BEIJING, Feb. 22 (Xinhua) -- The Chinese central government Wednesday allocated 1 120 million yuan (19 million U.S. dollars) to drought-stricken areas in southwestern Yunnan province.
The relief funds, jointly 2 arranged by the Ministry 3 of Finance and the Ministry of Civil Affairs (MCA), will be dedicated 4 to secure basic supply of food and drinking water, according to a statement issued by the MCA.
Since December, a persistent 5 drought in Yunnan has affected 6 more than 6 million people, leaving about 2.4 million people and 1.5 million livestock 7 short of drinking water, said the statement.

The government of Yunnan has also vowed 9 to ensure supplies of drinking water for millions of drought victims, earmarking 179.8 million yuan (28.5 million U.S. dollars) for a drought relief fund and mobilizing 1.95 million people in its efforts to neutralize 10 the drought.
