Hoài Phương |

Gia Lai - Given the complicated developments of storm No. 12, the province has temporarily suspended all sea tourism activities, deployed response work, and ensured safety for the people.

In the face of the complicated developments of Typhoon Fengshen (Typhoon No. 12) moving rapidly into the East Sea, Gia Lai province has requested a temporary stop on all tourist transportation activities at sea, to ensure the safety of people and tourists.

The Provincial People's Committee forecasts that storm No. 12 is likely to cause widespread heavy rain, posing a potential risk of major floods, deep flooding, flash floods and landslides in many localities.

Chairman of Gia Lai Provincial People's Committee Pham Anh Tuan requested the Department of Agriculture and Environment, the Provincial Border Guard Command, Quy Nhon Maritime Port Authority, and coastal localities and ship owners to count and grasp the location of all ships and vehicles operating at sea; instruct fishermen to move out of the danger zone or find safe shelter.

Localities must resolutely evacuate people in low-lying areas, along rivers and streams, areas at high risk of landslides, especially in areas where landslides have occurred such as Tra Cong village (An Hoa commune) and Cam mountain (Cat Tien commune) ...

The grassroots government needs to proactively review and detect areas at risk of flash floods, landslides, and deep flooding early, especially households living in mountainous areas, steep slopes, along rivers and streams, and road slopes that have signs of landslides, to organize evacuation to safe places before floods and floods occur, avoiding being passive and surprised.

The authorities organize guarding, control and support to ensure safe traffic, especially in culverts, spillways, deeply flooded areas, fast-flowing water, or places that have been at risk of landslides. Localities are determined not to allow people and vehicles to pass through if safety is not guaranteed, and not to let unfortunate damage occur due to subjectivity and carelessness.

The government guides and supports people to reinforce their houses, protect their property, reinforce cages, and harvest agricultural and aquatic products early according to the motto "green at home, more green in the fields" to minimize damage caused by storms and floods.

On the same morning, people in the coastal villages of the eastern part of Gia Lai province proactively brought their boats ashore to minimize damage. In Nhon Chau commune - the only island commune of the province, local authorities, armed forces and people urgently trimmed trees, cleared obstacles, and moved their boats and fishing boats to safe shelters.

In Tan Phung coastal village (Phu My Dong commune), hundreds of fishermen have fixed their boats to the roots of trees in the protective forest, some households have even pulled their basket boats up high hills to prevent high tides and strong winds from causing big waves.

By noon on October 21, the Gia Lai Provincial Border Guard Command had directed Border Guard stations to coordinate with local authorities to notify and instruct ships operating in coastal areas to proactively avoid storm No. 12, and at the same time review and count all vehicles operating at sea.

Thereby, the units have called for 1,892 ships with 8,156 fishermen to anchor safely in storm shelters. Currently, 4,734 vessels with 33,138 fishermen have taken shelter, while 1,041 vessels with 7,294 fishermen are still operating in the waters outside the storm-affected areas.

The Border Guard force sent 68 officers to the area to propagate and mobilize 1,432 fishermen, and organized 22 patrols and controls with 75 officers and soldiers to guide ships to anchor safely at Tam Quan, De Gi and Quy Nhon ports.
