On the afternoon of November 8, speaking with VietNamNet reporter, Ms. Bun Som Lao, Chairman of the People's Committee of Krong Na commune (Buon Don district) confirmed that the locality had received information from Military Region 5 about offering a reward of 10 million VND for anyone who finds the Yak-130 aircraft suspected of crashing in the area of Krong Na commune.
According to Mrs. Bun Som Lao, the Krong Na commune government has announced the reward on the commune's public address system so that people can understand and join in the search. However, the people in the commune still determine that finding the plane is the most important thing, the sooner the better.
"The commune government has mobilized people to prepare boats and canoes to support the force to cross the Serepok River to the other side to search for the Yak-130 aircraft," said Ms. Bun Som Lao.
Mr. Hoang Trung Nghia, Chairman of Buon Don District People's Committee, also said that from yesterday to this morning, the locality has mobilized nearly 500 people (including many forces) to coordinate with authorities to urgently search for the Yak-130 aircraft, but up to now there have been no results.
Regarding the Yak-130 aircraft suspected of crashing in Buon Don district, a leader of the Dak Lak Provincial Military Command informed VietNamNet reporters that this is a rugged mountainous area with very weak phone signals, making communication or using flycams very difficult, which has caused many disadvantages for the search effort.
