Van Truong • DNUM_BDZAHZCACF 18:02

Dinh Market, in Yen Thanh Commune, is one of the largest rural markets in Nghe An Province, meeting three times a month, attracting thousands of people from many communes to come and buy and sell. However, it is alarming that this market is flooded with counterfeit, fake, and unlabeled goods, which are openly sold at surprisingly low prices, posing many risks to consumers.

The involvement of state agencies and market management forces is needed.
