A 2026 book from Indonesia's national disaster agency says every family should have a 72-hour emergency bag, because families may have to cope alone for the first 24 to 72 hours. We found no whole-home figure.

“Dalam banyak kasus, keluarga harus bertahan sendiri selama 24–72 jam pertama. [...] Karena itu, setiap keluarga seharusnya memiliki Tas Siaga 72 jam yang sudah dipersiapkan dengan baik.”

In many cases, families must cope alone for the first 24 to 72 hours. [...] For this reason, every family should have a well-prepared 72-hour emergency bag.
