The provincial authorities will instruct localities to focus on creating jobs for relocated people so that they can normalise their lives as soon as possible, he said.
In addition, the province has also poured over 300 billion VND (14.5 million USD) into building stone embankments along the Gam river in Na Hang district and moving households living along the two banks of the river affected by the Tuyen Quang Hydropower Plant to safe places.-VNA
