Govt sends emergency supplies to flood-hit south
Officials and military personnel last week used aircraft and trucks supplied by the Lao People’s Army to deliver emergency supplies including drinking water, food, boats, tents and household essentials to six provinces devastated by floods.
Tropical depression Podul and other weather systems that have passed over southern and central Laos since the end of August unleashed torrential rain, causing widespread flooding in Khammuan, Savannakhet, Attapeu, Saravan, Champassak and Xekong provinces.
