Flood Forecasting and Warning Centre
The delegation highly appreciated the activities of BWDB’s Flood Forecasting and Warning Centre. They were interested to work with Bangladesh on flood forecasting and management, as flood was a big problem for South Sudan.
About 70 per cent area of the country often flooded in rainy season and causing huge losses and damages, the South Sudanese delegation informed.
