European Commission for Humanity Operation (ECHO) will give Cambodia around 1 million Euro for the kingdom to conduct its Disaster Intervention Program (DIP) from 2007 to 2008, official news agency AKP reported on Friday.
The allocation is among the 7 million Euro fund of ECHO to be presented to Cambodia, Timor-Leste, Indonesia, Laos, the Philippines and Vietnam to implement DIP during the next 2 years, the agency quoted Toch Thearat, ASEAN's DIP-ECHO assistant, as saying.
Between 1998 and 2006, ECHO spent 3.9 million Euro for Cambodia to carry out its DIP.
The DIP aims to assist communities to prepare for famine and natural disasters, to enhance government's capacity in assessing impacts of disasters on development and poverty reduction programs, and to rehabilitate physical infrastructure for flood management.
