The Saudi government has provided the first phase of relief aid for flood and landslide victims in North Sumatra and Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam provinces, it was learnt on Monday.
Abdullah Aziz bin Abdul Husein who represented the Saudi government handed over the aid to secretary of the North Sumatra natural disaster mitigation task force Edi Aman Saragih recently.
The 70-ton aid, including medicines, tents, food and blankets was transported to the North Sumatra provincial capital of Medan using a cargo plane owned by the Saudi government.
The second phase of relief aid is expected to arrive on Jan 17. The aid was a manifestation of the Saudi government’s and people’s sympathy towards victims of natural disasters that hit several parts of Indonesia, Abdullah Aziz said.
Saragih, who represented North Sumatra Governor Rudolf M Pardede, meanwhile underscored the importance of the aid for the flood and landslide victims, saying it reflected close relations between the two countries and peoples. 9ant/mad)
