China's Ministry of Finance(MOF) said Saturday that it has allocated 50 million yuan(about 7.6 million U.S.dollars) for infrastructure emergency repair in the quake-hit Yingjiang County in China's southwestern Yunnan Province.
The funding, which comes from the central budget, will be spent on repairing of infrastructures, including roads and water supply system, said the ministry in a statement on its website.
A 5.8-magnitude earthquake jolted Yingjiang County near the border with Myanmar Thursday, leaving 25 people dead and more than 250 others injured including 134 seriously. About 127,100 residents have been evacuated to safety.
The central government on Friday allocated 55 million yuan for quake relief in the region for relocating and settling local residents, providing living subsidies, and offering condolence funds to those who lost family members in the quake.
