The donation campaign was launched in response to calls by the Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee and the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha.
The Fatherland Front Central Committee's Ho Chi Minh City chapter reported that it received more than VND 9 billion and 2.4 tonnes of essential goods in donations for flood victims.
Of the sum, VND 3.7 billion were already handed to the victims in Quang Binh, Ha Tinh, Dak Lak, Lam Dong, Kon Tum and Tra Vinh provinces.
