Urgent reconstruction and stabilization of people's lives after the flood

Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of the province Dinh Quang Tuyen said that due to the impact of storm No. 10 and the circulation of storm No. 11, 65/92 communes and wards in the area were affected, of which more than 40 localities suffered heavy damage.

More than 2,000 houses were flooded, many people's properties and vehicles were damaged; 4 medical facilities, many schools and public administrative centers were severely damaged; the traffic system, especially National Highway 3, was seriously eroded, and it is expected to take a long time to repair...

"The total damage is estimated at over VND4,000 billion, and the locality currently needs about VND650 billion for urgent repairs and to help people stabilize their lives soon. Up to now, through the relief receiving account, the province has received over VND100 billion from organizations and individuals inside and outside the province. In addition to financial support, many volunteer groups have directly gone to the affected areas to help people overcome the consequences of storms and floods," said Mr. Dinh Quang Tuyen.

By 8:00 a.m. on October 11, the water in all residential areas had receded, and people were focusing on overcoming the consequences of the floods (the water on many roads had receded, but mud and garbage were causing many difficulties for people and vehicles to travel, and at the same time, posing a risk of environmental pollution if not handled promptly).

Currently, assigned agencies, units and residential groups have been proactive in preparing human resources, materials and means to respond to natural disasters.
