“We have determined that the storm circulation will affect the Northwestern and Northeastern provinces, so power plants, especially hydropower plants, which provide large amounts of electricity to the North, are likely to be affected, so we need to be ready to handle any incidents that may occur,” Minister Nguyen Hong Dien emphasized.
