Secretary of the
provincial Party Committee Bui Van Tinh and his entourage inspect a landslide
site at residential area 26 in Dong Tien ward, Hoa Binh city.
Due
to floods in 2017 and 2018 and water discharge of Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, cracks
and landslides were found at residential area 26 in Dong Tien ward, Hoa Binh
city, at about 10a.m on July 30, 2017, which have greatly affected production
and daily life of local residents.
Given
this, the provincial People’s Committee sent forces and equipment to evacuate
people and assets to safer places. A total of 33 households have been moved to
Trung Minh commune’s resettlement area. Thirty two households have received
land for resettlement and 24 of them have begun housing construction.
Speaking
at the working session, Tinh expressed his sympathy over losses and
difficulties facing people at residential area 26 in Dong Tien ward. He asked
the provincial People’s Committee to reclaim land of households who have received
resettlement land and not allow any family to stay in areas vulnerable to
landslides. Households should be forced to move when necessary, he said.
Stressing
the need to promptly complete infrastructure to help locals soon stabilise
their lives, Tinh said each resident should get 15kg of rice within three
years.
Better
communication work will help improve public awareness of natural disaster
combat, he added, noting that sand and gravel gathering sites along the two
banks of the Da River must be dispersed.
Landslide
risks should be announced to avoid incidents in 2019 and the years to come at
residential areas 25 and 26 in Dong Tien ward, and mechanisms to support people
in residential areas in seeking jobs should be issued to help them stabilise their
lives in both short and long terms, he said.
