The Disaster Management Unit (DMU) of the Office of the United Nations Resident Coordinator reports that the rapid rise of the water level of several rivers in the north, the centre and the south of Viet Nam, has caused serious flooding in the four Provinces of Binh Thuan, Lam Dong, Dac Lac and Dong Nai. The DMU reports that 35 people were either killed or are missing. In the four provinces, 8,464 houses have either been inundated, damaged or destroyed. About 24,000 hectares of farmland has been inundated (rice, paddy, sugar cane, maize). According to the Vietnamese News Agency, famine and epidemic diseases are likely to occur in Bin Thuan, the most affected Province. Many households have had no access to fresh water since July 30 when the local water supply system and electricity grid were completely destroyed. All wells in Tanh Linh and Duc Linh districts have been contaminated. The estimated total economic losses in all four provinces amount to more than USD 14 million. ([OCHA, 4 Aug 1999](https://reliefweb.int/node/50442)) On 12 August 1999, the Disaster Management Unit (DMU) of the Office of the United Nations Resident Coordinator provided an overview about the general situation, the impact and the initial national response in the four flood-affected provinces of Binh Thuan, Lam Dong, Dac Lac and Dong Nai. According to the report, 40 people were killed, 1,658 houses were destroyed and 21,377 houses have been damaged. About 20,000 hectares of paddy and crops were destroyed and 30,000 hectares have been inundated. Fisheries have also suffered substantial damage. Total losses in the sector of agriculture and fisheries amount to VND 101.7 billion (approx. USD 7.31 million). Landslides and floods have seriously affected the water distribution system. 97 bridges have either been destroyed or damaged and 28 small hydraulic power stations have been damaged. The estimated total economic losses in all four provinces amount to more than USD 19 million. ([OCHA, 13 Aug 1999](https://reliefweb.int/node/50946))

The Office of the United Nations Resident Coordinator in New Delhi reports that the current monsoon is causing significant damage in the States of Assam, Bihar, Kerala, Tripura and West Bengal. In total, 69 people were killed, 3,212 villages in 35 districts have been affected and 15,058 houses have suffered damage. Flood waters from almost all the major rivers in North Bihar have inundated large areas. About 10 million people belonging to 10 districts of North Bihar have been severely affected by the flooding caused by breaches in different embankments. The water levels of the Ganga River and other major rivers of North Bihar are on the rise and if the trend continues, it could pose a threat to some cities/towns such as Patna, Buxar, Bhagalpur and Munger. The flood situation in Kerala continued to be serious. Around 300 to 400 houses were damaged. With the south-west monsoon continuing to be strong, several low-lying areas were inundated by flood waters. As many as 8,272 families have been housed in 277 relief camps in various parts of the state. The Brahmaputra River and its major tributaries continues to flow above danger level in different parts of Assam. According to official sources, the Brahmaputra River has risen above the danger level at Dibrugarh, Golokganj, Neematighat, Tezpur and Dhubri while its tributaries, the Sankosh and the Beki, have flooded new areas. ([OCHA, 21 Jul 1999](https://reliefweb.int/node/49942)) The Office of the United Nations Resident Coordinator in New Delhi reports that in the States of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Bihar, Gujarat, Karnataka, Kerala, Punjab, Tripura and West Bengal, sizeable flood-related damages have been reported. In total, some 5.5 million people of 6,350 villages in 77 districts have been affected and 29,535 houses suffered damage. 325 deaths have been reported. The flood situation in the state of Bihar has worsened with the flood waters of almost all the major rivers in North Bihar inundating large areas. Flood waters have entered over 2,504 villages of 21 districts. The flood situation in Karnataka continues to be serious. The Government has evacuated more than 2,000 people from low-lying areas and set up relief camps and other facilities to provide essential items to the affected population.

As a result of torrential rains on 7-8 July 1999, three districts in Tajikistan have experienced severe flooding and landslides. The districts are: Ashd and Aini in the Leninabad region, and Jirgatal in the Karategin Valley. Of the three, Ashd is the most severely affected with at least two villages reportedly destroyed. United Nations Resident Coordinator in Tajikistan reports that the Tajik Ministry of Emergencies has conducted an assessment of the situation in Ashd and reports that 18 people have been killed, at least 50 are missing and 23 are injured. The Ministry also reports that 167 houses have been destroyed and that an additional 209 are damaged. In Jirgatal, five people are reported dead. Information on Aini is still pending. ([OCHA, 9 Jul 1999](https://reliefweb.int/node/49395)) Torrential rains from 6 to 12 July 1999 produced severe flooding, landslides and the wash out of fortifying dams of river banks in northern and central Tajikistan. Hundreds of houses, educational and health establishments, hundred kilometres of roads, tens of bridges, power transmission lines, irrigation systems and canals, and other important economic objects were destroyed, mostly in the mountainous and foothill districts in the rural areas of the Republic (Ashd and Aini districts in Leninabad region and Faizabad, Gharm, Ghissar, Jirgatal, Kofarnihon, Leninsky, Tavildara and Varzob districts). The most affected are Ashd and Aini districts in Leninabad region and Jirgatal district in the Karategin valley. According to the latest information provided by the Tajik Ministry of Emergencies, the impact of the floods in the Ashd district is as follows: 18 people have been killed, with only 14 bodies retrieved; 10 people are missing and 23 injured; 316 houses are totally destroyed and 412 damaged leaving correspondingly 1,360 and 2,151 people without shelter, of which 413 people need to be resettled. ([OCHA, 15 Jul 1999](https://reliefweb.int/node/49700)) The Office of the UN Resident Coordinator in Dushanbe reports that the most seriously affected zone is the Asht District in the Leninabad Region. The heaviest loss in human lives occurred in this area with 20 people killed and two still missing. In addition to extensive damage to the existing infrastructure, more than 3, 800 people are without adequate shelter. The agricultural sector is also hard-hit, undermining the livelihoods and food security of hundreds of families. Although humanitarian agencies have already provided significant assistance, local authorities have indicated that more is urgently required. Of the other affected areas, the most serious emergency needs are in Gharm District, where approximately 1,000 people are without adequate shelter. In Jirgital, approximately 700 people require shelter while in Darvaz District in Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Oblast, approximately 90 people are without adequate homes. Assessments are continuing in the Gharm District and new needs may be reported shortly. Support to the agricultural sector is required in both Kholkhozabad and Jirgital Districts, where thousands of hectares have been destroyed or damaged.

The United Nations Resident Coordinator in Colombo reported that 200,000 people were left homeless following torrential rains continuing since 19 April in the Western and Southern administrative districts of Colombo, Gampaha, Kalutara, Galle and Matara on 19 April. Six persons were reportedly killed. ([OCHA, 26 Apr 1999](https://reliefweb.int/node/46156)) Unusually heavy rains for this time of year and violent thunderstorms along the western and south-western coast of Sri Lanka between 16 and 21 April caused widespread damage and severe floods in the south-west and south of the country. The main rivers, Kelani and Kalu, rose by over seven feet, and caused additional flooding, made worse by slow run-off. Some of the worst areas received as much as 290 mm of rain in 24 hours, and even the capital, Colombo, where 284 mm fell within 24 hours, experienced bad flooding in many sectors of the city. The worst affected districts are Ratnapura, Colombo, Kalutara, Gampaha, Galle, Kandy, Matara and Kegalle, all located between the coast and the Kandyan highlands. Six persons were reported killed by lightning, landslides or floods. Thousands of houses were damaged or destroyed, and initial official figures place the number of homeless at around 75,000 families. [...] In Colombo alone an estimated 12,400 families were affected. The damage is reportedly much worse in the rural areas particularly in Ratnapura District. ([IFRC, 29 Apr 1999](https://reliefweb.int/node/46380))

Torrential rain since February 4 has claimed 23 lives and have left half a million people homeless. The heavy rains caused serious flooding in four major provinces in the Southern island of Mindanao. Flood waters in some places rose to over 10 feet, cutting off major centres and towns. Landslides and collapsed bridges have compounded the disaster. The government has declared a state of emergency, blaming indiscriminate logging and loss of forest cover as a main factor in causing the flood. The worst affected provinces are: Agusan del Norte, Agusan del Sur, Surigao del Norte and Surigao del Sur. All the 14 towns of Agusan del Sur are under water, displacing over 170,000 people. The National Disaster Co-ordinating Council estimates the total damage at USD 3.2 million. ([IFRC, 10 Feb 1999](https://reliefweb.int/node/4006519)) The United Nations Resident Coordinator in Manila reported that, according to a Progress Report issued by the National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) on 25 February, flash floods occurred along the Lampan river on 21 February. The floods were caused by continuous rains in the province of Lanao del Norte in Mindanao. 575 families, or 2,609 persons, were affected in the towns of Kauswagan, Linamon and Bacolod. The floods left a death toll of 13 people, with 21 people missing and 79 injured. In addition, 203 houses were totally destroyed and 167 were partially damaged.

According to the United Nations Resident Coordinator in Colombo, the northeast monsoon brought heavy rains in the eastern part of Sri Lanka with the dawn of the New Year. 29,288 families in seven administrative districts, namely Trincomalee, Vavuniya, Batticaloa, Polonnaruwa, Ampara, Badulla and Mannar, were affected by heavy floods. Two deaths had been reported to the Ministry of Social Services (MSS), the lead agency of the Government, which has been providing relief to the affected people. A larger number of people have been reportedly affected in Mulaitivu district. IFRC reported that damage to paddy fields was thought to be significant and that the traditional irrigation system of tanks and reservoirs (approximately 20,000 throughout the island) had been damaged by the floods in certain areas. Adverse weather conditions were also reported from Matale, an area in the central hills of Sri Lanka. On 4 January, strong winds with heavy rainfall caused damage to a number of homes and telecommunication facilities. Two deaths due to fallen trees were reported. A similar incident of strong winds had been reported in Ratnapura, the southern part of the hills. ([OCHA, 11 Jan 1999](https://reliefweb.int/node/42709)) The heavy and late arrival of monsoon rains at the end of December, 1998 and in early January, 1999 caused serious flooding in seven states of the country, mainly located in lowland areas and along the coastal belt. Close to 31,000 families (approximately 155,000 people) were reportedly affected. Some 15,000 families were initially displaced. As the waters receded they returned to their homes where many found that few belongings remained and houses were damaged or destroyed. [...] In the districts of Batticaloa, Trincomalee and Vavuniya alone, more than 18,500 acres of paddy were lost. A second crop is expected in some locations as early as April and as late as September. In order to survive over the coming lean months, most of the affected people will depend on humanitarian assistance to supplement the meagre income generated from daily labour.

The UNDP Office in Hanoi informed that heavy rains and floods in the coastal provinces of central Vietnam in mid-October caused significant damage in the provinces of Binh Dinh, Kahanh Hoa, Quang Ngai, Phu Yen and Ninh Thuan. Until mid-August, the region had been suffering from a severe drought. According to the official reports issued by affected provinces to the Standing Office of the Central Committee for Flood and Storm Control (CCFSC) on 26 October 1998, 42 people were killed, 3 were missing and 5 were injured or ill. 294 houses collapsed, 5,724 houses were flooded and 482 houses damaged. More than 11,000 hectares of paddy rice were destroyed. According to news reports, the Government reported on 2 November that the death toll from floods in central Vietnam rose to 52, out of which 17 people had been killed in Binh Dinh province, 14 in Khanh Hoa, 12 in Quang Ngai, 4 in Phu Yen and 5 in Ninh Thuan. The damage has been estimated at VND 191 billion (USD 13.7 million). ([OCHA, 6 Nov 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/41020)) According to the latest update issued by the Standing Office of the Central Committee for Flood and Storm Control (CCFSC), Typhoon Dawn and other tropical storms which hit the central provinces from 11 to 26 November caused extensive flooding and damage as follows (as of 28 November 1998): People killed: 267, People missing: 16, People injured: 92, Houses collapsed: 9,821, Houses flooded/damaged: 470,176, Schools collapsed: 143, Schools flooded/damaged: 1,484, Paddy flooded/damaged: 81,224 ha, Other crops flooded/damaged: 33,708 ha. The economic loss is estimated at VND 1,295 billion (USD 93 million). The flood is reported to be the worst flood since 1975, similar to the historical (record) flood of 1964. According to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), some 2.4 million people have been directly affected by the disaster in the following 15 provinces: Quang Binh, Quang Tri, Thua Thien Hue, Quang Nam, Da Nang, Quang Ngai, Binh Dinh, Phu Yen, Khanh Hoa, Ninh Thuan, Binh Thuan, Dac Lac, Kon Tum, Lam Dong and Gia Lai. Some of the provinces are the poorest in the country, and the populations are largely reliant on subsistence agriculture and aquaculture. The damage to crops, infrastructure (including transportation system, bridges, schools, aquaculture, boats, stocks) and private property will seriously affect the living conditions of local residents in 1999.

According to the media, extensive floods triggered by back-to-back typhoons have affected a wide area on the main island of Luzon, Philippines. The floods were caused by four days of heavy rain induced by Typhoon Todd and Storm Vicki which hit the northern provinces of Luzon and parts of the central Visayas island. [...] The National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) of the Philippines reported through the United Nations Resident Coordinator in Manila that massive flooding, brought about by rising waters in the low-lying areas, caused the death of 27 persons, the evacuation of 13,446 families or 70,512 persons and affected 144,789 families or 707,737 persons in the Cordillera Autonomous Region, Northern and Central Luzon and the National Capital Region. Nine hundred seventy (970) barangays of 104 municipalities in 16 provinces have been inundated. As a result of the storms, M/V Princess of the Orient sank on 18 September. Out of a total of 454 passengers and crew members, 311 were rescued while reportedly 39 died. On 21 September the media reported that the floods have ravaged a total of about 18,000 hectares of rice lands. To date, the local Disaster Coordinating Councils in the affected regions are still in the process of assessing the estimated cost of damage to properties.

The UN Resident Coordinator in New Delhi reports that a massive landslide, triggered by incessant rains, wiped out Malpa village in Pithoragarh district of Uttar Pradesh on 18 August 1998. At least 180 people, including 60 Kailash-Mansarovar pilgrims and eight Indo-Tibet Border Police personnel were feared killed. The pilgrims were staying in a camp when the landslide occurred between Zipti and Sia lake in Kumaon hills, at around 3 a.m. Among those believed killed were 14 women pilgrims and six employees of the Kumaon Mandal Vikas Nigam which organises the annual pilgrimage. The Defence Ministry has despatched helicopters to locate the missing and airlift the injured and the dead. Over 300 people, including 150 pilgrims, stranded at various points on their way to Mansarovar, are likely to be airlifted back to the plains following the disaster, according to official sources. The Control Rooms have been set up in Pithoragarh for monitoring relief and rescue work, and in Delhi, for providing information. Further landslides have reportedly caused more deaths in the region. ([OCHA, 20 Aug 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/38930)) The United Nations Resident Coordinator in New Delhi, reports that the water level of some rivers in the Assam State is now receding and the flood situation is improving, with exception of the Salmara Mankachar sub-Division, in the Dhubri district, where the situation is still critical. Road and rail communications with the rest of the country are still cut off. In the Uttar Pradesh State, river Ghaghra was flowing 30 cms above danger level. According to the Ministry of Agriculture of India, as of 15 September 1998, floods affected approximately seven million hectares of land, of which some 3.3 million hectares of crops. As of 16 September 1998, approximately 36 million people have been affected, and about 3,000 people have been killed. Floods also affected seriously the housing sector, with about 852,000 houses partially/totally damaged. Some 74,000 animals have also been killed as a result of the floods.

The onset of the monsoon in June triggered flash floods in the north and in July torrential rains brought further floods in south-eastern districts, causing widespread damage. The situation worsened from mid-July onwards as continuous rainfall in the great river catchment areas outside Bangladesh led to sharp rises in the water levels in most of the rivers flowing into the Jamuna (Brahmaputra), Meghna, and Padma (Ganges) basins. Crop lands, human habitats, roads, and even railway lines were inundated in district after district. Millions have been rendered homeless. Low-lying areas of Dhaka are under water and scores of villages along river banks have been engulfed by the floods. ([IFRC, 17 Aug 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/38804)) The damage caused by the unusually prolonged floods was very extensive. Currently, the number of districts affected stands at 45 (out of a total of 64). The number of people affected by the floods is estimated at over 24 million, with 360 deaths reported due to drowning, snake bites and diseases. WHO has reported a widespread outbreak of water-borne diseases. Scores of villages along the riverbanks of the three major basins of Brahmaputra, Meghna and Padma and their tributaries have been engulfed by the floods. 353,000 houses have reportedly been destroyed, and 1.2 million damaged. The floods have also caused widespread damage to agriculture, spread over an area of 800,000 hectares of crops, and infrastructure, with 9,160 km of roads damaged, over 6,500 bridges and culverts washed away and 1,800 schools being affected, according to the Central Control Room of the Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief.

As a result of torrential rains during the last days, the oblasttar (= administrative divisions; sing.: oblast) of Jalal-Abad and Osh in the western/south-western parts of the Kyrgyz Republic were heavily affected by floods. Due to the flooding a dam at the Kugart river broke and flooded the adjacent area. According to the updated disaster assessment one person has been killed, some 1,250 houses, 40 offices and about 60 kilometers of power supply lines, roads and irrigation canals have been destroyed. Overall some 10,000 people have been affected. ([OCHA, 20 May 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/37320)) Severe and widespread flooding hit the Suzak rayon of Jalal-Abad, Kyrgyz Republic, caused by torrential rains starting on 18 May 1998. The situation was made worse by a broken dam on the Kugart river. As of 22 May 1998, the water was receding, the broken dam was repaired and 8,760 victims of the floods resettled. ([OCHA, 26 May 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/37369)) On 19 May 1998, as a result of the torrential rains that hit Jalal-Abad and Osh Oblasts of the Kyrgyz Republic, the level of the Kugart river rose dramatically, broke a 100 meter-wide dam and flooded a large territory. The floods claimed one human life and caused about 7,728 people to abandon their homes. In Suzak village alone some 1,170 houses, 40 offices, 4 two-story buildings and 45 km of power transmission lines were destroyed. One bridge was demolished and 40 km of the road between Jalal-Abad and Karasuu was damaged. Reported damage in other areas included 15 km of damaged water supply network and some 1,204 hectares of flooded land. The Government mobilized all internal available resources to meet the need of the affected population. ([OCHA, 2 Jul 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/37837))

Torrential rains have caused widespread destruction throughout Tajikistan. Rain began on 23 April and quickly wreaked havoc, destroying property, houses, infrastructures and crops. On 30 April , the government of Tajikistan requested assistance from the UN in mobilizing the international community to support national relief efforts. The Gharm district was affected by major landslides on 26 April . The town of Navdi suffered the most in terms of casualties and damage. Preliminary reports indicate 50 dead, 12 missing, 141 families homeless. 60 houses completely destroyed and 100 damaged. Other towns affected are Aini, Sakhrinav, Varzob and Konsomlobad. [...] Following government reports, agencies have visited the district, focusing on Kulyab area. Initial assessments indicate that 2,000 people are affected, 36 houses have been destroyed and 500 flood-damaged. Infrastructural damage include 7 bridges, Kulyab town sewage system, 20 electric pylons and a dam connected to water purification installations is near to collapse. 1,500 hectares of agricultural land have been flooded. Only one death has been reported in Kulyab. 400 people have been temporarily housed in public buildings or have been hosted by relatives. Further assessment is being conducted by UNOPS, Merlin and mission OST. Merlin reported that 4 boreholes which supply Kulyab town (100,000 people) are now contaminated with flood water and the river which supplies the southern towns of Moskovski and Pianj is also contaminated. Local medical authorities and Merlin are concerned that water borne epidemics could result. ([OCHA, 1 May 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/37079)) Reports from the southern part of the country, Khatlon district, indicate that flooding in the area continues to endanger most of the population as water level rises. Although rain stopped on 4 May, the water level has not decreased and any further rain / meltwater will result in more population displacement. With rivers and channels already flooded and/or damaged, it is expected that the present conditions will continue for the coming weeks. [...] The most affected area is in/around SARVINE, in the VOSE district, where 3,000 people have been affected and two villages destroyed. IFRC also reported serious damages in MUMINABAD and KULYAB districts, where eight villages are flooded and 336 houses destroyed. Some areas are still reported inaccessible due to the collapse of bridges. [...] In the north-east of Tajikistan, Gharm district, there are no reports of new landslides. The Aga Khan Foundation reported that last week, in SHULONAK village, a landslide had killed seven people. Preliminary reports indicate major damage to crops. As rain is continuing, also the risk of additional landslides remains high. ([OCHA, 5 May 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/37114)) Reports from the southern part of the country indicate that the most affected areas remain VOSE and KULYAB districts in the Khatlon region. New rains affected the area on the morning of 6 May. As a consequence, UNOPS reported a rise in water levels around Shartuis, south of Kurgan Teppah, close to the Afghan border. [...] In the north-east of Tajikistan, Gharm and Aini districts remain under the threat of new landslides. The Aga Khan Foundation has been requested to act as focal point for the collection of information. They reported that Navdi was the town requiring most assistance. Consolidated reports indicated that 70 families lost their homes, while 102 other had their houses damaged. In addition, 500 heads of livestock were killed, 15 km of power lines, 5 transformers, 6 km of roads, 4 bridges and 2 schools destroyed. ([OCHA, 8 May 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/37168)) Heavy rainfall in the night of 17 May 1998 and during the day of 18 May 1998 have once again flooded various areas of the country, including Dushanbe. The northern part of the city has seen severe damage. There are a total of 58 houses totally damaged in this area. The people have lost food, clothing, household items and furniture. They are now living with their relatives or neighbours, and some have moved to the mosques. The eastern part of Dushanbe has also seen some damages: a total of 4 houses have been totally destroyed. The Red Crescent Society of Tajikistan started with the distribution of non-food items on May 19. The road to the airport was covered with mud more than 0.5 meter thick; many other streets in the city were covered with mud. ([OCHA, 25 May 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/37358)) The season of heavy rains is over and the flood-water of earlier this year has subsided. Tajik authorities and humanitarian organizations continue to provide relief to the victims of the flooding and landslides of this spring. Currently they are involved in initiatives aimed at controlling the effects of such floods in the future. There is, however, a threat of additional flooding along the bank of the Panj river, due to a high increase in the runoff of melting glaciers. [...] Fortunately the damage is limited to date. In Maskowski district, the village Sovchoz Turdiyev was evacuated for one night and 10 houses were damaged by the rising ground water. A bank enforcement and dam were also washed away.

Following torrential rains and a tornado, which hit Turbat and surrounding areas of the Makran Coastal Range of the Province of Balochistan/Pakistan on 3 March 1998, the Provincial Government has reported that there are so far 150 dead and over 500 people are missing. In addition, approximately 3,000 houses have been washed away and hundreds of livestock have also been killed. An overall assessment of the damage is being conducted. [...] A review of the situation with the Cabinet Division (Emergency Relief Cell) in Islamabad suggests that the situation is now under control in terms of the immediate relief and supplies, while search and rescue operations are continuing. The Government has no intention of launching an international appeal for assistance as it considers the Provincial Government fully able to cope with the disaster and to carry out rehabilitation work once the emergency phase is over. ([OCHA, 5 Mar 1998](https://reliefweb.int/node/36383)) Unprecedented rains wreaked havoc in the Turbat district of Balochistan province, western Pakistan, on 3 and 4 March 1998, causing flash floods along the Dasht river system that swept through more than 100 villages. The waters spread across entire river valleys, washing away houses, structures, irrigation systems and some 43,000 acres of standing crops. At least 300 people died in the disaster, while 4,000 homes were destroyed and another 8,000 were damaged. Altogether some 200,000 people in the area were affected by the disaster.

The UNDP/DHA Resident Representative reports that, with the on-set of the monsoon, incessant rains in the first week of August, were unusually heavy in the northern and southern parts of Myanmar. The water levels of various rivers and tributaries such as Ayeyarwady, Chindwin, Thanlwin, Sittaung, Kaladan and Bago have increased (in some cases, exceeded danger levels) affecting small villages, crop lands and habitats, and dislocating many people. According to unofficial figures: 31 persons dead, over 100 persons missing. Damage and losses have affected 109,029 households (767,439 persons) with housing submerged or washed away, large areas of cultivated crop land, and draught animals. Rural health centers also affected due to the inundation. ([UN DHA, 14 Aug 1997](https://reliefweb.int/node/32045)) The flooding in Myanmar has affected nine of Myanmar's fourteen States and Divisions, with Mon State, and Bago and Ayeyarwaddy Divisions being worst hit. Official figures for these three administrative units indicate 68 deaths, with 103,650 persons from 20,851 households being affected: 35,173 persons (6,636 households) in Mon State, 33,768 persons (6,639 households) in Bago Division, and 34,709 persons (7,576 households) in Ayeyarwaddy Division. ([UN DHA, 26 Aug 1997](https://reliefweb.int/node/32221)) In Bilin 5 wards and 18 villages were submerged, affecting 33,191 persons from 6,387 households. 5 persons drowned. Out of the 7 Health clinics, 5 were flooded. 200 persons from 46 households in Natkyee were rendered homeless. 60,000 acres of paddyland were submerged under water, out of which 7,300 were totally destroyed. Of the destroyed acres, only 5,000 are replantable, the rest has been eroded. In Kyaikhto 16 villages consisting of 1,925 households were flooded, out of which 258 heavily affected. On 3 August a landslide buried a Kayin buddhist village (Saung Naing Gyi) two miles away from Kyaikhto. All 120 households were either washed away or buried under the debris. 533 people were affected by the landslide and 16 persons perished. The village is now being resettled at a place close to the previous village. Out of the cultivated 12,240 acres, 6,639 were totally destroyed. Rehabilitation of the destroyed farmland is under way.

Torrential monsoon rains in July 1997 caused extensive floodings in various parts of Bangladesh. According to the Flood Information Centre in Dhaka, cited by News Agencies, almost one fourth of the country was affected. Flash floods and land/mudslides were reported in some 20 (out of 64 administrative) districts, especially in North and Central North as well as in the hilly areas in the north and the south-east. ([UN DHA, 13 Jul 1997](https://reliefweb.int/node/31517)) Seventy - seven people were reported dead and many were missing. At least 300,000 acres of crops were destroyed, more than 100,000 homes were washed away and a million people were marooned for days as towns and villages were innundated under several feet of swirling waters. Educational institutions, bridges, roads and other infrastructure were severely damaged and destroyed. More than 3.5 million people were affected in 22 districts of north-eastern and south-eastern parts of Bangladesh. ([ACT, 1 Oct 1997](https://reliefweb.int/node/32877))

The DHA/UNDP Resident Representative reports on damage caused by heavy rains in the State of Gujarat. According to the latest official reports, 111 people have been killed by floods. Some 200,000 houses have been damaged. The extent of loss of crops and cattle is being assessed. The floods have affected the Districts of Mehsana, Gandhi Nagar, Ahmedabad, Kheda, Sabarkanda, Vadodra, Banaskanda and Surender Nagar in the State of Gujarat. Communication links, including roads and railways, have been badly affected. Most of the villages are cut off and army helicopters have been dropping food packets for isolated people. ([UN DHA, 2 Jul 1997](https://reliefweb.int/node/31328)) Incessant and torrential monsoon rains, beginning in late July, have inundated large areas of Midnapore district in West Bengal, India. An estimated 16,000 houses have collapsed due to the flooding caused by the heavy rains and approximately 100,000 people are homeless. In addition, drinking water sources, roads, embankments, infrastructure and croplands have been extensively damaged or destroyed. There are immediate and acute needs of vulnerable familes for food, temporary shelter, and assistance in rebuilding their homes. ([CWS, 3 Sep 1997](https://reliefweb.int/node/32398))

From the early morning of 8 May to 9 May 1997, heavy rains poured down in Guangzhou, Qingyuan, Heyuan, and Yunfu of Guangdong Province. In the opinion of scientists, this type of rainfall only occurs every 500 years. The intensive rainfall led to severe mountain floods in some areas, water level of the rivers were fast increasing, villages and farmland were inundated and houses collapsed. According to incomplete statistics, 22 counties/cities with a population of 1.36 million were affected, 110 people died and 21 are missing, 1,354 people were injured, 177 villages were inundated, and 77,000 people had to be evacuated. 19,000 housing units collapsed and 56,000 were damaged. ([UN DHA, 15 May 1997](https://reliefweb.int/node/30562)) The floodwaters that plague China every year have begun to spread across its southern and eastern regions as the monsoon made its dramatic seasonal debut in Hong Kong on 1 July. At least 12 provinces are now experiencing flooding although waters have not reached disaster proportions in all as of yet. Most severely affected are those in the Pearl River catchment area, including its tributaries the Xijiang and Beijiang Rivers. The affected provinces include Hong Kong, Shanghai, Sichuan, Hubei, Hunan, Zhejing, Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, and Jiangxi. More than 70 people have already died in the flooding. Over 14 million people are currently affected by the floods through death, injury, destruction to homes, inundation of farmland, closure of factories and damage to infrastructure. Approximately 1,000 people had to be evacuated from the Beijing-Kowloon passenger train when a landslide blocked its passage. As floodwaters rose, rail travel between Shanghai and Fujian Province was suspended due to water-covered tracks and weakened trestles. ([IFRC, 14 Jul 1997](https://reliefweb.int/node/32005))

Since the month of April 1997, flooding has been affecting the northern region of Afghanistan. Several rivers and their tributaries have overflowed their banks in the provinces of Balkh, Saripul, and Faryab causing damage/destruction to houses, cultivated land, irrigation system, grain mills, roads, and bridges. Livestock has also been killed. ([UN DHA, 14 May 1997](https://reliefweb.int/node/32313))

The government has declared a state of emergency following torrential rains in the north and centre of **Pakistan** since the middle of last week. The worst affected area appears to be Azad Kashmir. Over 2,000 people have been reported killed, roads and many bridges are damaged. Agricultural land and crops are seriously affected. The damage is described as enormous. Government authorities at all levels are undertaking emergency operations. The UN Resident Coordinator has convened the Disaster Management Team, consisting of government, UN and other donor representatives, who are working on a preliminary assessment of damage and needs. The government has not yet issued an appeal for international assistance. ([UN DHA, 15 Sep 1992](https://reliefweb.int/node/36031)) The intensity of rainfall was highest ever recorded in sub-continent. Unprecedented high flows recorded in catchment areas of rivers Jhelum and Chenab similarly, severe damages reported in Azad Kashmir and northern areas. The high flood water now heading towards Sindh province. Worst of disaster may yet come as flood waters move south and threaten to destroy headworks which control flow five main rivers in the country. Exact numbers of human casualties not yet known, since flooding still continuing. Preliminary official estimates are over 700 people dead of which 143 in Punjab, with many still missing. Other, usually reliable sources put the death toll at over 2,000. Karakuram highway linking Pakistan with China badly damaged and closed for traffic. Major port of Punjab river basin devastated by floods. Thousands of villages under water and housing and crops (particularly cotton) worth billions of rupees totally destroyed. Food shortage expected in flood affected areas. ([UN DHA, 16 Sep 1992](https://reliefweb.int/node/36031)) The worst flood disaster of the century in **Pakistan** is still evolving. More rainfall and thunderstorms are expected and the floods are still spreading south to Sindh. Nearly 2 million people have been affected and an area of more than 3 million acres is flooded. Around 56,000 houses have been demolished and another 20,000 damaged. The number of deaths is now estimated at over 2,000. Numerous bridges and roads particularly in the northwestern frontier province have been destroyed and the damage to crops (cotton) runs into hundreds of millions of dollars. The army continues to assist the local authorities with emergency relief and tents, blankets, clothes and food have been distributed. ([UN DHA, 19 Sep 1992](https://reliefweb.int/node/36031)) **India:** Recent floods in states of Uttar Pradesh, Jammu And Kashmir have led to almost 500 dead. Some 14,000 houses damaged. Road networks impaired by landslides and serious damage to crops. ([UN DHA, 21 Sep 1992](https://reliefweb.int/node/35062)) The floods in **Pakistan** that have raged south through Pakistan for two weeks started to recede over the weekend. The government declared a state of emergency for this worst disaster of the century early last week. Damage as reported by the government: persons dead 1,171; persons affected 5,658,498; villages affected 7,108; area affected (acres) 4,767,523; damage to crops (USD million) 22.8; houses damaged/demolished 450,000; forest and timber destroyed (CFT million) 1.5; damage to infrastructure (USD million) 71.2.

Heavy rains caused by Tropical Storm Uring which struck central Philippines on 5 November 1991 resulted in devastating flash floods in islands of Negros and Leyte. Assessment of damage and needs by local authorities is still underway. Electricity and communications not operational in affected areas. Initial reports provided by Central Office of Civil Defense (OCD) yield following data: casualties: dead 2,155, injured 37, missing 312 (an additional 1,800 persons are unconfirmed missing); population affected: 177,786; damage: 12 bridges totally or partially destroyed. ([UN DHA, 7 Nov 1991](https://reliefweb.int/node/35092)) According to local authorities, the effects of storm 'Uring' (international code 'Thelma') were further compounded by extensive denudation of hillsides which caused floods and landslides. Worst hit was Ormoc Port (120,000 inhabitants) on west coast of Leyte island, some 560 km (340 miles) southeast of Manila, which was ravaged by water-borne debris and mud. ([UN DHA, 7 Nov 1991](https://reliefweb.int/node/35092)) Death toll increasing as more bodies retrieved, many of which from flood-swept islands off Ormoc. Exact number to be verified, since people buried relatives without informing authorities. […] In Ormoc alone, 3,009 people died and 2,012 are missing, relatively low number of injured reflects sudden nature and strength of the floods, which reached height up to ten feet. […] In Leyte, 12 municipalities are affected and still without electricity. Roads and dams are heavily damaged, 12 bridges are destroyed. In Negros Occidental, six municipalities and three cities are affected, two bridges are destroyed, one bridge damaged. ([UN DHA, 11 Nov 1991](https://reliefweb.int/node/35092)) On return from mission to Ormoc, UNDRO delegate reported that with financial support from Presidency, local authorities repaired 70 percent of electricity and, with assistance from technical team dispatched by JICA (Japan International Co-operation Agency), 60 percent of water supply system. Food and medical care are regularly provided (one suspected case of cholera under strict surveillance). JICA's medical team completed two-week operations.9 out of 45 damaged bridges now passable and it is hoped that all damaged infrastructure in Ormoc will be restored by early 1992. Following verification, toll of deaths officially recorded is now at 3,840 (plus 2,000 missing). 3,050 people are injured. ([UN DHA, 22 Nov 1991](https://reliefweb.int/node/35092))
