One of the contents at the meeting, the Chairman of the Hai Phong City People's Committee directed the Department of Construction to preside over and coordinate with the Department of Finance and the Do Son Ward People's Committee to review the investment scale of the Do Son sea embankment project towards ensuring safety and cost savings. In the immediate period, the land reclamation has not been implemented according to the plan, and the Hai Phong City People's Committee will report before October 15, 2025.
Previously, voters of Do Son district (old), now Do Son ward, made a recommendation at the 18th session of the 16th Hai Phong City People's Council on the deterioration of Do Son sea dyke. At the end of 2024, in a document responding to voters' petitions, the People's Committee of Hai Phong City informed: To ensure the landscape and safety of the sea dike system in zones 1 and 2 of Do Son Tourist Area, every year, the Department of Construction has organized an inspection and coordinated with the Department of Finance to develop a plan to repair and maintain the sea dike system and the perimeter yard. In particular, in 2024, the units will repair 142 m2 of the consumption yard in Zone 1 and have a plan to repair and maintain the sea dyke in 2025 with a budget of about more than 2 billion VND. The People's Committee of Hai Phong City also directed relevant departments, branches, units and localities to balance capital sources to repair and maintain the sea dyke system to meet voters' requirements.
Recently, due to the impact of storm No. 3 Wipha, fierce big waves continuously hit the beach embankment area of Zone 2 causing serious landslides, peeling off concrete patches, posing a risk to the safety of people and tourists. According to records, hundreds of meters of sidewalks along the coast of Do Son 2 were surrounded by iron fences and warning signs of danger. Inside, there are many sections that have sunk and landslides, the most landslide area is about 5 meters long and about 1 meter deep. At the foot of the sea dyke, there are also broken sections that have been reinforced.
