Responding to reporters about the progress of the "Quang Trung Campaign" aimed at supporting people affected by floods, Deputy Minister Phung Duc Tien said that this year, the natural disaster situation has been complex with "storms upon storms" and "floods upon floods," causing heavy damage estimated at nearly 100,000 billion VND, resulting in 420 deaths and missing persons. Against this backdrop, General Secretary To Lam, the Politburo , and the Prime Minister launched the "Quang Trung Campaign" with the goal of rapidly rebuilding houses for people before the Lunar New Year.
Following the Prime Minister 's directive, the entire political system has joined the effort. Ministers, Party Secretaries, and Chairmen of People's Committees of provinces and cities have directly supervised and mobilized maximum resources, working day and night with a "three shifts, four teams" spirit to implement the campaign.

The Ministry of Public Security mobilized more than 11,000 officers and soldiers to assist people in overcoming the consequences of natural disasters, including supporting the construction of new houses with a total value of 120 billion VND, and leading the reconstruction of 420 houses that had collapsed.
Through the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, several embassies and international organizations have provided and pledged aid in the form of goods and cash worth US$11.5 million (of which, goods accounted for nearly US$4.5 million, and cash disbursements totaled US$3.4 million for 22,925 households. Over US$3.5 million was also allocated to support the construction and repair of 30,970 homes. Approximately US$0.1 million was also received for other capacity-building activities).
The Ministry of Finance submitted to the Prime Minister Decision No. 328, allocating 328 billion VND in support. The Ministry of Construction published 360 house designs and directed the provision of materials for the "Quang Trung Campaign".
The Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union registered to build 60 new houses and repair 82 damaged houses with the participation of 104 teams and 1,344 members, mobilizing nearly 2.7 billion VND in support funds, along with many other support activities from ministries and sectors.
At the preliminary review conference of the "Quang Trung Campaign" on December 30, 2025, 34,759 damaged houses had been repaired, achieving 100% of the set target. With the spirit of "building on success," the Prime Minister requested ministries, sectors, and localities to resolutely complete the reconstruction of houses before January 15, 2026, helping people stabilize their lives and achieving accomplishments to celebrate the 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam. This shortened the deadline by 15 days compared to the original plan (January 31, 2026).
According to leaders of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, as of 4:00 PM on January 6, 2026, the results of the rapid implementation of the "Quang Trung Campaign" to rebuild and repair houses for households severely damaged by storms and floods in the Central region are as follows:

At the meeting on the morning of January 7, 2026, the Prime Minister emphasized the profound humanitarian significance of the "Quang Trung Campaign," calling on all levels, sectors, localities, organizations, individuals, and businesses to continue responding to accelerate progress, striving for completion before January 15, 2026, with even greater speed. The Prime Minister also requested continued support for 34,759 households in 8 central provinces and cities whose houses require repair, with 5 million VND per household.
