Currently, Wako & Ueno Company (VSIP Industrial Park) has contacted factory repair units to quickly fix the problem, however, it will take at least 1 month to partially fix it. The repair cost for the business is also very high.
The Economic Zone Trade Union is still counting the losses from the units. Initial estimates show that nearly 100 enterprises in the Industrial Park suffered damage from storm No. 3, estimated at thousands of billions of VND.
Be proactive to minimize damage.
According to the reporter's records at Nam Cau Kien Industrial Park, the initial damage recorded was basically broken trees, factories in the industrial park only suffered local damage, but not much, not affecting production activities too much.

“It only takes 2-3 days for businesses in our industrial park to resume normal production activities,” said Mr. Hoang Tuan Anh, General Director of Shinec Joint Stock Company, the investor of Nam Cau Kien Industrial Park.
For example, at Dongbang Vina Co., Ltd., only a few glass doors were blown away and some screws on the roof were loose. Or at Kim Khi Viet Joint Stock Company, a few sides of the factory were blown away and a little of the roof was blown away. The representative of Gola Lion Webbing Vina Company only suffered damage to trees. Vanderleun Vietnam Co., Ltd. was not much affected, some logo letters were blown away, some rooms were flooded...
As one of the enterprises in Nam Cau Kien Industrial Park that was less affected by storm No. 3, Mr. Le Duc Oanh, Deputy Director of GGV Company and Project Director of GGV Constructions, said: "The situation after the storm shows that the company's constructions are stable, with no serious damage to people and property."

Standing member of the storm prevention committee No. 3, Mr. Hoang Minh Trong, Head of the Security Department, in charge of security issues of Nam Cau Kien Industrial Park, said: “When there was information that the storm would enter the East Sea, all security forces and guards in Nam Cau Kien Industrial Park went to each enterprise in the industrial park to instruct on storm prevention, reinforce factories, roofs, and tie down trees. Therefore, after the storm, the damage recorded in our industrial park was not severe.”
Mr. Trong also added that there was no flooding at the industrial park because the drainage system had been upgraded by us before. In addition, the company also coordinated with the irrigation company to drain water when the tide was low, so there was no flooding.
According to Mr. Le Duc Oanh, there are three important factors that help minimize damage to businesses in Nam Cau Kien Industrial Park when the storm comes. “First, we received early notice from Shinec Joint Stock Company about the storm and the storm prevention requirements. Next, the company's storm prevention team has been closely coordinating with the security forces in the investor's industrial park. Finally, during the storm, GGV Company closely coordinated with Shinec to implement measures to protect the project and minimize damage, ensuring that all safety requirements are fully implemented,” Mr. Oanh affirmed.
According to information from the Nam Cau Kien Industrial Park Management Board, in just 2 days at most, the entire industrial park will be cleaned up, ensuring safe and normal traffic in the industrial park. Currently, Shinec Joint Stock Company has sent officers and employees to each enterprise to record the consequences and work with investors in the industrial park to fix the problem to soon stabilize production.
