In addition, Ch'nóc village, which borders Laos, has 121 households/519 people and is completely isolated. In this area, old landslides are still not cleared, while heavy rain continues to cause many new cracks and landslides to appear, causing rocks and soil to flow down, seriously cutting off the road to the village.
