Tea Leng the pain is long … | News

The quiet place becomes a painful memory

The day his teacher took him to the landslide area, Le Thanh Tu (11th grade student, Nam Tra My Boarding School for Ethnic Minority Affairs) sat in a dumbfounded corner of the hillside, his eyes sore toward the pile of rocks. . “Right where the white tiles on the floor are exposed is where I usually sit and study. A little further on is the aquarium. And the other is the patio that every time I come home from school I see my father laughing … ”Tu pointed to the rest of the concrete block, avidly. He is the son of Tra Leng Commune Party Secretary Le Hoang Viet. Mr. Viet has not yet found his whereabouts. My mother was lucky enough to escape death, but now she is in awe, daring to return to the scene hoping to believe her husband.

Many of the people we met were crazy. Ms. Ho Thi Dieu and her son Ho Van Thang (fourth grade student) live in a small house along the hillside. On the day the landslide occurred, Mr. Thang was hit by a board in the face. Mrs. Dieu quickly brushed the board and got her son out of the house. When the fury of the mountains and hills passed, he returned to look for some clothes, a thin blanket and took his children to school to cry. Watching her walk while her son followed her, someone asked her, “What are you looking for?” “Looking for nothing. What else is there to find? “She replied and then took her son away as a lifeless person.

Future Tra Leng residents do not know where they will go after the landslide accident

The fear of “dropping” the word

Books with innocent calligraphy blurred by rainwater, mud-soaked books on the scene have touched the deepest corners of many people’s compassion. In the new school year, her parents bought 12-year-old Ho Thi Yen Chi many new books. “But now they are all buried … When can the baby kerchief go back to school?”, The girl luckily escaped death because the flood washed away the treetops around the old house that was full earthen.

The memories left at the scene made many people unable to hold back their tears

Immediately concerned for the students in grade 11, who would soon end their lives and enter college, Vice Principal Ho Minh Vuong blurted out: “Now they have nowhere to live, no dad, mom, the school is too blind That the branches and the generators come together to help them have a small home so they can have a place to return to. For each day they have a place to light incense sticks to commemorate their father, mother … ”. It is also the expectation of director Tran Thanh Quoc, when he thinks about the case of the 3 Ho Thi Diep brothers. “Diep’s brother is at Hue University, the 9th grade younger brother was lucky to escape but was seriously injured. In just a few minutes, the landslide took away both Diep’s father and mother. We returned the children to the smoking incense that gives them cramps in their hearts, ”said Mr. Quoc, moved.

Loving the Diep brothers and sisters, Mr. Quoc decided that the school would adopt two sisters, transfer his younger brother to study in the center of the district, and fix a small room to live in. “Two sisters live together to avoid being alone without parents and teachers are also convenient to care for. In the long run, they also have to have a house to live in and incense for their parents, but now it’s too difficult … ”Mr Quoc said sadly.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Hue, Chairperson of the Vietnam Homeland Front Committee, H. Nam Tra My, said that meals, clothing and immediate accommodation for those who escaped death were guaranteed by the commune authorities and the district, but there were termites. other concerns… “I strongly ask for direct cash assistance for households. When the road is over, when the families have buried the victims, the commune and district authorities will guide the people to rebuild their lives, ”said Ms. Hue.
