In 2025, natural disasters and extreme weather swept from north to south, with preliminary estimates of economic losses reaching VND100,000 billion (US$4 billion). River flood warnings should translate alarm levels into projected inundation depths in residential areas. Investments are needed to install camera-based real-time water level monitoring at reservoirs and along river systems, combined with flood scenario modeling based on historical data and meteorological forecasts. In 2025, we formed a temporary “Three-Region Disaster Response Team” of around 50 members, including boat operators, drone pilots and logistics personnel. Only by safeguarding ecosystems can we protect our living space in harmony with nature.
