After the historic flash flood on the night of October 1 and the morning of October 2, water pipes in the areas where the flood passed through were completely damaged. Photo: Hoai Thu |

The domestic water source for households in Son Ha and Hoa Son villages is mainly taken from the stream upstream, bordering Tay Son commune. This is also the location where the flash flood fell, and currently the roads and water pipes are all severely damaged. Photo: Hoai Thu |

Efforts are underway to re-install the water pipeline from the source of the stream bordering Tay Son commune to Son Ha and Hoa Son villages. The main pipeline leading from the stream on the mountain down is expected to be completed on October 8. Photo: Thanh Cuong |
