KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 28 (Bernama) -- Nippon Express Bangladesh Ltd (NX Bangladesh), a group company of Nippon Express Holdings Inc, has carried out a relief distribution programme to assist communities in eastern Bangladesh devastated by severe flooding caused by heavy rains since mid-August.
In a statement, NX Bangladesh said it has distributed food, medical supplies, and conducted other relief efforts in the six sub-districts of Feni District, one of the hardest-hit flood districts.
Four employees transported relief supplies to areas lacking clean water and food due to flooded roads. Together with the residents, they provided food, emergency medicines, oral rehydration solution, drinking water, and other supplies to approximately 100 households.
The floods, which affected over 5.8 million people, damaged infrastructure, including highways, railways, and disrupted communication networks, isolating more than one million people.
NX Bangladesh will continue helping to improve the lives of locals through various initiatives. The entire NX Group sincerely hopes that the disaster-stricken areas will recover and rebuild as soon as possible.
It remains committed to fulfilling its responsibility for social development by connecting people, companies, and communities.
