VND, exports hit 505 million USD, and public investment disbursement ratio was
70 percent.

the reality, creating motivation for the completion of local socio-economic
goals.

the policy of merging and completing organisation of residential units, while
reviewing the unmet targets to have specific solutions.
Sectors and localities should strictly conduct the
direction of the Chairman of the People’s Committee on implementing tasks after

The air is thick with the hum of drills and the clatter of machinery as the Hoa Binh – Moc Chau expressway takes shape amid the rugged terrain. Welding sparks illuminate the faces of workers, and concrete mixers churn relentlessly, laying fresh pavement on the newly-carved road. The construction site buzzes with a palpable sense of urgency, particularly in Hoa Binh province where the expressway's future is being forged.
