At the meeting, President Phuc noted that as Binh Duong is a densely populated province, where many businesses and factories are located, and a trading gateway of the Southeast region and Ho Chi Minh City, the fight against COVID-19 has encountered many difficulties. That requires the province to take effective measures, first and foremost to protect people's health, limit the rate of infection and the number of deaths, he said.
The President requested that during social distancing, Binh Duong must not let people go hungry or sick and mobilize the highest resources from the state, localities and benefactors to help disadvantaged areas.
