Madagascar: Tropical Cyclone Felleng
Office of the Resident Coordinator Situation Report No 01
(as of 31 January 2012)
This report is produced by Office of the Resident Coordinator Madagascar in collaboration with humanitarian partners. It covers the period from
30 to 31 January 2012. The next report will be issued on or around 2 February 2013.
Highlights





Tropical Cyclone Felleng, which is passing down the
eastern coast of Madagascar, has caused much
rainfall since 30 January, but fortunately less than
initially feared.
So far no reports of significant damage have been
received, although the water levels in Nosy Varika
and north of Mananjary require vigilant monitoring.
Four people were killed when a house collapsed in
the capital Antananarivo; another died after being
swept away in flood waters in Maroantsetra on the
east coast.
The Malagasy Government, through the National
Office for Disaster Risk and Management (BNGRC),
together with the Malagasy Red Cross Society,
NGOs, United Nations Agencies and the private
sector, have activated the Platform for Humanitarian
Stakeholders (CRIC) and are already responding.
As the reported damage seems less severe than
anticipated, no aerial assessment will be conducted,
and the teams already dispatched to affected
districts will support data collection.





The Malagasy Government with its humanitarian partners - the Malagasy Red Cross Society, NGOs, the
United Nations and the private sector - have activated response coordination mechanisms, specifically the
Platform for Humanitarian Stakeholders (CRIC).
All Disaster Risk Management Committees are activated in the affected districts, including in the city of
Antananarivo, to coordinate evacuation and response.
The Humanitarian Country Team (HCT) met to agree on the nature of support to be provided to the
Government. Various clusters were held at national and local level to plan adequate responses.
Both coordination platforms (CRIC and HCT) decided that no aerial assessment will be undertaken. Staff and
supplies have already been pre-deployed in potentially affected regions (See maps attached).
