Answering the question of voter Tran Thanh Phong from Tan Hoi commune on the anti-corruption progress, the NA leader said that in the next meeting, the NA will make amendments to the Anti-Corruption Law.

She added that the Government has inspected major corruption cases, while the Party Central Committee’s Inspection Commission is examining and handling Party members with link to corruption. Strict punishments will be applied to corrupt officials, she assured.

In response to queries on measures to deal with unreasonable toll in some toll plazas along national highways, she said that the Government and the Ministry of Transport are reviewing the fee for timely adjustments. At the same time, the NA will also continue strengthening supervision over BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer) projects, especially in transport.

Lauding An Thoi commune voters’ interest in green agriculture development, the NA leader assigned Can Tho city to send officials to seek suitable production models to develop in the commune, while encouraging the formation of cooperation in processing and preserving farm produce.
