Viet Nam: Saigon Co.op shares difficulties with storm-hit people

The distribution center of the HCM City Union of Trading Co-operatives (Saigon Co.op) prepared an amount of goods worth billions of dong to supply for storm-hit people in HCM City and provinces.

Earlier on November 17, Saigon Co.op sent mobile vehicles to sell necessary goods such as instant noodles, sugar and milk, for people in HCM City's outlying district of Can Gio.

On the same day, the union donated 10,000 packs of instant noodle and gifts for the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee in HCM City to present people in Can Gio's Thanh An Islet who were moved to Can Thanh Town to avoid Storm No. 10.
