As Tuoi Tre pointed out, many people in Quang Ngai have yet to find corrugated iron and tiles to re-roof their roofs. Some households have to go to Binh Dinh to shop.

Quang Ngai: many products are in short supply

Ms. Vo Thi Cho (Nghia Ha Commune, Quang Ngai City) said, “Roof tile costs VND 25,000 / piece. Compared to the previous time, the price is VND 5,000 / piece higher. But to buy it , my son has to run to the tile kiln. brought home. “

The rarest are the coastal areas because many houses are roofed. At a corrugated iron workshop in Quang Ngai City, the owner of the workshop said, “When we come across a piece of corrugated iron, people get that piece right away. The machine works at full capacity, but it still can’t fulfill it. In terms of price, we basically sell, as before the storm, without taking advantage of the people’s price axis. “

Meanwhile, green vegetables are becoming an urgent commodity because the largest vegetable basket in Quang Ngai province along the Tra Khuc River has been completely damaged by storms and floods. Vegetable growers abandon their fields and wait for the rain, storm and floods to reproduce.

In Quang Ngai market, green vegetables are in short supply, traders rely on the quantity imported to determine prices for supplies. A small trader said: “The vegetables are just waiting for the supply from Da Lat. We don’t have to sell at high prices, but the capital we buy is also higher than normal.”

Faced with a shortage of essential materials such as corrugated iron and roof tiles, the Quang Ngai Province People’s Committee is considering proposing to neighboring towns to support people to re-roof their roofs and fix their lives soon.

Quang Nam: people share with each other

On the afternoon of November 1, the landscape in the residential areas of the road connecting Dai Loc District with Ka Dan Commune (Dong Giang District, Quang Nam) was still flooded with sandy soil.

After the storm, many homes suffered damage to their houses, the demand for roofing sheets, bricks and steel increased, but Tuoi Tre’s track record showed that material prices did not increase.

In Dai Lanh commune (Dai Loc district), the manager of the Duc Nhan building materials store located next to the new Ha Tan bridge said that the source of the goods brought here from Da Nang city is very stable, so people want to buy whatever they want. granted. Steel prices have risen slightly compared to before, but the corrugated iron roof has not changed.

Similarly, in Prao City in Dong Giang District, sources of building materials, especially roofing sheets, are still abundant in stores, people take advantage of the purchase to rebuild houses, and the prices are not enough. increase compared to before the storm.

A poignant story about the exchange of people in flooded areas is that when there is a shortage of workers, the people in the flooded villages voluntarily help each other where they can. Bling Phan’s house in Pa Dau 1 village, Thanh My (Nam Giang) town collapsed on the afternoon of September 28, a day later, all the villagers voluntarily came to build their house. People also told each other to contribute nails and honor to help Phan have a place to live on rainy days.

A leader from the Quang Nam Province Department of Industry and Commerce said he asked local market managers to strictly monitor and manage the situation where stores took advantage of the storms to increase the prices of building materials, especially. roofing sheets. As a result, until now, Quang Nam has not recorded the status of building materials prices “blowing”.

The prime minister asked to quickly bring corrugated iron and tiles to the people.

In the work to overcome the consequences of Typhoon No. 9 and search and rescue that were carried out on the afternoon of November 1, Quang Ngai Province also reported a lack of sheets and tiles affecting the recovery of the Storm No. 9. General Nguyen Xuan Phuc asked Industry and Commerce Minister Tran Tuan Anh to work with large companies and suppliers to quickly get corrugated iron and roof tiles to people in the center of the storm. At the same time, the Prime Minister called for ensuring price stability, not letting the phenomenon of taking advantage of high demand, but raising prices, create more difficulties for people.
