Landslide in Chao Pi village, Van Phu commune damaged many buildings and houses of local people.
In Chao Pi village, Van Phu commune, Mrs. Pham Thi Nhom’s family has been living in constant fear for many days now. The house at the foot of the hill has large cracks that can cause rocks and soil to fall down at any time during storms. Unable to stay, the family has been forced to stay at relatives’ houses. However, staying there for too long is inconvenient, so they still try to return home on sunny days.
“Whenever it gets dark, I don’t dare stay home. My husband and I are both sick, so it’s very difficult for us to move around. Many times we have to ask someone to carry us out of the house,” said Mrs. Nhom.
The outbuilding completely collapsed, so Mrs. Nhom's family had to bring water to the front of the house for use.
Other households are in a similar situation. The family of Ha Thi Cuoi in Lo village, Thien Phu commune, just spent more than 10 million VND to clear the landslides that hit their house during storm No. 11. However, the house structure was no longer safe, forcing her family to build a small shack nearby as temporary shelter.
Landslides caused insecurity for 6 households with 31 people living at the foot of Lo hill, Thien Phu commune.
The biggest wish of Mrs. Nhom, Ms. Cuoi and many other households living in areas with high risk of landslides is a safe place to live. Because only when they are no longer afraid of landslides can people truly begin to rebuild their lives after the natural disaster.
Ms. Luong Thi Xoa in Lo village said that the people had a meeting and were informed that they would soon be evacuated from the dangerous area. “The government said they would arrange new accommodation because it is dangerous to our lives here. We just hope to have a stable place to live so we can work with peace of mind,” Ms. Xoa said.
In response to urgent requests, the Thanh Hoa Provincial People's Committee has repeatedly declared emergency situations in landslide areas, directed local authorities to promptly deploy measures to protect people's safety; at the same time, reviewed, selected locations and prepared investment proposals for resettlement area construction.
In Van Phu commune, Mr. Le Van Canh, Vice Chairman of the Commune People's Committee, said that the locality has surveyed and identified a suitable area to build a resettlement area for 19 households that need to be relocated. "The commune has reported to the Department of Agriculture and Environment and the Department of Finance to request financial support. We are making efforts so that people can move to a safe place before the rainy season next year," Mr. Canh informed.
The implementation of the shortened investment mechanism according to the decision to declare an emergency situation helps resettlement projects to be implemented faster, avoid prolonged procedures, and ensure progress in the context of unpredictable rain and floods. This is also a fundamental solution to end the situation of people having to live in temporary conditions and constantly moving every time heavy rain lasts for a long time.
People's makeshift measures could not prevent rocks and soil from flooding into their houses.
Once the first resettlement areas are completed, households will be relocated to new, safe and stable housing. This is an important step to help people quickly restore their daily life, production and stabilize their lives after natural disasters, while minimizing damage in the next floods.
