funding as Kerala
have the technology, financial, administrative and military resources. The
lesson that learns by Kerala from the 2004 incidents also a lesson to the
world that anything can happen in a blink of an eye. It is just a matter of
preparedness.
From the analysis of all the data, it can be concluded that the humanitarian
logistics process still remains an operation that need to be studied and
improved day by day. It’s also a very important research field that required
attention and support from people, organization and government.
Humanitarian logistics have the opportunity to increase its contribution to
the disaster relief by improving the areas of knowledge management,
technology, measurement, community and voice.
