The decision regarding the aid distribution was made by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. The aid will be prioritized in the following order: first to the spouse, second to the parents, and third to the children. Ramanan informed reporters after visiting the Deepavali carnival at the National Stadium today. The floods, triggered by a glacial ice and rock avalanche in Tibet's Lhende Khola, resulted in the death of 1,451 people and left around 5,700 individuals, including over 600 foreigners, missing.",
  "summary": "The payments will be made in order of priority to the next of kin through the national disaster management agency.",
