Thailand flood assistance
2011-11-21
At the end of July 2011, Thailand was struck with the most severe flood in 50 years. The flooding tormented Thailand for four months, which seriously impacted the Thailand society, its people and the Taiwanese businessmen in Thailand. To express our humanitarian spirit, TaiwanIHA cooperated with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the foreign aid mission, “Send love to Menam”. TaiwanIHA, Taipei Hospital, and the Taiwan Centers for Disease Control (Taiwan CDC) prepared 6000 home emergency kits and provided disease prevention brochures to Thailand on November 21st and December 20th 2011. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs shipped the goods to Thailand, which was distributed by the local Taiwanese businessmen and organizations.
