《八八水災災後重建及預防專案WBS計畫書》的完成,非僅是紙上談兵窒礙難行的手冊,它充份運用專案管理的WBS實務運作技巧,並將災害預防、救治及重建相關法令及行政命令一一納入其中,不但化繁為簡、一目了然、邏輯清楚,更重要的它是易於全面執行與掌控的完整架構。計畫書完成後,該協會也提供各災後重建單位無償下載,將概念與作法散播至台灣各級單位以及鄉鎮。這其實是我歷年來一直想突破與實現的心願,沒想到這次卻能透過此一高層次的計畫達成了!這樣一個憾動人心的計畫,將是我永生難以忘懷的寶貴經驗,如果未來該協會再有公益作為,我必將參與並全力以赴。
近幾年來,台灣的氣溫、降雨、水文、地質等現象,都正發生巨變,一次次災害發生的危害,都不斷創下百年紀錄;研究顯示台灣更全球暖化成為第一批氣候難民,因此以國際、國家、中央與地方政府的共同力量因應各種可能的災害,已是台灣全島2,300萬人必須正視及積極面對的課題。而台灣國際專案管理師協會戮力完成的這本計畫書的完成,提供了台灣全島人民面對災害預防與救治既完整又專業的作業方針與深度思考,確實對台灣有高度的貢獻。以我個人是災民、是志工、是PMP的一份子,我在此強烈推薦他們參選2010年PMI社區貢獻獎,更期盼 貴會能給與ITPM最溫暖的肯定。
I am Li Jing-He, and, having survived both the 1999 Taiwanese earthquake and Typhoon Toraji, I am still working to rebuild not just my own life, but the life of my community, because of the devastation wrought by these natural disasters. The earthquake demolished my house, and, within 6 months, landslides buried the remains. I didn’t even have a needle and thread to my name! Everyone in our community was similarly affected, but it drew us all together. Since then we have strived to rebuild the local community, its environment and its economy. I became involved in reconstruction work, which has continued for over 10 years now. We are survivors fighting for our future – getting ourselves heard by the local government, guiding how they spend reconstruction money on our community. To help with my work, in 2001 I joined a project management course – and this is when I first met ITPM President Roger Chou. When in August of 2009 Typhoon Morakot devastated large parts of Taiwan, Roger Chou called for volunteer project managers to help plan disaster-relief and reconstruction operations, I readily volunteered so I could share my own experiences in helping Typhoon Morakot victims become survivors – who could re-build their communities.
My own volunteer work, mainly troubleshooting for reconstruction work resulting from the landslides caused by Typhoon Toraji, means I have to deal with 10 different local and national government departments and agencies. This work can be very depressing due to all the national and local government guidelines, rules, regulations and laws that can affect reconstruction work. It is my experience that effective reconstruction work can only take place if it has properly taken into consideration all these legal constraints. This demands hard work in making the plan comprehensive, ensuring all parts of the project support each other in the way they adhere to the law, and yet still takes into the consideration the overall goals you want to achieve with the reconstruction work.
Such comprehensive thought has gone into the “Morakot Flood Disaster Reconstruction and Preparation WBS Plan”. It makes complicated, comprehensive reconstruction work look straightforward. After this WBS plan was completed, the ITPM also made it available on the internet as a free download. Creating and making freely available such a plan is something I had always wanted to do, as I had never suspected a professional organization like ITPM would put the time and effort into doing such unprofitable, unglamorous work. This is a very smart and clever plan, and it has been an unforgettable experience helping create it. If ITPM ever needs to do more volunteer work, I won’t hesitate to help them again! In recent years, Taiwan’s weather has undergone dramatic changes. Damage done by storms and typhoons, earthquakes and tremors, are constantly breaking records. Research shows that Taiwan is now among the countries falling victim to the effects of global warming. The kind of challenges that faced my community, that faced the communities affected by Typhoon Morakot, are now potentially facing all 23 million residents of Taiwan. ITPM’s WBS plan is a step forward, providing the whole island with a comprehensive guide for coping with natural disasters. It is a great contribution to Taiwanese society.
As a victim, survivor and volunteer, as well as a certified project manager, I am grateful for the opportunity to strongly recommend ITPM for this year’s Community Advancement Award.
南投縣 李朝卿縣長 推薦函
我是南投縣長李朝卿。南投縣是台灣風景最秀麗的觀光大縣,也是台灣唯一一個不靠海的縣市,全球名聞遐邇的自然奇景玉山及日月潭就位在南投縣。有幸成為地靈人傑的南投縣首長,使縣政運作能妥適照顧縣民生命財產與回應縣民的需求,是我的使命。
2009年8月本縣、台灣中南部及東部受莫拉克颱風重創之後,ITPM協會周龍鴻理事長以其在專案管理師界無遠弗屆的影響力快速召集全國300位社會菁英,編製了一本《八八水災災後重建與預防WBS專案計畫書》。以地方首長的觀點檢視,其內容的細膩與嚴謹,足以成為全面性的最高指導原則,這本計畫書具一舉多得的綜效,在面對災難百廢待舉的衝擊下,尤其是在災難發生分秒必爭進行搶救之際,有這樣的一本Bible,有助於相關人等能鎮定、臨危不亂、很有秩序與成效作業活動,不論是時間、成本、風險管控、資源整合分配與內外部溝通,皆能發揮事半功倍的成效。據我所知,南投縣政府許多單位也都透過該協會網站下載該計畫書詳加研究。我代表南投縣全體人民衷心感謝這樣的一個規劃宏圖,衷心期待我們的家園社區重建之路能走得更長遠、更穩健。
感謝ITPM的義行,提供我們那麼專業又實用的資源,以提升縣政管理知識技能及災難管理,「公益善舉」是台灣最寶貴的能量與資產,因此對於能推薦ITPM參選PMI本年度之社區貢獻獎,我義無反顧,更期盼ITPM能成為另一個「台灣之光」,為台灣累積更多正向積極的能量。
This is Li Chau-Ching, Mayor of Nantou County, possibly the most picturesque – and definitely the only land-locked–County in Taiwan, possessing the world-renowned Jade Mountain and Sun Moon Lake. Having the pleasure of being Mayor of this scenic County comes with the duty of making sure our local government is run well, ensuring our tourism industry thrives and that all our citizens are well looked after.
In August 2009 Nantou County, together with other parts of central, eastern and southern Taiwan, was pounded by Typhoon Morakot, and then stricken by flooding following in its wake. The President of Institute of Taiwan Project Management (ITPM), Roger Chou, swiftly mobilized 300 project managers across the country to develop the “Morakot Flood Disaster Reconstruction and Preparation WBS Plan”. From a Mayor’s perspective, I could see that this plan was not only comprehensive, but also detailed in its guidance for reconstruction. For instance, the details of the plan carefully take into consideration the different local and national government laws, rules, guidelines and regulations that affect construction work. As a result if can be regarded as a ‘bible’ when reacting to disasters, allowing us those that use it to act quickly and effectively – when time and effort are at a premium. From my experience, especially with our flooding, I also believe that only calm, deliberate action can best deal with stressful, emergency situations. ITPM’s plan allows those using it to very calmly make prompt decisions that will quickly lead to effective actions. As far as I know, many government departments have downloaded this plan for study. I fully understand why, as I have seen how myself and the people of Nantou County have benefited from ITPM’s reconstruction plan.
Thanks to ITPM’s altruism, we have been provided with a professional and practical resource, which has already assisted us in many ways, improved the County’s government practices, and improved post-disaster reconstruction management nationally. Part of the Taiwanese people’s character is a strong altruistic, charitable impulse, and so I feel duty-bound to recommend ITPM for this year’s Community Advancement Award as an example of our national character, which will not only be another “glory of Taiwan”, but help lead Taiwan to a brighter future.
