Abstract
The importance of preparedness is emphasised in humanitarian relief logistics as it gets even more sophisticated. Pre-purchased relief items are stocked in pre-positioned warehouses around the world by various relief organisations which is commonly taken to improve their capacities to deliver sufficient relief aid within a relatively short time frame. This comment paper provides a better understanding about the humanitarian disaster management with the comparison between the commercial logistics. Furthermore, pre-positioned warehousing strategy is overviewed along with the global warehouse locations operated by international relief organisations.
