HONG KONG, Sept. 27 (Xinhua) -- The government of China's Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Thursday announced three grants totaling 15.721 million HK dollars (about 2.01 million U.S. dollars) for providing relief to flood victims in Kerala, India.

The move came after the government accepted the advice of the Disaster Relief Fund Advisory Committee.

The three grants, one of 6.508 million HK dollars to World Vision Hong Kong, one of 5.6 million HK dollars to Oxfam Hong Kong and one of 3.613 million HK dollars to CEDAR Fund, will be used to provide food, shelter kits, hygiene and household items to around 108,500 flood victims in Kerala.

The Committee hopes the grants will facilitate the provision of timely relief to the victims and help them restore their normal living, a government spokesman said.

To ensure that the money is used for designated purposes, the relief agencies will be asked to submit evaluation reports and audited accounts on the use of the grants after the relief projects are completed, the spokesman added. (1 U.S. dollar = 7.81 HK dollars)
