Floodwaters flooded into some areas of the city center and district capital, causing local division in many residential areas. In mountainous areas, especially Son Tay commune, landslides became complicated because the soil was full of water after many days of rain, and this is an area with weak soil, landslides often occur every year. According to initial statistics, floods flooded over 5,200 houses, 4 houses completely collapsed, 40 houses were damaged, about 2,500 m of roads, and 19 structures were eroded; Many canals and domestic water works were also damaged. Lieutenant Colonel Huynh Kim Hai, Deputy Commander of the Military Command of Quang Ngai province, said that the military force maintained 100% duty, organizing duty at flooded points to prevent people from passing through, ensuring life safety and limiting damage to crops. The military forces coordinated with local authorities to propagate and mobilize people, especially lonely elderly people, to go to identified storm shelters. The Provincial Military Command has mobilized more than 5,703 officers and soldiers to participate in the response. When the water receded, over 200 officers and soldiers participated in overcoming the consequences, gathering in Binh Minh, Binh Duong and Binh Chau communes, prioritizing health stations and schools to soon stabilize peoples lives.

Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha asked Quang Ngai province to focus on reviewing and re-evaluating the entire response plan, specifically determining which areas and who is responsible for direction and administration; how to arrange forces, vehicles, logistics, healthcare, electricity, water and food in each situation. Plans must be specific to each point, each force and each person, to avoid confusion when an incident occurs. From there, learn from experience and gradually standardize plans so that when situations occur, forces deploy promptly and effectively. Regarding the work of overcoming landslides on national highways, Director of Quang Ngai Department of Construction Nguyen Phuc Nhan said that in the province there are nearly 200 landslides, while maintenance and motorized means are still limited, so the recovery work faces many difficulties. To date, basically about 83-84% of routes have been initially cleared; There are still 3 routes with 13 landslides that are still being processed. The Department of Construction is mobilizing forces and equipment, striving to create a clearance for initial traffic tomorrow, but there are still potential risks due to geology and slope failure. Quang Ngai is concentrating means and forces to overcome some serious landslides on Provincial Road 623, causing division and isolation of part of Son Tay commune; Inter-village road clearance due to a landslide on a large hill in Ngoc Linh is dividing 5 villages. The Deputy Prime Minister noted that some landslides are at risk of continuing to develop complicatedly, requiring a careful survey of the terrain, geology, slope, soil structure, calculating appropriate construction solutions such as planting vegetation cover, concreting slopes, arranging drainage systems and structures to retain slopes. These solutions are intended to ensure long-term safety, instead of just temporary handling to clear the route in the short term. Quang Ngai provinces leaders also acknowledged that the coordination of support for reserve forces and the army for some urgent points was not timely, and said they had learned from experience. Quang Ngai province proposed that the Central Government support food and necessities to provide relief to people in the affected areas and environmental sanitation after the water recedes, including: 5,000 tons of rice, 10,000 boxes of instant noodles, 2 tons of dry food, 100 medical drugs, 5,000 kg of Chloramin B; At the same time, it is proposed to review and classify landslides, identify priority treatment points, combine temporary construction of routes and prepare long-term landslide prevention and embankment projects. The Deputy Prime Minister said that natural conditions have changed, requiring a more proactive and long-term approach in responding to extreme natural disasters; Focus on two directions: Increase the resilience of infrastructure, especially mountainous traffic and irrigation; At the same time, build an adaptive model to ensure people maintain safe living even in flood conditions. The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that this historic natural disaster is a test to review the overall way of managing natural disaster risks. We have to live with natural disasters but we must be proactive, have science, have tools, and have scenarios to proactively and sustainably cope - Photo: VGP/Minh KhoiTest to review the overall way to manage natural riskstaiOn behalf of the Party and State leaders, the Deputy Prime Minister expressed his deep sympathy for the heavy damage caused by heavy rains, flash floods, and landslides on a large scale, affecting from mountainous areas to plains and coastal areas.
