After every heavy rain lasting about 1 hour, the road between Block 7 and Block 9 of Tan Ky town is like a river running through it, flooded up to 40-50 cm. |
 |
Many people using bicycles and motorbikes had to find ways to travel on sidewalks and roadsides. Many motorbikes on the road had their engines stalled. |
 |
When the water rises, people have to use whatever they can, such as wood, plastic beer crates, etc., to block the door to prevent water from flooding into their homes. The owner of a grocery store in Block 7, Tan Ky town, said: "For the past 5 years since I moved here, every year is the same. Whenever it rains heavily, water and trash flood into my house. I have to use objects to block the door and use a broom to sweep away the water." |
 |
According to local residents, the roads have large drains to drain water, but they have been filled and blocked, making the flooding worse. It will take 2-3 days for the water to drain completely. |
 |
The road section in Block 3, Tan Ky town was also flooded 30-40 cm. Heavy rain made it difficult for vehicles to travel, water flooded into houses and restaurants on both sides of the road. |
