Supporting households affected by natural disasters
VTV.vn - Nearly 5,600 households in 19 North West, Central, and Mekong provinces have lost their homes and property due to floods, landslides, and beach erosion.

They are in urgent need of financial support to rebuild their houses, said Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc at a meeting with local leaders this morning. 40 million USD has been granted from the State budget to support these people in this time of necessity. Provinces have been provided with subsidies to build water, electricity, and supply facilities.

A resolution to support local residents to resettle their lives requests local leaders of the 19 affected provinces to deploy emergency assistance to households in terms of transportation, resuming production, healthcare treatment, and education for the children.
