People spread rocks to thank after landslides
Recently, the landslide situation in Vinh Long province has been complicated, directly affecting houses and roads, typically in Hamlet 4A, Cai Ngang commune, a landslide section about 15m long, causing many households to worry because it affects their daily life and production.
Mr. Nguyen Hong Dieu, in Hamlet 4A, said that the landslide threatened his house and made it difficult to travel.
"We hope the government will soon fix it to reduce the damage. People have to pour 5-7 blocks of stone onto a nearly 300m long road on someone else's land to get used to it every day," Mr. Dieu added.
Faced with these difficulties, Mr. Nguyen Thanh Hung - Head of Hamlet 4A said that the government is closely monitoring the situation and supporting people to overcome the damage.
According to Mr. Hung, normally, people buy construction stone at 370,000 VND/black, but now they have to buy an additional 10,000 VND/black.
Mr. Hung emphasized that in addition to material damage, stabilizing people's lives, travel and production also face difficulties. Emergency measures are being implemented, but a long-term plan is still needed.
"People in the hamlet hope that authorities at all levels will soon fix the landslides, protect their houses and roads, reduce financial damage and stabilize daily life and production to normal," Mr. Hung added.
