At the conference, voters expressed their excitement and joy with the results of the province's socio-economic development; at the same time, reflected many opinions related to the regime, policies, production and life.

Voter Phan Quoc Hoan reported that many people in the commune used to join the army, were discharged after 1975, were awarded medals and badges but have not received any benefits so far. This voter hopes that the Party and State will pay due attention to these people.

Voter Le Xuan Bac reported that the lighting system is running through the gardens of 21 households in Hamlet 1, posing a danger to people. On the other hand, in Hamlet 9, there are many damaged and seriously degraded electric poles and lines. Therefore, it is recommended that authorities at all levels direct the Electricity sector to focus on repairing the problem to ensure people's safety.

Regarding the allowance regime for village and hamlet officials, many voters expressed their concerns. Voter Nguyen Hong Minh said that the current allowance regime for village and hamlet officials is too low, while the area of ​​the merged hamlet is large, the population is dense, and the composition is more complex. Therefore, voter Minh hopes that the State will have a solution to increase the allowance for these people.

Voter Minh also said that the agricultural production of people in hamlets 5 and 7 in Nam Thanh commune depends entirely on nature due to the difficult and inadequate irrigation infrastructure. He hopes that the government will study solutions to upgrade the canal system, helping people to conveniently carry out agricultural production.

Regarding the issue of land for production, voter Nguyen Hong Tam reflected that in 2007, 34 households in Hamlet 9 were allocated about 300 hectares of forestry land to reforest bare land and hills. People spent money to plant acacia, harvested the first crop, and then continued to plant the second crop.

However, the Nam Dan Special Use Forest Management Board later concluded that this forestry land overlapped with the special use forest land area. Mr. Tam proposed to allow the conversion of this special use forest land area into production forest so that people could soon harvest acacia and improve their lives.

Voters in Nam Thanh commune also requested competent authorities to facilitate the timely allocation of 1,000 tons of cement to communes that have reached the advanced new rural area target in 2022; requested to repair the Da Han spillway to promote its function; directed the Department of Education and Training to direct the construction of the sanitary works of Nam Thanh Secondary School; directed Nghe An Water Supply Joint Stock Company to speed up the construction progress of the pipeline, soon provide clean water to people in the commune; and have policies to support people when the price of agricultural materials has increased recently.
