This was the biggest storm which local people in Khanh Hoa encountered over the last decades. 

Noticeably, as the province rarely coped with storm, local residents used to have subjective psychology and weak responsive skills.

Over the last 20 days, after the storm hit the province, there has been numerous tasks.  

PM Phuc visited Van Lang Secondary School at Van Ninh district and Ninh Ich Health Clinic at Ninh Hoa town. These two facilities were badly hit. The Government chief praised the facilities for making primary repair to provide educational and healthcare services for people. He tasked the local authorities of Khanh Hoa to support damaged sites to overcome difficulties. 

The Government chief also inspected a fish port and surrounding maritime area at Van Gia town, Van Ninh district in which over 800 vessels were submerged and destroyed. 

He led the delegation to inspect Khatoco garment factory which suffered serious damage worth of VND 12 billion. 

After the fact-finding tour, PM Phuc would meet with local leaders on policies and measures to overcome the 12th tropical storm consequences./.
