THE EUROPEAN Union (EU) on Thursday said it has allocated and delivered more than 2.83 million (P 160.69 million) worth of humanitarian assistance to the Philippines, where central and southern areas were devastated last week by typhoon Odette, internationally known as Rai. This initial assistance is on top of important contributions of the EU and its Member States to the emergency funds of multilateral humanitarian institutions that have responded to the needs created by the typhoon, it said in a statement. Some other Member States are redirecting funding or contributing to those institutions. The European block said its partner humanitarian organizations will also strengthen healthcare services, including hygiene promotion to mitigate the spread of waterborne diseases. Israel, through its envoys in the country, has also provided assistance, initially to the badly-hit provinces of Cebu and Bohol. Among the items delivered were solar energy systems, food packs, and hygiene kits. The solar panels will be useful for areas which dont have power supply yet.
