Helping the Flood Victims in Central Vietnam The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies on Wednesday made a worldwide appeal for $2.7 million in emergency money to help flood victims according to Reuters AlerNet. Six hurricanes have batterred the Central Vietnam region since August bringing about major floods. Meterologists estimated water levels were the highest in two decades in several central provinces. A government report said 61,500 houses were submerged in Quang Ngai province and Danang. Death toll in the region has risen to 332 people. (Source: Reuters)
Thay Thich Phap Chon (chairman of ICAN) went on a flood relief mission to Central Vietnam since early November. He was on the ground working with local Buddhist organizations to deliver much needed emergency supplies directly to victims in the region.
