The governmental leader demanded that the ministers of national defense and public security order related units to actively work with the affected localities to quickly deliver food, essential supplies, and clean water to residents in isolated areas and those in need as soon as possible in order to quickly stabilize economic activities and people's life, ensure no one is left hungry, cold, homeless, or without clean water or health care, and enable students to soon go back to school.
