In addition to highly appreciating the results of the direction and administration of all levels, creating positive changes in the socio-economic, national defense and security in the province, many delegates also raised many existing problems and limitations, requiring all levels and sectors to seriously evaluate and propose solutions in drastic direction and administration to well perform the tasks of 2019 as well as pressing social issues.

During the discussion in the hall, with a high sense of responsibility, delegates frankly raised many pressing issues, requiring all levels and sectors to take more drastic action.

Concerned about the quality of new rural construction, delegate Hoang Nghia Hung (Nam Dan district) said that communes recognized as meeting new rural standards must be truly beautiful, from the fields to the villages, into each house and much better than other localities.

However, in practice, the sectors have not been proactive with localities to carry out these tasks synchronously. For example, the system of electric poles does not ensure safety; the system of telecommunication lines in the space of the NTM commune has not been handled.

Or in agricultural production, without proper planning, on a field there are many rice fields, crops, and fish ponds; not only does it not ensure a beautiful new rural area but it also affects the environment and disease prevention in agriculture.

Besides concerns about border areas, ethnic minority areas, and limited socio-economic development, delegate Lo Thi Kim Ngan is worried that this is also an area where many crimes are taking place, especially drug crimes and human trafficking.

Sharing the concerns of delegate Lo Thi Kim Ngan, delegate Nguyen Huu Cau also acknowledged that these are sophisticated criminals and to continue to contain and limit these crimes, in addition to the fierce fight of the police force, it is necessary for the entire political system to participate, especially in propaganda work, raising awareness for ethnic minorities and border areas; at the same time, calling on each family to pay attention to educating their children not to become addicted to drugs.

Delegate Nguyen Huu Cau also suggested that local authorities should pay attention to directing the fight against the trade, transportation and use of firecrackers and that the Standing Committee of the District People's Council should pay attention to monitoring this issue.

Regarding illegal credit activities, in addition to the struggle of functional forces, delegate Nguyen Huu Cau also requested the State Bank of the province to study and reform lending procedures to make them most convenient for people, limiting people from borrowing illegal credit.
