VNPT people "overcome floods, keep the waves" and support the transportation of necessities to people in flooded areas

Heavy rains caused Ky Son, Tuong Duong, Con Cuong (Nghe An) to be submerged in floodwaters. Flash floods and landslides occurred everywhere, many villages were completely isolated, and communications and power grids were locally interrupted.

VNPT green-covered trucks go upstream to support the transportation of relief goods, clean water, and necessities to people in difficulty.

Although the water has begun to recede, the roads are still covered in mud, traffic is paralyzed, and people's lives are facing many difficulties.

In that situation, with a proactive spirit, VNPT Nghe An has activated a disaster response plan in a drastic, systematic and urgent manner. As soon as there was a forecast of heavy rain and floods, the unit had a detailed plan, clearly assigned tasks, was on duty 24/7, and at the same time fully prepared means and materials such as backup generators, cables, connectors, construction tool kits, raincoats, life buoys, etc. and mobile vehicles to be ready to access all areas, including isolated areas.

As soon as the water showed signs of receding, on July 23, VNPT Nghe An leaders were present at Highway 7 to direct rescue and troubleshooting work. Meanwhile, technical staff at telecommunications centers did not mind the heavy rain and danger, many people had to walk kilometers, wade through streams, and climb passes to reach the points where communication was lost.

As of the morning of July 25, the power grid is still widely out. Some lines in Tuong Duong have started to have electricity, but in Ky Son, the entire area is still out of power.

Although traffic is not yet clear, travel is still difficult, and many points are congested, VNPT has deployed technical forces to Ky Son, Tuong Duong, and Con Cuong to support transmission and customer subscription processing. In areas that are isolated due to floods, VNPT also cooperates with other network operators to open roaming.

As soon as the water showed signs of receding, VNPT's technical team set out to reach the points where communication was lost.

Late at noon, with quick meals with colleagues, the VNPT blue shirts still enthusiastically continued their journey of sharing. Regardless of the harsh sun after the rain or slippery roads, VNPT officers and employees in Ky Son, Tuong Duong, Con Cuong also participated in supporting local authorities, transporting relief goods, clean water, and necessities to people in difficulty.

The green VNPT trucks go against the flood, filled with love. Each box of noodles and bottle of water delivered is not only a material thing, but also a heart of sharing from VNPT people with the community in times of trouble.
