(Hanoi = Yonhap News) Correspondent Kim Bum-soo = Vietnamese authorities finally sought help from Japanese experts after they had difficulty lifting a concrete pillar that killed a 10-year-old boy after he fell.
According to VN Express, a local media, on the 7th, Japanese disaster relief experts arrived the day before in Dongtap province in the southern part of the country to help with the lifting of pillars.
After visiting the crash site, they explained that they first had to inject water around the pillars with steel pipes to weaken the soil around them, and then dig the ground.
Once this work was completed, it was proposed to connect the cables to the three parts of the column and to lift it using a hydraulic jack.
However, due to lack of equipment, it will take time to start work, said Doan Tan Vu Dong Thap province deputy governor.
Seven days ago, at a bridge construction site near 857 provincial road in Dong Thap province, 10-year-old Tai Li Hao-nam fell against a concrete pillar buried underground while collecting scrap metal with his neighbors .
The concrete pillar is 35 m long and has a diameter of 25 cm.
In response, Dongtap provincial authorities launched a rescue operation, but eventually called off the rescue operation after announcing that the boy was presumed dead five days after the accident.
However, he has announced that he will continue to lift concrete pillars to recover the body.
“I will definitely lift the concrete pillar to find the body,” Deputy Minister Boo said.
An official from Dongtapseong said, “The pillar was so deeply embedded in the ground and the diameter was so small that it was difficult to save.” “There was a lack of rescue equipment, experience and experts.”
