In the wake of unprecedented flooding, the Vietnamese government has announced an emergency support package of VND 1,100 billion (about US$44–45 million) to help four severely affected provinces — Khánh Hòa, Lâm Đồng, Gia Lai, and Đắk Lắk — recover from the disaster.

Total estimated losses: 9,035 billion VND (~USD 380+ million).

Over 1,154 homes destroyed and more than 186,000 houses flooded at peak levels.
80,000+ hectares of crops damaged.
3.2 million livestock killed or washed away.
Major landslides and collapsed roads continue to block transportation routes in Đắk Lắk and Lâm Đồng.

These funds will be used for:

Repairing damaged homes
Restoring essential infrastructure
Evacuating and supporting affected households
Emergency food, medicine, clean water
Rebuilding agricultural production

Đắk Lắk has separately allocated 99.6 billion VND from its provincial budget for immediate relief and rebuilding efforts.

4. Current Challenges (as of Nov 23)

Despite government support, several urgent challenges remain:

⚠️ Road access blocked

Landslides continue to cut off many rural and highland communes, slowing rescue and supply delivery.

⚠️ Risk of secondary disasters

Continuous rain is increasing the risk of:

Further landslides
Dam overflow
Widespread livestock disease
Contaminated water sources

⚠️ Severe shortages reported

Local authorities confirm shortages of:

Clean drinking water
Food for remote households
Medicine and hygiene supplies
Temporary shelters
Farming tools and animal feed

5. Why International Support Matters Now

Although government aid has been activated rapidly, the scale of destruction is far beyond local capacity.

International donations play a crucial role in helping:

Elderly people, women, and children in isolated communities
Families who lost their homes completely
Ethnic minority groups in mountainous areas
Households whose crops and livestock — their only income — have been wiped out

Vietnam Local Adventures is currently coordinating with trusted local partners on the ground to ensure aid reaches the most vulnerable households first.
