The same day, the National Assembly held a memorial service for residents who lost their lives during the recent storms and floods, while also launching a fundraising campaign to support affected communities in their recovery efforts.
National Assembly Vice Chairman Do Van Chien said that the historic downpours and subsequent flooding had inflicted devastating damage across the central region, particularly in Gia Lai, Dak Lak, Khanh Hoa, Lam Dong and several other provinces.
Despite the concerted efforts of the Party, State and armed forces to prevent and mitigate natural disasters, heavy rainfall, strong winds and rapidly rising floodwaters resulted in significant losses, he said.
On behalf of the Party, State, Viet Nam Fatherland Front and the National Assembly, Do extended heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims, noting that solidarity and mutual support have always been core values of the Vietnamese people.
He also acknowledged and commended the army, police and local forces for their tireless and courageous efforts in rescue and relief operations.

Responding to the appeal, NA Chairman Tran Thanh Man, Vice Chairpersons and other deputies made contributions to the relief fund.
