Phnom Penh (VNA) - A working delegation of the Vietnamese Consulate General in Preah Sihanouk led by Consul General Vu Ngoc Ly travelled to Kampong Speu province on October 15 to present aid relief to Vietnamese-Cambodians hit by floods.

The assistance was in response to a call from the Khmer-Vietnam Association in the province for urgent support. 

Some 150 relief packages were presented to families of Vietnamese-Cambodians and Cambodians. 

Two dykes in Kampong Speu were damaged on October 13 and 14 due to torrential downpours, resulting in severe flooding.

No deaths have been reported, but the floods have turned the lives of hundreds of Vietnamese-Cambodians upside down. 

The Vietnamese Consulate General in Preah Sihanouk has called for additional support for the people of Kampong Speu. Donors can call (+855) 713078888 or 882248888 for more details./.
