On May 17, 2001, the Angolan government received more than $600,000 in aid from China, aimed to alleviate the sufferings of the 115,000 people displaced by the heavy floods earlier this year. Angolan Minister of Assistance and Social Reintegration Albino Malungo spoke at the handover ceremony. The aid included 100 tons of rice, 24,000 tins of beef and luncheon meat, cooking utensils, and other daily necessities, and was distributed in Bie Province.
