Mr. Le Van Khoa in Linh Hoang village (Thanh Quang commune) expressed his opinion at the dialogue.

At the dialogue, there were 18 opinions focusing on the fields of agriculture, environment, and transportation. Notably, many people reported that the landfills in Thanh Quang commune were full, causing environmental pollution. In the commune, there was a situation of burning landfills that burned down lychee gardens. Thanh Quang commune residents requested the district to soon propose to relevant departments and branches of the province so that the locality can transport garbage for centralized treatment in Viet Hong commune (in the same Thanh Ha district).

Deputy Secretary of the District Party Committee, Chairman of the Thanh Ha District People's Council Pham Van Hung said that the district is currently supported with funding for collecting, transporting and treating waste centrally for 15 out of 20 communes and towns, while the remaining 5 communes, including Thanh Quang, are collecting, transporting and treating waste. However, the reality is that landfills are full, waste is not classified, not neatly collected, and over time, leachate and odors are not thoroughly treated, affecting the surrounding environment.
