Because it is a vulnerable point that often experiences landslides, the local government has built dozens of meters of stone embankment at the foot of the mountain to protect the households below. However, this is a temporary measure because if there is a large landslide, soil and rocks can easily spill over this embankment, and people still have to evacuate when it rains heavily.
