There were numerous economic effects from Cyclone Tracy. They included:Huge loss of homes - the city had to be virtually rebuilt from scratch. There were enormous costs involved in rebuilding infrastructure and damaged buildings.Reduced income for businesses affected by damage resulting from the cyclone.Local businesses had building damage and lost some of their produce. This drove up prices of goods and supplies because they had to be brought in from further away, so the businesses had to pay more for transportation costs.Many residents moved away permanently, never to return.Many businesses closed down permanently, leading to unemployment.Many organisations helped with the disaster, these included: National Disasters Organisation, Darwin's Emergency Service, RAAF, Qantas, TAA, Ansett Airways, RAF, RNZAF, US Airforce and Darwin's Reconstruction Committee. Medical teams helped with the sick and $250 million dollars was donated to Darwin for reconstruction. Other parts of Australia donated money, food, clothing, building materials, blankets and medical supplies.
Disaster management is caused by major disasters effecting cities or countries. Usually these disasters are natural like hurricanes, earthquakes etc and disaster management enables a country to be ready and better able to respond when they occur.
They cause economic decline as countries have to spend billions of dollars rebuilding and recovering from the damage. Stock markets respond to the disaster with downturns and investments in new industries are diverted to recovery. Millions of people can be homeless without food, clean water, proper sewage disposal and without electricity. Jobs are destroyed along with the businesses. People can not work even if there were jobs since they likely can't get to work without public transit, without clothing, with no personal possessions left. There are little, if any, means of communication immediately following the tsunami. Factories and jobs are eliminated and many never rebuild in the area again. Tourist industries collapse for even years afterward.
Many countries depend on China for its electrical equipment exports etc. which means when there is a natural disaster or something happens in their economy those countries depending on it will be affected.
