Preah Sihanouk province: His Excellency Mang Sineth, President of the Cambodian Red Cross Branch Committee in Preah Sihanouk province, on the afternoon of September 29, 2026, led a working group to deliver humanitarian aid from the provincial branch to 160 families affected by heavy rainfall flooding from Prey Nob commune and Tuol Totung commune, Prey Nob district, Preah Sihanouk province.
Mr. Yi Thearin, Governor of Prey Nob district, stated that 160 families had suffered damage to their homes, property, and livelihoods due to heavy rainfall flooding from September 22 to September 26, 2026.
The district governor confirmed that the forces of the district's Unity Command and local authorities always go down to educate and advise residents to increase their vigilance against natural disasters, especially for children and the elderly, and to prepare to intervene and assist residents in a timely manner when disasters occur.
On that occasion, His Excellency Mang Sineth praised the local authorities for always paying attention to the well-being and livelihoods of residents facing difficulties.
His Excellency also advised residents to increase their vigilance regarding electrical currents, maintain hygiene, and clean the environment around and inside their homes to prevent venomous animals and other dangerous creatures from entering their homes. After the floodwaters recede, residents must resume their livelihoods and increase cultivation to restore their family livelihoods.
For the humanitarian aid, each family received 25 kilograms of rice, canned fish, noodles, fish sauce, a mat, purified water, one household relief kit, along with 50,000 riel in cash.
This relief effort is a humanitarian activity that demonstrates care and helps ease the difficulties of residents affected by natural disasters, ensuring that those facing hardship do not confront their problems alone.
