Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On January 31, 2010, China sent relief supplies to Mongolia in response to the 2010 dzud, or "severe winter", emergency. This batch of supplies included 500 tons of rice, and 180 tons of other relief supplies including food, portable power generators, and quilts arrived in Mongolia's capital Ulan Bator. The total cost of the aid was 10 million RMB, roughly 1.46 million USD. The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Financial Tracking Service lists the project as flow ID #74875.

Staff comments

The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Financial Tracking Service lists the project as flow ID #74875, and reports only 1 million USD as the total value of the donation. Most other sources report the 10 million RMB value. This issue warrants further investigation.
