Comrade Bui Duc Hinh, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, delivered a concluding speech at the conference.

Comrade Quach Tat Liem, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, Deputy Head of the Working Group, thoroughly grasped and implemented Official Dispatch No. 65/CD-TTg dated May 15, 2025 of the Prime Minister on launching a peak period to fight against smuggling, trade fraud, counterfeit goods, and intellectual property infringement; Directive No. 13/CT-TTg dated May 17, 2025 of the Prime Minister on strengthening the fight against smuggling, trade fraud and counterfeit goods in the new situation.

Implementing the Prime Minister's Official Dispatch 65/CD-TTg and Directive 13/CT-TTg, the Working Group has developed a Plan for the peak period to combat, prevent and repel crimes of smuggling, trade fraud and counterfeit goods. The peak period lasts from May 15 to June 15, 2025, with the synchronous participation of departments, branches and localities.

The plan sets out three main goals: Ending smuggling, counterfeiting, and poor quality goods, protecting the rights of consumers and legitimate businesses; Enhancing the responsibility and coordination capacity of functional forces, ensuring there are no "management gaps"; Reviewing and perfecting legal policies, and strictly handling violations.

Authorities will increase inspections at wholesale markets, roads, waterways, transit points, warehouses and especially on e-commerce platforms and social networks - where smuggling and counterfeiting are becoming more complicated. Key commodity groups include: gasoline, pharmaceuticals, functional foods, fertilizers, cosmetics, food, fashion , gold and silver, construction materials, foreign currency, etc.

Three provincial-level interdisciplinary inspection teams were established to monitor and handle specific areas such as industry and trade, health, agriculture and environment. The inspection must be "focused and key", avoiding formalities and not hindering legitimate business activities. The working group also emphasized the motto of implementing "6 clear": clear people, clear work, clear time, clear responsibility, clear products, clear authority.

Comrade Quach Tat Liem, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee spoke at the conference.

At the conference, delegates discussed and contributed many ideas to improve implementation efficiency, ensuring that the plan implementation achieves the set goals.

In his concluding remarks, Mr. Bui Duc Hinh, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, emphasized the province's determination to strictly implement the Government's directives on preventing smuggling and trade fraud. He requested the members of the Working Group to uphold their sense of responsibility, proactively advise and organize inspections, and strictly handle violations, contributing to stabilizing the market and protecting the rights of consumers and legitimate businesses.
