Mr. Pham Phan Dung, Head of the General Department of State Reserves, said that since 2016, the department has worked with the National Assembly Ethnic Minorities Committee to organise 3 inspections on the implementation of the Prime Minister’s decision on rice distribution to poor pupils.

Inspections showed that despite inconvenient traffic conditions in some localities, the rice has been allocated timely and adequately./.
