Natural Disasters... Are we prepared to attend emergencies?

Which is the country that is best prepared to attend emergencies caused by natural disasters?

Considering that natural disasters are those natural events which cause several damages to the animals, plants, buildings, humans... physical, economic, and socially; I wonder if you answer me something: are you, your family or your country prepared to attend an emergency caused by natural disasters? 

Well I have two reasons to think that we are not ready to attend it: the first one is because we are humans, and the second one is because we cannot control the Natural Disasters, I mean we can't control our Mother Nature. But, being honest I thing there are some countries which are better prepared to attend emergencies caused by natural disasters than others. Let's see:

Have you ever listened about “The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse”? (Conquest, War, Famine/Pestilence/Drought/Mass Starvation, and Death). Examples of the devastation caused by such disasters abound in every region of the world: The recent triple disaster — earthquake, tsunami and nuclear meltdown — that hit Japan’s Tohoku region on 11 March 2011 has already claimed 12,000 lives, with a further 16,000 still missing. This is the worst catastrophe in Japan since the Hanshin Earthquake (known as the Kobe Earthquake outside of Japan) claimed over 6,000 lives in 1995.

Also, in recent years, major earthquakes in Haiti, Chile, New Zealand and China, unprecedented floods in Pakistan, a hurricane in Myanmar and the Indian Ocean tsunami of December 2004 have killed thousands or even hundreds of thousands. For those that survived, these natural disasters devastated their immediate communities and livelihoods, leading to catastrophic suffering, misery and humanitarian crises.  In addition to famine and drought, these recent natural disasters have left in their wake complex questions about the challenges of ensuring human security and realizing the right to health in emergencies.

  

So, if we want to know "Which is the country that is best prepared to attend emergencies caused by natural disasters?", we must think if, “Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing, and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.” As the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) said.

It means that the country which is better prepared than the other one should facilitate access to essential health facilities, goods and services in other countries, wherever possible and provide the necessary aid when required.
