(HBO) – Vice Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Council Tran Dang Ninh, along with officials of the provincial departments of agriculture and rural development, science and technology, and natural resources and environment, the People’s Committee and relevant boards of Da Bac district, has inspected and instructed the evacuation of residents in Lau Bai hamlet, Vay Nua commune, from dangerous areas.

Lau Bai hamlet is home to 33 households with 124 people, all of whom are Dao ethnic people. In the recent abnormal downpours, landslides blocked many sections of the road linking the commune’s centre with this hamlet, and the road has just been passable since October 14 afternoon. A low voltage electric pole fell down, triggering a blackout for almost a week and forcing all local students to be off school. Notably, houses of 27 families are in a dangerous situation because of landslides, floods and subsidence.

After inspecting the situation, Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Council Tran Dang Ninh valued local authorities’ activeness in preventing and addressing disaster consequences. Regarding landslides, flash floods and subsidence at houses and hills, he stressed that it is of critical importance to ensure residents’ safety and protect their assets, especially when a storm recently weakening to a tropical depression is moving towards the mainland and may trigger further downpours.

He asked authorities of Da Bac district, Vay Nua commune and Lau Bai hamlet to give spiritual support to local people and prepare land for them to resettle. The Da Bac district People’s Committee has to make plans and estimate costs to submit to the provincial administration for the timely provision of relief. Authorities must ensure food, clothes and living place for flood victims as well as environmental hygiene to prevent post-flood diseases.



An excavator is used to make path for people in Lau Bai hamlet to move to a new living place in the area of Lim hill (Vay Nua commune).

Nearly 50 officers and soldiers of the military high commands of Hoa Binh province and Da Bac district, along with Vay Nua residents, finished building 21 tents and eight makeshift shelters in the area of Lim hill for 27 families of Lau Bai. The provincial Department of Health also distributed medicine and anti-mosquito substance and instructed locals to use them to prevent diseases./.
