Abstract
The paper elucidates the objectives, methods and findings of a research project undertaken at Rajang River. The project was carried out with the intention to identify the hazards/disasters coping mechanism used by local communities. The bottom up coping mechanism was drafted and proposed to the relevant committee as three forms of relief protocols, namely for flood, fire and riverbank erosion. It is envisaged that the protocols will help to alleviate the situation faced by the riverine communities and to complement, and initiate improvement in government’s disaster management programs.
