These measures include flood mapping, river flood warning systems, television-based disaster information and warning systems, training at all government and grassroots levels on disaster preparedness, and reforestation of certain areas.

The Government of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar is committed to achieving universal health coverage (UHC) by 2030.
