The teams will be located in industrial and economic zones and function under direct guidance of a leader from the provincial people’s committees, who will regularly examine and supervise all phases in the working process of the teams.

 

This body will assess damage of the companies and report the Ministry of Finance and Planning and Investment. The ministries will synthesize reports and propose specific support.

 

The Ministry of Planning and Investment and local authorities are directed to work together to resolve administrative procedures for businesses so that they can resume operation.

 

Binh Duong, Dong Nai and Ha Tinh Provinces continue to back the riot- hit companies and timely resolve their proposals as well as difficulties, especially to those in Vung Ang Economic Zone in Ha Tinh.

 

Authorized agencies will work with heavily damaged companies who are unable to resume business, aiming to estimate losses and define their possibilities to recover production.

                                                           

The Ministry of Public Security has been instructed to fortify measures to ensure security and safety for foreign companies in economic and industrial zones and prevent violence from recurring.
