Mr. Hoang Vinh Khuyen, Chairman of the Dam Ha District People's Committee, said: The locality regularly holds meetings to review and assess the progress of investment and construction, and the disbursement rate of capital for each project and construction work that has been allocated capital in 2024; any project that does not meet the progress will be severely criticized, and at the same time, capital will be adjusted for projects and construction works with a large disbursement volume and the ability to complete, so that capital cannot remain idle.
