VTV.vn - Floods have come to the fields of the Mekong Delta.

Thanks to the floodwater, local people are happy and make good money from the late flood season. However, many people are thinking about the future and the risks ahead. 2019 is considered to be a year of extreme weather. The dry season in 2020 is likely to be difficult for people in the Mekong Delta.

According to the forecast of An Giang Hydrometeorology Station, the water level in the upstream area will be decreasing over the next few days. This has increased concerns about the risk of salinity and drought and will reach areas that haven't been affected yet.
