Since the flood season, typhoons “Dusuri” and “Kanu” have successively traveled northward, and Shulan City in northern Jilin has been severely affected. At present, the disaster-stricken areas are scrambling for progress, focusing on reconstruction, and accelerating the restoration of production and living order.

In the past two days, the No. 3 Middle School of Shulan City started school as scheduled. All 581 students in the school arrived at the school normally, and the teaching work was carried out in an orderly manner. Not long ago, this was the largest resettlement site in Shulan City during this round of flood situation.

“In order to ensure that the school starts as scheduled, the school organized all teachers to return to school in advance, comprehensively carried out work such as campus dredging, infrastructure repair, disinfection and disinfection, and lesson preparation for the new semester, and increased sanitation and disinfection efforts in key areas such as dormitories and canteens.” Shu Sun Guomin, principal of Lanzhou No.3 Middle School, said.

It is understood that at present, all 55 public primary and secondary schools and kindergartens in Shulan City have started school as scheduled.

“Before the start of the school year, the Shulan City Education Bureau organized all schools to conduct a survey of all students to understand the disaster situation of each student’s family. No one was unable to return to school as scheduled due to the disaster or family life difficulties.” Deputy Director of the Shulan City Education Bureau Yuan Shukun said.

In order to speed up the post-disaster housing reconstruction work, the post-disaster reconstruction headquarters of Shulan City dispatched multiple large-scale machinery and equipment to promptly demolish the dilapidated houses that had been solicited from the farmers and needed to be demolished.

After the staff investigated and understood the damage on the spot, they wanted to demolish and rebuild my damaged house. I This is the peace of mind.” said Hu Zhongyu, a villager in Mofan Village, Kaiyuan Town, Shulan City.

The house of Zhang Chunzhu, a villager in Mofan Village, Kaiyuan Town, Shulan City, is also being rebuilt. “The foundation is much higher than before. The government subsidized tens of thousands of yuan and even hired a construction team. The new house must be very safe,” Zhang Chunzhu said.

Now the houses of the affected villagers have begun to be rebuilt. The lives of the villagers After gradually returning to normal, I still have the confidence to continue to open the supermarket.” Zou Tieying said. (Reporters Ma Xiaocheng, Wei Meng)
