Since the night of June 8, Muong Khuong district has been experiencing continuous moderate to heavy rains. The rain has caused the soil to become saturated with water, weakening the structure and leading to landslides in many areas. Some roads have been temporarily cut off due to large-scale landslides.
Specifically, the road connecting Muong Khuong town to Simacai district, passing through Lung Pau village, Tung Chung Pho commune, had a landslide on the positive slope of National Highway 4D at Km197 with a volume of about 200 m3 .
On Provincial Road 154 (through Lung Khau Nhin commune), there was also a landslide with a volume of about 70 m3 .
In addition, the road from the center of Ban Lau commune to Na Loc village also had a positive slope landslide (section through Ta Lat slope), the volume of which has not been determined.
In addition, prolonged rain also caused the positive slope behind Lung Khau Nhin Kindergarten to collapse, causing mud to flow into the teachers' dormitory, kitchen, and school yard; the volume of the landslide was about 500 m3 .
Immediately after the disaster occurred, the District Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (the standing agency of the District Steering Committee for Natural Disaster Prevention and Control) coordinated with the People's Committees of communes and towns to inspect and count the damage, and effectively implemented the "4 on-site" motto to quickly overcome the consequences.
Currently, on National Highway 4D, the section passing through Lung Pau village, Tung Chung Pho commune, the Road Management Department is clearing landslides. At around 9 am, the excavator has made initial preparations, and cars can pass through. As for Provincial Highway 154, the construction unit is sending excavators to clear landslides.
At Lung Khau Nhin Kindergarten, the People's Committee of the commune has directed local forces to coordinate with the school to organize inspections, assess the risk of further landslides, and develop a plan to clear the landslides immediately after the rain stops, ensuring the safety of people and vehicles participating in overcoming the consequences.
