Many opinions revolved around the incident as well as the progress of rescuing the baby. However, as the leader of Dong Thap province acknowledged, this is a "rare, unprecedented incident" associated with many objective and subjective factors.

Regarding the case of a 10-year-old boy falling on a concrete pillar 35m deep, he did not survive, on the afternoon of January 5, Mr. Doan Tan Buu - Vice Chairman of Dong Thap Provincial People's Committee, said that a delegation of Japanese experts had visited the site to survey. and give a feasible plan, but the equipment here is not enough. Mr. Buu said that on the afternoon of January 5, the rescue and rescue forces were present throughout the scene, but the rescue was not completed due to technical difficulties and obstacles. .

Recently, after surveying, the team of experts came up with a plan to remove Hao Nam's body from the concrete pipe, the rescue technique is feasible, but the equipment is incomplete, so it cannot be done. Specifically, Japanese experts suggested using a steel pipe with a larger diameter than concrete piles to be brought down to a depth of 24m, continuing to take out all the soil inside.

After that, the rescuer will bring down the cable and tie it to the three ends of the pile next to the joints, connecting to a shaft with the upright steel pillar next to it, forming a straight pull by hydraulic jacks. "This is just an option proposed by a delegation of Japanese experts after surveying the accident scene. However, Dong Thap has not yet implemented this option.

We are still working on the option to widen the crater tens of meters around the concrete pipe, to reduce the pressure on the first section. When taking up the first paragraph, the next option will be calculated. The reason is that this concrete pile is about 5m away from the canal. If you want to drill down, you must have a very large ground, estimated at about 60m", Mr. Buu said.

Many opinions revolved around the incident as well as the progress of rescuing the baby. However, as the leader of Dong Thap province acknowledged, this is a "rare, unprecedented incident" associated with many objective and subjective factors.

Vice Chairman of Dong Thap Provincial People's Committee said that in recent days, the locality has received many suggestions in the rescue of a boy who fell on a concrete pillar on December 31, 2022. In particular, Japanese experts were invited to the scene to survey and assess the current situation to come up with the best solution in the spirit of bringing the boy's body to the ground soon.

"They also proposed a feasible rescue technique, but the equipment here is not enough. Currently, expert groups are continuing to discuss choosing the optimal option, suitable to the conditions, capacity and equipment. Because of this, the work of bringing the concrete pillars to the ground is somewhat slower than expected," said Mr. Buu.

Mr. Buu confirmed: Currently, the locality is mobilizing some more vehicles and machinery, including a 120-ton crane from other places to the scene for backup. However, due to the terrain of the field, transporting the equipment encountered many difficulties.

Regarding the location where Hao Nam was stuck, according to Mr. Buu, the first part of the concrete cylinder was less likely to get stuck. Rescuers judged that the baby was stuck in the second section and was investigating. Lieutenant Colonel Tran Van Gioi, Deputy Captain of the Fire and Rescue Task Team - Fire Department and Police Department of Dong Thap Province said: When approaching the scene, there are many options, in which There is a special rope drop on the concrete pile to pull the baby up. However, the diameter of the concrete pile was too small, the victim was stuck and the rescuers could not access to thread the rope over the person, so this option could not be implemented.

The public wondered how a 10-year-old child could fall on a concrete pillar with such a small diameter, it was an impossible story! But, the construction camera of the Roc Sen bridge shows that the truth has taken place. The 10-year-old boy, weighing just over 20kg, fell on a concrete pile 35m deep.

At the accident site in Phu Loi commune, according to many local people, during the construction process, the construction unit had ropes around the construction site, but because the bridge was located close to the road and next to the people's fields. so sometimes a few people go to work in the fields, children entering the construction site is unexpected.
