quality and minimise unplanned agricultural practices. Additionally, the agency
needs to carry out solutions to link production expansion with the market’s
demand.
The Department of Industry and Trade is

coordinating with the customs department and relevant agencies to simplify
administrative procedures for export-import activities. The department was also

and daily activities.
The Department of Construction will have to
review and deal with difficulties facing the projects exploiting limestone for the
production of building materials so that these projects can be resumed.
The Department of Natural Resources and
Environment needs to propose solutions to solve land disputes between
businesses and local residents in order to harmonise both sides’ interests and
ensure people’s livelihoods. It was also directed to create clean land for
investment attraction.

parks was ordered to overhaul the planning of industrial parks and support the
projects already granted with investment certificates to accelerate their
implementation.
Besides, the provincial People’s Committee
assigned the Department of Transport to assist provincial leaders in proposing
the Ministry of Transport supplement the upgrade of National Highways 70 and 15
to the public investment plan. The agency was also asked to enhance
coordination with Son La province to speed up the construction of Hoa Binh –
