“This is a difficult but necessary task. In order to do so, the assessment of the inspection and review of land acquisition and resettlement in Cua Lo town has truly ensured objectivity, honesty and accuracy; at the same time, it also clearly identifies the violations of related organizations and individuals to report to higher authorities for consideration and handling of responsibilities according to regulations…” - Standing Deputy Secretary of Cua Lo Town Party Committee Le Thanh Long said.
