programme to stabilise the market which requests distributors, wholesalers and
retailers to maintain prices of pork, as well as join hands with the
surveillance force to increase inspections on traders’ activities to prevent
speculation.

fields, the provincial People’s Committee asked for inspections of land
regulation implementation and land prices in particular so as to sustain the
real estate market and timely handle violations, and publicise information on
land planning and roadmap, among others.
