The effort was a major task for the agencies to better cope with natural disasters this year, he said. “Any officer who lacks knowledge of coping with natural disasters that lets any resident go hungry or thirsty during natural disasters, must take responsibility,” Phuc said. Although the country had made many efforts, the damage suffered from natural disasters was still huge, he said. Cuong said first, the committee would build a plan at both national and local levels to cope with natural disasters, with safety during natural disasters for public works included. In a related movement, the National Centre for Hydro-meteorological Centre warned that natural disasters’ developments this year would become more complicated.
