SAKIGAKE JAPAN at the Vietnam-Japan Disaster Management Collaboration Dialogue
On May 13, 2025, SAKIGAKE JAPAN, a disaster prevention specialized company based in Chuo, Tokyo, participated in the 13th Vietnam-Japan Disaster Management Collaboration Dialogue held in Ha Nam Province, Vietnam. The event was co-hosted by Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and Vietnam's Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. It aimed to enhance disaster management frameworks in response to rising climate change risks. Given the devastating impact of Typhoon YAGI in 2024, the need for effective early warning systems and robust recovery mechanisms has never been more critical. SAKIGAKE JAPAN seized the opportunity to present advanced, sustainable disaster response technologies.
Innovative Technological Proposals
During the dialogue, SAKIGAKE JAPAN introduced several cutting-edge disaster prevention technologies and visions:
1.
SaaS-based Early Warning Platform: “Climate Vision” and “Water Vision”
This system, built on AI and cloud technology, visualizes disaster risks globally and provides high-resolution flood forecasts. Designed for intuitive use on smartphones and PCs, it enables local governments and rural residents to respond swiftly in emergencies.
2.
Autonomous Decentralized Infrastructure: “Cold Storage Box Portable” and “DIPPS Cloud”
-
Cold Storage Box Portable: A solar-powered portable refrigeration unit that ensures the preservation of pharmaceuticals and food in regions with unreliable power supply.
-
DIPPS Cloud: This solution includes buried sensors that constantly monitor soil moisture and slope changes, allowing for early detection of landslides and slope collapses.
These technologies are characterized by their independent operational capability, eliminating reliance on centralized infrastructure. This autonomy is crucial for disaster response in mountainous or island areas that are difficult to access.
Exhibition Highlights
At the exhibition booth, SAKIGAKE JAPAN showcased several products and technologies, gaining significant interest and acclaim from local government officials, international organizations, and engineers:
- - Climate Vision / Water Vision: Visualization and notification of disaster risks
- - DIPPS Cloud: Ground monitoring sensors paired with a cloud dashboard
- - Aster Power Coating: A specialized coating with high seismic resistance
- - Cold Storage Box Portable: A solar-operated cold storage unit with over 7 hours of cooling capacity.
Visitors expressed positive feedback, noting the reliability of solutions that work even in areas lacking developed power infrastructure, and the practical convergence of agriculture and disaster prevention approaches.
Business of Disaster Prevention
A key focus of this collaboration dialogue was SAKIGAKE JAPAN’s proposal for a sustainable disaster prevention business model. This approach goes beyond merely providing products:
- - Emphasizing self-sustaining operational designs for local governments and schools
- - Building technological partnerships and supply chains with local businesses
- - Promoting local consumption of maintenance costs
By establishing disaster prevention as an integral part of local systems, the company seeks long-term solutions to ongoing challenges. In collaboration with Vietnam this year, the first sand control dam was completed, underlining the need for simultaneous development of disaster infrastructure alongside the sharing of information and human resource capacity building.
Future Prospects
SAKIGAKE JAPAN will focus on building adaptable local models through pilot implementations and demonstrations in collaboration with universities, municipalities, and businesses throughout Vietnam. This initiative is positioned as a stepping stone toward deploying disaster prevention technologies across the Southeast Asian region.
Disaster prevention is not only about saving lives; it also encompasses protecting livelihoods, industries, and education. Achieving a resilient society necessitates a deep understanding of local cultures and characteristics, and collaboratively creating suitable technologies, education, and systems. SAKIGAKE JAPAN is committed to the social implementation of disaster prevention technology. It continues to face global disaster risk management challenges while strengthening its cooperation with Vietnam.
