After listening to Deputy Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation Nguyen Thanh Hien announce the results of the 5th session agenda, the 14th National Assembly had 11 opinions from Nghi My commune voters expressing their thoughts and aspirations to the National Assembly delegates.

Voter Ngo Tri Sy, hamlet 13, Nghi My commune proposed that the completion of N5 road should be effective, serving the socio-economic development of the province and Nghi Loc district. "However, with the dense system of residential crossroads, while people's traffic awareness is still limited, accidents often occur on N5 road. It is recommended that the province and district pay attention to finding solutions to minimize traffic accidents and ensure traffic safety" - Mr. Sy expressed his concerns.

Mr. Sy proposed that Route 534 through Nghi Loc district be upgraded to National Highway 48 E, many sections of which are seriously degraded. He requested that the State soon invest in upgrading to facilitate traffic and economic and transportation development for people in the area.

Sharing the same view, Chairman of Nghi My Commune People's Committee Hoang Duc Tri emphasized that National Highway 48E is the key axis in the West of Nghi Loc, the vital road connecting Do Luong, Yen Thanh and Nghi Loc districts, but has been seriously degraded for many years. Localities and voters have petitioned the central and provincial agencies, departments and branches and at voter meetings of the National Assembly and People's Councils at all levels, but it has not been invested in or upgraded.

"I request the National Assembly and the province to promptly fix, upgrade and repair to resolve the people's concerns; promptly consider funding for the 2km road to restore the section through Nghi My to Nghi Lam commune after completing the N5 road, which has been proposed by the locality but has not been resolved yet," said Mr. Tri.

The Chairman of Nghi My Commune People's Committee proposed that the road connecting the three communes of Nghi My, Nghi Cong Bac and Nghi Cong Nam would be flooded and cut off during the rainy season, affecting the property and lives of the people. He requested the State to promptly repair the flood to ensure people's travel when the rainy season comes.

Expressing excitement about the results of the fight against corruption, which has received focused leadership from the Party and State, voter Hoang Xuan Luong, hamlet 5 (Nghi My) suggested strengthening the fight against corruption.

“Recently, hostile reactionary forces have incited people to protest illegally. We request that the State and relevant agencies take strict measures and punish appropriately to ensure security, order and social safety,” Mr. Luong said.
