This afternoon, after the water receded from the floor, the couple used a water hose to spray the mud out. The wet and muddy objects were cleaned and dried before being brought into the house.
"The entire flock of 15 chickens died because they were not caught and kept high up. What I am most worried about now is the 1 sao of winter corn that is knee-high and has been submerged by floodwaters for the past 2 days. If they die, all the care will be in vain," said Mr. Ha Van Tan.
At Dien Nam Kindergarten, Ky Tan Commune, this afternoon, local authorities also mobilized forces to support cleaning classrooms and teaching and learning equipment. Teacher Thai Thi Ly - Vice Principal of Dien Nam Kindergarten said: In general, teaching equipment and supplies were proactively placed high up by the school, so they were not affected.

It was difficult for the teaching staff to clean up in one session, so the commune and hamlet mobilized forces to support cleaning and wiping down teaching equipment. Therefore, as the water receded, the cleaning was done, and teaching equipment was quickly repositioned.
