Mong Cai in Quang Ninh and China's Dongxing have agreed to extend Bac Luan II border gate hours in a pilot program to ease goods movement, reduce congestion, and boost trade.
Mong Cai also urged Dongxing to lower customs fees, improve import-export efficiency, and adopt flexible controls like other Vietnam-China crossings.
Both cities pledged to enhance cross-border tourism, address labor issues, and strengthen ties between border communities./.
