Orders and determination

Yesterday, on the media and social networks, a photo appeared of a man in Thanh Son village, Vu Bon commune (Dak Lak province) being rescued by the Ea O commune police using a drone while trapped in a flooded area.

That image is considered a typical example of efforts to save people in natural disasters, especially those isolated in the middle of the rushing water.

In the context of severe natural disasters, when floods caused heavy damage to people and property in the Central provinces, the Politburo issued very drastic and timely instructions to overcome the consequences.

The Politburo's conclusion announcement on November 21, 2025 affirmed: People's rescue must be carried out in the spirit of protecting people's lives as a top priority. In the context of isolated residential areas, landslides, power outages, and lack of domestic water, the urgent task is to ensure absolutely not to let people go hungry, cold, lack clean water, medicine, or other essential necessities.

In particular, in areas that are still heavily flooded, where traffic is interrupted, access and relief are very difficult. The Politburo requested the maximum mobilization of resources from functional agencies, the army, the police and relief organizations to strive to reach isolated areas, bringing food, clean water and medicine to the people.

The authorities are required to continue to control and divert traffic, not allowing people to enter deeply flooded areas to avoid unfortunate accidents. Along with that, the operation of hydroelectric reservoirs and irrigation reservoirs needs to be strictly controlled to minimize the risk of flash floods and landslides.

The Politburo not only requires mobilizing local forces, but also calls for the participation of support forces from the Central Government. The Ministry of National Defense and the Ministry of Public Security are required to use specialized equipment and means such as helicopters and drones to transport food and necessities to isolated areas. This is a strategic decision, aiming to ensure quick, effective and safe relief for both rescue forces and people.

The Politburo's drastic and timely direction on relief work and overcoming the consequences of floods shows the strong determination of the Party and State in protecting people's lives and property. This is also the command of the heart.

Efforts to mobilize maximum resources, organize relief and support people during this difficult time will help stabilize people's lives, soon restore production and improve the quality of life of the community.

The determination shown through yesterday's Conclusion of the Politburo is not only an affirmation of a strong political system, but also a spirit of solidarity and responsibility of the whole society in difficult times.
