India's Adani Group provides US$1 million to support Viet Nam's typhoon Yagi relief efforts

In his letter addressed to Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, on behalf of Adani Group, Gautam Adani sincerely extended his deepest condolences to all Vietnamese people, especially those who are facing severe consequences caused by typhoon Yagi and floods.

"We are extremely saddened to witness the huge loss of lives and properties due to the devastation of the typhoon as well as the difficulties many parts of northern Viet Nam suffering", he wrote.

For generations, the country and people of Viet Nam have always shown extraordinary strength and incredible determination in overcoming adversity. And in especially difficult times, it is extremely important to strengthen solidarity towards the people affected by the typhoon, he shared.

With the US$1 million-assistance package, Gautam Adani expressed his hope to make contribution to the common efforts of the entire people and provide necessary support for relief activities in typhoon-hit provinces and cities in northern Viet Nam and Vietnamese-Czech Friendship Hospital in Hai Phong City.

"We always stand ready to accompany and stand side by side with Vietnamese people to overcome this unprecedented historical natural disaster", he wrote.

It has damaged an estimated 141,469 homes, 550 health facilities, and 805 schools, while around 400,000 homes lack access to safe water. Approximately two million children have been left without access to education, psychosocial support, and school feeding programs./.
