Despite of stress, tiredness, the investor and Project Management Board as well as implementing and monitoring units have to try their best, forgetting how the time and weather is, to complete the project as scheduled. Finally, the 500kV Phu My – Song May T/L was energized timely at 21h35 on September 30th 2013, which is 10 hours ahead the commencement of 55 day-night campaign.
The happiness comes to me as if I work in power sector, I phoned to congratulate Mr. Tran Quoc Lam – Vice President of National Power Transmission Corporation (EVNNPT). I thought he would be very happy. On the contrary, I heard a hoarse tongue from him “Mr. Le Ngoc Liem (from the Southern Power Projects Management Board (SPMB) stroked at the site (at Tan Thanh district, Ba Ria Vung Tau province). Mr. Liem is a potential, active and responsible head of division. The project at site is in the middle of highest stress. This will be a big pain not only for his family, but also for EVNNPT”.
It petrified us that recently he took pains and spent most of his time in the site to check the final section of T/L before energizing. But now…
Mr. Le Ngoc Liem – Head of Technical Division of SPMB is an exemplary party member, who is active in daily life, reliable in the works, with honest, outspoken and whole-heart enthusiasm .
I met Mr. Liem for few times, I knew that his homeland is in Quang Ngai province, he is now the head of Technical Division of SPMB. He was born in 1964, his wife is working in Ho Chi Minh Tax Department. He has two sons, the older one is 14 years old, the younger one is 8 years old. It is said that he has a prehistoric blood pressure, but he spent most of time in the site, so he knows how to take care of himself. However, he has recently worked too hard, making him failed to overcome the border of “age of 49 – one of the unlucky ages as thought by people”. Despite all the best solutions have been applied by the hospital, he gave the final breath at 5h30 on October 2nd 2013, left behind a young wife and 2 children, left unfinished many aspiration to conquer the transmission lines that he expects so far.
The colleagues assessed that Mr. Liem is an exemplary party member, he is active in the life, reliable in the work, with honest, outspoken and and whole-heart enthusiasm. He outstandingly loves his wife and children at home, while is willing to guide and assist the younger technical colleagues at work. During 14 working years, he participated in the construction management of over 230 projects on transmission lines and substations at 110kV to 500kV voltage level. With the current positions such as Head of Technical Division of SPMB, Standing Member of Council on project commissioning, his opinions are important for deciding the energizing of the Southern projects such as: the 500kV substations of Tan Dinh, O Mon, Dak Nong, Song May, Vinh Tan and the 500kV transmission lines of Nha Be – O Mon, Song May – Tan Dinh, Vinh Tan – Song May, Phu My – Song May, etc...
With his efforts, Mr. Liem has been granted by Ministry of Industry and Trade, the People’s Committees of Binh Duong, Dak Nong provinces and Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam Electricity (EVN), EVNNPT with many certificates of merit, title on emulation member. In 2011, he was granted a Certificate of merit by the Prime Minister.
We understand that the success of 55 day-night campaign has been contributed considerably by the 500kV Phu My – Song May T/L project, including his valuable service. Once again, let’s bow our heads in the memory of him. We know that, from the deep soil, his soul remains a close follow-up of the development of the power transmission line projects. His soul will live forever with transmission line projects.
