While in Quang Ngai province, the “warm house” program was carried out by the provincial youth union, provincial Party Committee’s Board for Mass Mobilization, and the organizing board of Miss Vietnam 2020 to support local people to weather the consequences of storm Molave.
Some 1.2 billion VND was presented to the province to repair houses for families having their accommodations collapsed in the storm.
Thirteen people were injured, 325 houses were damaged, and over 140,000 houses having their roofs blown away due to the impacts of Molave.
