For more than 20 years that I've lived here, I've never seen such historic flooding."
My house's first floor is completely under the water,
People are moving their belongings and vehicles as quickly as they can,
On behalf of the Government of Singapore, I extend my heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims, and my sincere sympathies to all those whose lives have been affected,
I am very sorry to hear of the serious impact of Typhoon Yagi, which has resulted in the tragic loss of lives and severe damage in northern Vietnam,
I didn't think the water would rise as quick as it did. I moved because if the water had risen just a bit higher, it would have been very difficult for us to leave,
Now we have no fresh water and electricity,
Authorities are mobilizing forces to approach the landslide area to continue the search for survivors,
We are bringing them to public buildings turned into temporary shelters or they can stay with relatives. There has been so much rain and the water is rising quickly,
Water currents are still strong,
This is the worst flood I have seen in 30 years,
My home is now part of the river,
People were moving frantically, moving their motorbikes, relocating items,
Many of them are gone with the wind,
Many businesses had their roofs blown off, some walls were torn and collapsed, gates, fences, signs, camera systems, garages and sliding metal doors were overturned, water flooded into factories,
It’s the most deadly landslide caused by the typhoon so far,
I have to leave everything behind as the water is rising too fast,
I felt like I was drowned to the bottom of the river,
Water levels on the Red River are rising rapidly,
I have lost everything, all gone,
