Right from the first days of the storm entering the East Sea, VNPT directed its affiliated units in the Central Highlands region to urgently review the telecommunications network infrastructure, reinforce and brace telecommunications stations, and check the safety of inter-provincial fiber optic cables.

Faced with the complicated developments of storm No. 13 Kalmaegi, VNPT Group leaders held a meeting to direct units to immediately deploy response plans.

Units also replenish fuel, generators, and spare materials at telecommunication stations and stations to be ready to respond to information in all situations. Technical staff are reinforced on-site at key points to ensure timely handling when incidents occur.

Up to now, VNPT provinces and cities in the areas affected by storm No. 13 have completed the work of reviewing, consolidating infrastructure and arranging backup materials at telecommunication stations and stations; adding small generators to network node stations, ensuring a stable power source for priority equipment.

Notably, VNPT has mobilized many modern equipment such as self-propelled mobile broadcasting vehicles, information containers, field broadcasting stations, along with 50 Inmarsat satellite phones and 31 VSAT-IP stations to the provinces in the affected area. At the same time, the satellite transmission system has also been activated, ensuring smooth information serving the direction and operation of disaster prevention work of authorities at all levels.
