Government aid to build shelters for flood victims

The Prime Minister has decided to provide aid to 14 provinces and cities in the central region to build flood-proof houses for local residents.

Thousands of people in the designated localities are expected to benefit from the assistance policy, to be carried out from 2014 to 2016.
 
Accordingly, each household in flood-hit areas will receive VND12-16 million to build houses and shelters to prevent floods and storms.
In addition, the Bank for Social Policy will also grant preferential loans for poor families to help minimize risks and deal with aftermath of national calamities.
