After many efforts, a new resettlement area was established in Co Phao village (Yen Na commune) to relocate these households to stabilize their lives. Photo: Dao Tho |

| With a total of 22 plots of land divided, currently 6 households have come to build houses to live. Some households that have not been affected much have made use of the remaining wood. However, according to Mr. Vi Van Thanh, due to the hasty demolition process, most of the houses were severely damaged. Photo: Dao Tho |

| Some households like Vi Van Duong, Luong Van Nui... had their houses completely washed away so they had to use bamboo and rattan to make temporary shelter. Photo: Dao Tho |

| Stabilizing life in the new resettlement area still has many difficulties, but most households here said that they are more secure because they are not afraid of floods like in previous years. Photo: Dao Tho |

| Mr. Luong Van Nui's family said that his house was completely swept away by the flood, and he and his wife had to move to a temporary place. When they were relocated here, they had to work further away from their old home, so they had to build a full garden to earn a living. Photo: Dinh Tuan |

| Currently, the biggest difficulty here is still electricity and water. Mr. Lo Van Son said that every day they have to share about 3-4 buckets of water for each family to cook and bathe. Photo: Dinh Tuan |
