Accordingly, after receiving the urgent information, the Steering Committee for Disaster Prevention and Control of Lam Thanh Commune and the Commune Military Command quickly arrived at the scene. Faced with the dangerous situation, Chairman of the Commune People's Committee Nguyen Huu Ha directly directed and decided to mobilize a large barge in the area to bring forces to approach the isolated area.
Thanks to the strong and timely direction, the rescue force successfully rescued 2 households, including 1 household in Nghi Xuan commune (Ha Tinh) with 2 people and 1 household in Phu Hung hamlet, Lam Thanh commune with 3 people. All 5 people were brought to shore safely.
At the scene, Mr. Nguyen Huu Ha directly visited, encouraged and supported each household with 500,000 VND to promptly buy food and stabilize their lives in the immediate future.
At the time of the incident, the storm's circulation caused heavy rain and strong gusts of wind, causing the Lam River water level to rise unusually quickly. Previously, the commune's loudspeaker system and information channels continuously warned and requested people not to go to rivers and lakes to exploit aquatic products. However, due to subjectivity, some fishermen still go fishing in the river, leading to being stuck.
The Chairman of Lam Thanh Commune People's Committee emphasized: "We must not ignore the extreme weather. Forces need to continue to stay close to the area, increase warnings and prepare evacuation plans when necessary."
The People's Committee of the commune also recommends that people raise their vigilance, strictly comply with recommendations on natural disaster prevention, and absolutely not be subjective to ensure the safety of life and property.
