On the afternoon of September 20, continuing the working program in Dak Nong , Vice Chairman of the National Assembly's Ethnic Council Quang Van Huong led the National Assembly's Ethnic Council delegation to have a working session with the People's Committee of Dak Nong province.
In the period of 2019 - 2023, Dak Nong province has assigned protection contracts for an average of about 19,341 hectares/1,013 households/year. The province has assigned 4,741 hectares of forest to 12 communities to manage, protect, and practice culture and beliefs associated with forests; assigned 821 hectares of forest to 88 households to manage, protect, and develop forests according to regulations.
During this period, Dak Nong implemented a forest protection and development policy of over 732.7 billion VND. The average income of people participating in forest protection and development is from 350,000 - 800,000 VND/ha/year.

In addition to culture, the province needs to pay attention to income and economic stability so that ethnic minorities can stabilize their lives associated with the forest.
The province carefully reviews the land area recovered by forestry companies to delimit and hand over to competent units for management and protection. For disputed and encroached forest land, it is necessary to establish a file to monitor the subjects so as not to make the case more complicated.
