THE Korean Air provided relief goods worth over 106 million Korean won for those affected by typhoon Yolanda.

The Korean carrier delivered its first set of relief goods to Cebu Province on Nov. 22.

The goods, which included 60,000 liters of mineral water, 60,000 cup noodle, 24,000 cups of rice and 2,000 blankets, were turned over to various social welfare organizations for distribution to the typhoon victims.
