Especially, the sector’s competent authorities must speed up administrative reform since this was a crucial factor for the goal of increasing merchandise volume circulated via seaway and waterways transport. Regarding the proposals and recommendations of Nghe An in particular, especially one of building anti-drifting pillars for Yen Xuan bridge, Deputy Minister Nguyen Nhat assigned affiliated departments of MoT to examine and review for finalizing reasonable and timely solutions, thereby facilitating economic and social development of Nghe An province.
