Notably,
the PM announced the decision to set up a special working group headed by
Deputy Prime Minister Truong Hoa Binh, to focus on addressing the current
pressing issues including complaints made by the people.
PM
Phuc also urged government members to continue to discuss and gather ideas on
Resolution No.01, on the major tasks and solutions to implement
socio-economic development and the State budget estimate for 2019, which will
be on discussion in late December at the conference between the government and
localities.
The
government leader also asked for stable supply of electricity during the

punishment on illegal "black credit" amid the recent detection of
the biggest ever illegal lending in Thanh Hoa involving 26 branches
nationwide.
PM
Nguyen Xuan Phuc acknowledged the positive socio-economic development in
November, while asking the relevant agencies to clarify any inadequacies to
prepare the best conditions for implementing the tasks set for 2019.

capital for sub-projects of the North-South highway project, the promulgation
of documents on the reduction and simplification of specialised inspection of
