Deputy Prime Minister Truong Hoa Binh has urged the central province of Quang Tri, which has been hardest hit by recent floods and storms, to focus all resources to protect the lives and assets of locals and help them soon stabilise their life.
Fund-raising programmes to support flood victims in the central region were launched by the Vietnamese embassies in Russia, Singapore, the Republic of Korea (RoK) and Germany.
Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has decided to temporarily allocate 500 billion VND (over 23 million USD) from the central budget’s reserves of 2020 to support five central provinces of Quang Binh, Quang Tri, Thua Thien – Hue, Quang Nam, and Ha Tinh in carrying out rescue tasks, social security work and overcoming consequences of floods.
