Speaking in conclusion, Mr. Pham Van Lap acknowledged and appreciated the opinions expressing responsibility, closely following the Central Government's requirements and guiding documents, demonstrating a constructive spirit, and at the same time being linked to the actual conditions at the grassroots.
The City's Standing Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee agreed to organize voter contact conferences in both face-to-face and online formats.
