Singapore promised $ 50,000 on Friday for sudden flood victims in Pakistan, reported the Associated Press of Pakistan (APP).
“The Singapore government will contribute $ 50,000 as a seed currency to support the efforts to collect public funds from the Red Cross of Singapore (SRC) to the humanitarian crisis, caused by floods in Pakistan,” said the Singapore foreign ministry in a statement.
The contribution of the Singapore government will complete the SRC’s commitment of $ 50,000 to meet the immediate needs of affected communities, he added. The Singapore Ministry of Foreign Affairs has also expressed the deepest condolences to the families of the victims of the floods.
The Pakistan Embassy in Singapore said in a statement that the contribution of the Singapore government reflected Singapore’s solidarity with the people of Pakistan during this difficult period. He will support continuous help and recovery efforts to help families and communities affected by floods, according to a press release from the Pakistan Embassy in Singapore.
The Singapore Red Cross launched its attraction for fundraising last week to support people in Pakistan affected by monsoon floods in mid-August. He also initiated $ 39,000 to support humanitarian efforts in Pakistan and the contribution of the Singapore government will complete this commitment.
Pakistan is currently struggling with devastating torrential rains and sudden floods that have made more than 900 lives, a submerged infrastructure and left thousands of homeless. In light of the worsening of the humanitarian crisis, foreign assistance commitments began to flock from the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries and international blocks.
