During the days when Hoi An was submerged in water, Mr. Truong Van An (living on 28.3 Street, Hoi An Tay Ward) stood up to mobilize and call on everyone on social networks to join hands to help people in flooded areas.
According to Mr. Truong Van An, the main donated foods are bread, water, and instant sweet soup that do not need to be processed. These boxes of relief food will be transferred directly to Hoi An Ward People's Committee for distribution, to the people in the heavily flooded areas, isolated by floodwaters.
"Immediately after I posted an appeal to everyone to join hands to support, many people came here to support packaging and gradually transporting to Hoi An Ward People's Committee. Even foreigners, who know the information, have come here to help" - Mr. An said.
During the flood days when students were off school, teacher Nguyen Thi Cuc Ly (teacher at Van Thanh Tung Primary School, Dien Ban Dong Ward) also went to the relief point to pack goods together.
According to teacher Cuc Ly, seeing many people in isolated areas lacking food and provisions, she also supported and helped with friends and colleagues.
To support people, in recent days, the People's Committee of Hoi An Ward has also mobilized human resources to transport essential food to support households still stuck in deeply flooded areas.
