Law 24/2007 as a framework for disaster management systems in Indonesia currently prioritizes the disaster mitigation paradigm so that a strong commitment and participation of all parties is needed to build and run this system properly. However, currently Indonesia is faced with multiple disasters that occurred during the Covid-19 pandemic.
