The UN-sponsored World Food Program appealed last week for $6.5 million to provide emergency food aid to the growing number of Cambodians at­tempt­ing to flee to Thailand.

WFP officials said the money is necessary to provide 14,990 tons of food for 90,000 Cambodians currently sheltered in camps in Surin, Si Sa Ket and Trat prov­inces, including some 10,000 refu­gees who officials say may cross into Thailand in coming weeks.
