Effect of information sharing and capacity adjustment on healthcare service supply chain: the case of flood disaster
In recent years, flood has becoming disastrous events in Malaysia causing loss of lives and properties. The damages brought by flood is partly due to lack of appropriate preparedness and effective responses toward such events. Several researchers have reported studies on flood preparedness and res...
