On behalf of the inspection team, comrade Dinh Viet Hong praised the proactive work in water regulation at Ve Vung Lake and encouraged the forces on duty at the lake during the recent heavy rain.

After the inspection, comrade Dinh Viet Hong requested the Ve Vung reservoir management board to monitor, be on duty regularly and carefully calculate the time to release water to ensure the safety of the dam and downstream area. Proactively arrange 24/7 guarding to quickly grasp any bad situations that may occur.

Yen Thanh currently has more than 200 large and small dams, therefore, comrade Dinh Viet Hong requested the district to proactively regulate water in the dams and lakes, not to be subjective with the weather. He emphasized that this year's rainy and stormy season is complicated, storms appearing at the end of the year often form super storms, so Yen Thanh district must strongly propagate to each locality and people to raise the spirit of proactively responding to bad weather, especially when storm No. 11 is approaching./.
