A local resident said that not only household waste and plastic waste, but also dead poultry and livestock were thrown into the stream, giving off a foul smell.

It is known that along the route from National Highway 7 to Thach Ngan commune, passing through many streams and creeks, there are a total of 10 spillways and 1 solid bridge. The spillway over Nam Cai stream is the first bridge on the route to Thach Ngan commune, and this is also the place where the most trash is thrown. The remaining spillways have relatively little trash dumping into the streams and creeks. Photo: HTThe overflow bridge suddenly became a 'garbage collection' place?! The leader of the People's Committee of Thach Ngan commune admitted that the situation of littering in this overflow bridge area has been happening for a while. The local government and organizations have repeatedly propagated to the people about environmental protection awareness, the harmful effects of waste on water resources and human health. In local meetings, this content has also been reminded and suggested to be promptly remedied, but so far it has not been thoroughly resolved.

The leader of the People's Committee of Thach Ngan commune also expressed that the government and organizations will strengthen propaganda measures, at the same time encourage the detection of litterers to promptly prevent and remind, such as researching the installation of surveillance cameras. In the long term, the commune currently does not have a household waste collection service, which is also a difficulty in environmental protection work, and needs support from all levels and sectors to find solutions.
