I hope you will continue to uphold unity and Quang Binh’s heroic tradition to overcome the aftermath of natural disasters,” said Mr. Phuc.
Working with central region leaders, Prime Minister Phuc praised the efforts made by authorities, agencies, the military and police in protecting people’s lives and assets.
“There are several things we must do immediately including environmental sanitation and disease prevention. No one should be left hunger and homeless.
