Along with that, the National Assembly has passed the Housing Law, the Real Estate Business Law, the Land Law, the Law on Credit Institutions and detailed regulations of the laws that have been issued and come into effect. Since then, it has ensured policy consistency and synchronization and many new, breakthrough policies towards promoting decentralization and delegation of power; reforming administrative procedures. At the same time, many difficulties and obstacles have been removed to create favorable conditions for people and businesses to participate in investing and developing housing projects and the real estate market.

“With the consistent, unified and drastic direction of the Government and the Prime Minister, along with the participation of all ministries, branches and localities, the socio-economic sectors of our country have had many positive changes.

A representative of Kobler Vietnam Joint Stock Company shared that they are a supplier of quartz flooring products to replace traditional wooden floors when the biggest weakness of these types of floors is poor water resistance, leading to peeling and damage to the floor. Typhoon Yagi along with the rain that has lasted for many weeks has caused many problems for families using industrial or natural wooden floors.

Natural wood floors and engineered wood floors are very susceptible to humid weather conditions or flooding. When exposed to water, the wood will swell, leading to warping and shrinkage. If exposed to water for a long time, the entire floor can be damaged. This not only destroys the original beauty of the floor but also poses a potential risk of accidents. In addition, a humid environment is an ideal condition for termites to develop, threatening the structure of the house.

"With the main ingredient being quartz stone combined with a sapphire coating on the surface, quartz floors are not only waterproof and termite-proof but also have good load-bearing capacity. Along with that, the floor structure integrates many technologies such as G - UV combined with Microban Protection feature to prevent the formation and development of bacteria that are harmful to family health. The Sapphire scratch-resistant layer is resistant to abrasion and scratches, reaching AC6 standard - the highest level in the European standard table..." - said a Kobler representative.

Mr. Nguyen Van Tuan - Director of Binh Minh Construction, Mechanical and Trading Company Limited shared that the company's production capacity can meet about 100,000 products. By 2025, it will invest in a new factory specializing in products related to aluminum and zinc casting... serving the automobile and electric pole industries. The company's order volume is sufficient until December 2024, of which exports account for about 20% of revenue, along with supplying FDI enterprises and multinational corporations in Vietnam.
