Project narrative
On November 13, 2013, the Chinese Government donated USD $100,000 in emergency relief assistance to the Philippines for victims of Typhoon Haiyan, also known as Typhoon Yolanda. The Red Cross Society of China also donated $100,000 to the Philippines Red Cross Society. The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Financial Tracking Service tracks these two flows together in flow ID #110500. This project is also linked to Record ID#38098, a 10 million yuan donation worth of relief supplies from the Chinese government; and Record ID#63918, aid worth 3.2M RMB from China Soong Ching Ling Foundation.
Staff comments
While the UN OCHA source records this project status as commitment, the Chinese Embassy source records the grant as having been delivered as of the end of November 2013, so AidData records the project status as completion.
