Due to the impact of Typhoon No. 2, water levels in streams rose, and the irrigation canal system was buried under mud and rocks, preventing drainage and causing prolonged flooding. To mitigate the damage caused by the typhoon, the Tam Thai Commune Youth Union mobilized 90 young people from four villages – Na Tong, Lung, Canh Trap, and Can – to dredge the canals in these four villages. These canals provide irrigation for dozens of hectares of rice paddies in Tam Thai Commune.

With the enthusiastic volunteer spirit of young people, after one day of work, the entire canal system of the four villages was cleared of vegetation, dredged of soil and rocks, and the waterways were unblocked. The youth union members' assistance in dredging the irrigation canals is very important, demonstrating the proactive and volunteer role of young people in contributing to the community, building new rural areas, and helping people develop production, gradually reducing poverty sustainably..
