Abstract

Palu Bay is located in Central Sulawesi Province and is one of the active seismic bays in Indonesia which is crossed by the Palu-Koro fault segmentation. On September 28, 2018, an earthquake disaster occurred in this area accompanied by a tsunami and liquefaction. Palu City, Sigi Regency and Donggala Regency are areas that are severely affected by this disaster. Research in this region is to determine the level of preparedness of Small and Medium Industries in facing natural disasters in the future. The population of SMEs is 745 businesses/people with a probability sampling technique, namely Proportional Random Sampling. The assessment was carried out through a questionnaire involving 260 SME samples randomly selected in the three regions. The results of the study illustrate that the total preparedness of SMEs in the Palu Bay Area in facing natural disasters is 34.9% of respondents stated as "less prepared" to face natural disasters, 58.3% "somewhat prepared" and only 6.8% stated as "ready" while no respondents were "very prepared" to face natural disasters. The lack of preparedness of SMEs requires attention from all stakeholders, especially the Government through its program to improve disaster resilience for the community, especially Small and Medium Industry (SME) actors in this Region.
