On August 26, information appeared on social networks reflecting a principal of a primary school in Thanh Hoa singing karaoke while storm No. 5 was making landfall.

According to the reflection, the person who sang karaoke was the Principal of Tho Dan Primary School (Tho Phu commune, Thanh Hoa).
A representative of Tho Phu Commune People's Committee said that the Principal of Tho Dan Primary School had reported the incident. Accordingly, at noon on August 25, he and a teacher at the school went to sing karaoke with a friend's family. At this time, the locality is implementing storm prevention and control work No. 5, but he is not the school's on-duty leader in storm prevention and control.
When the principal went to sing karaoke, the leadership schedule of Tho Dan Primary School was taken over by a vice principal. However, singing karaoke at a time when the whole locality focuses on storm prevention and control is not suitable. The principal has written a review, the locality is also continuing to review and handle any violations" - a representative of Tho Phu Commune People's Committee informed.
