The gifts included noodle, canned fish and milk, which were given by hand to the flood victims.
Mr. Lai Xuan Chien from the Vietnamese Embassy in Cambodia, Head of the delegation, affirmed that the Vietnamese Embassy always pays special attention to the living conditions of overseas Vietnamese in Cambodia and organized a fundraising campaign to support people in need.
Although the recent flooding caused huge property losses, the Vietnamese community recorded no casualties.
Over nearly two months, torrential rains in Cambodia’s provinces of Preah Sihanouk, Ratanakiri, Mondolkiri and Battambang, caused serious impacts on lives and livelihoods of people, forcing thousands of people to evacuate./.
