Floods also killed one person in Phu Loc town, Hue City and submerged nearly 10,000 houses.

Nguyen Van Ty, president of Quang Nam-Da nang Railway Management Company, said the railroad running through Hai Van Pass was re-opened on the evening of November 20 and the Pass was cleared after 10-hour of traffic congestion. 

However, huge mud and rock flows blocked the north-south railway again on the morning of November 21. Many trains had to stop at Kim Lien and Da Nang stations waiting for a solution to the incident.
