Over the course of the aftermath of TC MOCHA, significant damages have been reported to be mainly sustained by houses and infrastructures. In response to the series of rapid intensifications and predicted severe damages by the cyclone, pre-emptive evacuation was conducted. As a testament to its intensity and nature, cyclone-associated severe winds and rainfall resulted in widespread damages and flooding and internal displacement of a significant number of populations from areas along its path and areas hundreds of kilometres away. Latest confirmed casualties and loss are below the hundreds but are expected to increase as communication lines are fully restored. Damage and loss data have steadily increased with estimated costs reaching more than a million US Dollars according to authorities. PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE: a. As mentioned in the statement of the ASEAN Foreign Minister on the impact of TC MOCHA on Myanmar, ASEAN Member States stand ready to support disaster relief efforts and delivery of humanitarian assistance, including the deployment of the ASEAN-Emergency Response and Assessment Team (ASEAN-ERAT). The ASEAN Foreign Ministers also encourage Myanmar to activate the role of the Secretary-General as the ASEAN Humanitarian Assistance Coordinator (SG-AHAC) to ensure the overall objective of effective and timely response to the disaster’s impact is achieved, with the assistance of the AHA Centre. b. A total of 17 townships in Rakhine State and 4 townships in Chin State have been declared by the Government of Myanmar as Natural Disaster-affected areas due to Tropical Cyclone MOCHA..."
