Mr. Nguyen Thanh Hoang - Chairman of the People's Committee of Ky Son district, expressed concern: After the flood, the People's Committee of the district allocated nearly 1 billion VND from the budget to repair the landslides and temporarily open the road, so that people in Muong Tip, Muong Ai, and Ta Ca communes would no longer be isolated. However, such a solution is still a temporary solution. Photo: Xuan Hoang |
