(HBO) – Authorities have reported a shortage of petrol supply in certain localities across the country recently. However, thanks to timely actions by relevant forces and the key businesses, fuel supply in Hoa Binh province has still been guaranteed.
A gas station of the Hoa Binh branch of the Vietnam National Petroleum Group (Petrolimex) on Cu Chinh Lan road in Dong Tien ward, Hoa Binh city, publicises new petrol prices.
From 3pm on February 11, petrol prices in Vietnam increased sharply to an eight-year high. Accordingly, prices of E5 RON 92 were raised by 980 VND per litre to the maximum of 24,570 VND per litre, RON 95 by 960 VND to 25,320 VND, diesel by 960 VND to 19,860 VND, kerosene by 960 VND to 18,750 VND, and mazut by 660 VND per kg to 17,650 VND per kg.
To prevent some gas stations from keeping fuel to wait for price hikes, which may lead to shortages, and to guarantee uninterrupted petrol supply for the local market, relevant forces from the province’s Department of Industry and Trade and market surveillance division have taken many measures, including setting up teams to examine fuel trading businesses.
Nguyen Ba Thuc, head of the market surveillance division, said the division issued Document No. 76/CQLTT-NVTH on January 31, 2022 to enhance management, carry out specific measures, make plans, and coordinate with relevant agencies to inspect fuel trading units so as to detect and deal with wrongdoings in a timely and stringent manner.
The Department of Industry and Trade also sent a document to the district-level People’s Committees, the market surveillance division, and fuel traders and distributors, asking them to ensure local gas stations’ timely and sufficient supply of all types of petrol for the market.
At present, there are 12 petrol distributing businesses with 178 outlets in Hoa Binh province. Among them, the Hoa Binh branch of Petrolimex holds the biggest market share, 50 - 55 percent. It is running 26 gas stations in all the 10 district-level localities in the province./.

Red grapefruit is a native crop of Tan Lac district, where the fertile soil and favourable climate create ideal conditions for its growth. With over 80% of the area being mountainous, at an altitude of 300-400 metres above sea level, red grapefruits here thrive on well-drained, fertile hillside soil. The region’s large temperature variation between day and night enhances the fruit's nutrient absorption. The local cultivation techniques also contribute to its uniqueness
