Speaking at the opening of the conference, comrade Le Xuan Dai highlighted the achievements that Nghe An has made in the work of controlling administrative procedures in recent times. Notably, the public announcement of administrative procedures applied from the provincial to communal levels has gradually become routine; awareness of the role and importance of this work among cadres, civil servants, public employees and people in the province has been raised, contributing to the province's competitiveness index (CPI) increasing steadily over the years.
