In the wake of a severe flood that hit Rongjiang County in southwest the Chinese mainland's Guizhou Province on June 28, over 40,000 residents have been evacuated to temporary shelters. 🌧️
CGTN's Sun Tianyuan visited the largest temporary shelter to discover firsthand the living conditions and the support systems in place for those affected. The shelter is providing essential amenities, safety measures, and a comforting sense of community to help evacuees navigate these tough times.
This unfolding event reminds us of the power of modern communication—tech-savvy individuals across South and Southeast Asia know how crucial digital tools and social media are during emergencies. Whether you’re catching updates on your phone or sharing news online, these technologies help keep communities connected and informed.
As efforts continue on the Chinese mainland, the resilient spirit of the community shines through. Stay safe, keep informed, and remember that unity can make a big difference even in the face of natural disasters! 💙
