Tokyo (VNA) – The Japanese Government on October 19 decided to provide emergency relief aid for Vietnamese flood-hit areas.

The assistance is to respond to the Vietnamese Government’s suggestions and in line with the close relationship between the two countries, according to a notice released by the Japanese Government.

The donations, including blankets, fresh water and canvases, will be channelled through the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
