Shops and restaurants on Da Giang Street in Hoa Binh city close doors in compliance with the Prime Minister’s Directive.

As the capital of the province, Hoa Binh city has a large number of shops, restaurants, café, karaoke clubs and fitness centres, mostly located in the communes of Phuong Lam, Dong Tien, Tan Thinh and Huu Nghi. On the first two days after the directive took effect, most of the shops and restaurants suspended operation. Da Giang, one of the city’s busiest streets, has become quieter than ever as all shops have closed, some even did it long before the directive is issued.

Following the direct, governmental departments and agencies in the province have cancelled many major events, like Party’s congresses at grassroots levels, to avoid crowded gatherings. The districts have accelerated communication campaigns to raise public awareness of recommendations made by the Health Ministry and other authorities to contain the spread of the coronavirus.

Meanwhile, the Vietnam Buddhist Shangha (VBS) has requested its chapters nationwide to cancel all public religious services and events that gather a large number of people to commemorate the Buddha’s Birthday, slated for April 8.

The VBS has advised monks and followers to practice rituals at their monastery and at home as part of the concerted effort to combat the COVID-19./.
