We, voters and veterans, do not agree with the way the priests behave. We request that the government resolutely and severely punish these individuals.

Mr. Thiet hopes that the government will pay attention to farmers' lives with more specific policies in production, and at the same time have a support mechanism so that farmers can participate in health insurance and have access to medical services.

Concerned about the sharp drop in agricultural product prices, especially livestock products, Mr. Le Thanh Tinh, Hamlet 4, Dien Thang Commune, suggested: Farmers are stuck in a vicious cycle of good harvests and low prices, the government, all levels, and sectors have launched a "rescue" campaign. Voters suggested that the government should orient the market, solve output, and provide agricultural products for sustainable agricultural development.

Especially, pay attention to improving the competitiveness of agricultural products, especially farmers need to produce cleanly and have addresses,” Mr. Quang affirmed.
