Japan announced a $1.5 million aid package to support Vietnam in emergency relief and early recovery from floods.

The support is being deployed through the International Migration Organization (IOM) and the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) in the context of Vietnam being heavily affected by tropical depressions, strong storms and prolonged floods, causing great damage to people and property, especially in the South Central and Central Highlands regions.

Of the total 1.5 million USD in aid, 1 million USD will be allocated to IOM Vietnam to provide essential non-food items to more than 32,000 people in Dak Lak, Gia Lai, Khanh Hoa and Lam Dong provinces.

The remaining 500,000 USD is deployed through UNICEF Vietnam, focusing on essential services such as clean water, personal hygiene and environmental sanitation, repairing sanitation works, improving lighting systems at schools and promoting safety for women and girls.

Speaking about the aid, Japanese Ambassador to Vietnam Ito Naoki emphasized that the Japanese Government wishes to promptly support localities most severely affected by natural disasters, contributing to reducing immediate difficulties for people, while promoting the early recovery process.

In the coming time, Japan will consider strengthening technical cooperation through the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), focusing on water resource management and infrastructure development to minimize future natural disaster risks.

2025 is considered one of the most severe natural disaster years in Vietnam, with 15 storms and many unusually large floods. Consecutive strong storms have caused floods on many river systems, leading to widespread landslides, forcing hundreds of thousands of people to evacuate.

This aid continues to affirm the strong cooperative relationship between Vietnam and Japan, while demonstrating the important role of international support in the recovery and reconstruction process after natural disasters in Vietnam.

Millions of arms turn to compatriots affected by storms and floods

Consecutive storms and floods caused by storms have caused many deaths, missing people, and injuries; many houses and production and business establishments have had their roofs blown off and suffered heavy damage. People across the Central and Northern mountainous provinces are struggling day and night to cope with floods and heavy losses in human lives and property that cannot be mentioned...

"A piece of food when hungry is worth a package when full", with the spirit of mutual love that has always been a beautiful image of the Vietnamese people, the Golden Heart Social Charity Fund calls on domestic and foreign philanthropists to join hands to share with people affected by floods to have food, clothing, shelter, students have books to go to school...

The Golden Heart Social Charity Fund would like to sincerely thank the precious feelings of agencies, businesses, and domestic and foreign philanthropists.
