According to Xinhua news agency, the funding comes from Party dues collected from members and administered by the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the political organization.

According to the report, the CCP urged its organizations to take flood control and disaster relief measures, minimize casualties and ensure the safety of people’s lives and properties.

In addition, the Party insisted on allocating money quickly to the primary level, in order to benefit those working on the front line and those most affected.

The Chinese Government earmarked 110 million yuan (about 15.43 million dollars) on Tuesday to support rescue efforts in the light of heavy rains flooding in the Tianjin-Hebei-Beijing region.

In addition, the Ministry of Finance also allocated 842 million yuan (more than 117 million dollars) to disaster prevention and mitigation funds for the agricultural and water resources sectors in 12 provincial-level regions, including Hebei.

Areas of northern China are still recovering from heavy floods and rains associated with Typhoon Doksuri, which left thousands of people evacuated and at least 20 dead.
