The NA leader joined the delegation of provincial NA deputies for a meeting with voters in Thanh Hoa city and Nga Son district on Monday, discussing pressing local issues related to tax policy, medical care, and conversion of land use purposes, as well as support policies for former officers and soldiers joining the past wars of resistance.

Voters in Nga Son district expressed their expectations that the State should invest in the construction of irrigation works to limit local salinity intrusion, while promoting planning for intensive farming areas that bring high economic efficiency, in addition to increasing investment in tourism development in Nga Son.

They also desired that the Government pay more attention to adjust support policies for military personnel, especially those on duty in border areas and islands.

The suggestions would be collected and sent to relevant NA agencies for further study, he added.
