Assessing super typhoon Yagi, the Prime Minister pointed out that this is a historic storm with the following factors: Very high intensity, gusting up to level 17; high speed, great destruction; very wide range; many impacted objects (people, property, crops, livestock, economic and social infrastructure); long bombing time on land over a large area...

At this point, the Prime Minister choked up and burst into tears several times.

Analyzing the causes of the storm's huge consequences, the Prime Minister said that besides objective causes, there is still a situation where some people are still subjective and have not strictly and fully complied with the instructions and recommendations of the authorities.

Leadership and direction are not resolute in some places and at some times; means and equipment for disaster response and rescue work do not meet requirements...

Emphasizing some lessons learned, the Prime Minister pointed out the need to closely follow the situation and make accurate forecasts; propaganda and mobilization work must be quick, timely, and widespread; and direction must be timely, accurate, appropriate, and effective.

Ministries, branches, localities and all levels must be proactive and active with "3 before, 4 on-site" in preventing and overcoming consequences.

"We have tried our best. We have found the best possible solution, we have found what is left in what is lost... But the irreplaceable loss is the lives and spirits of the people, the families whose loved ones died," the Prime Minister was moved.

On behalf of the Party and State leaders, the Prime Minister acknowledged, highly appreciated and commended the ministries, branches, provinces and cities for showing great responsibility, great efforts, and drastic actions to do the best they could; thanked the people for joining hands with the Party Committees, authorities, and functional forces, especially the military and police forces.

At the same time, the Prime Minister requested to do a good job of emulation and reward for organizations and individuals who have done well, especially those who have sacrificed while performing their duties; criticize and strictly handle cases of subjectivity, negligence, and failure to complete tasks.
