Government is slow to respond because of all the hurdles and tape that have to be gone through. Just how it works. 72 hrs after a natural disaster is standard.
Local volunteers and organizations are always going to be able to mobilize before the government. Just the way it works! A lot goes into disaster relief and it takes time!
I agree the government is not very good at responding.
In my opinion, that is totally unacceptable. Maybe moving commodities and serving people should be taken away from the government and that money invested in organizations who are better at it.
