At the same time, Comrade Phan Duc Dong requested that the Vinh City People's Committee urgently implement and review plans to ensure the safety of people's lives and property. Relevant departments need to coordinate well with wards and communes to implement plans and deploy forces to carry out necessary tasks when heavy rain and storms hit Vinh City.
