The Prime Minister directed Hanoi City to review the process of surveying, assessing reserves, preparing documents, and organizing auctions to grant sand mining rights in Ba Vi and Bac Tu Liem districts.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh's telegram dated November 11 stated that the auction results for the right to exploit three sand mines in Chau Son, Tay Dang - Minh Chau (Ba Vi district), and Lien Mac (Bac Tu Liem district) were "many times higher than the starting price, with unusual factors". Public opinion is particularly interested in this auction result and it could create an effect on the construction materials market.
Therefore, the Prime Minister requested a review of the entire auction process, not allowing organizations and individuals to take advantage of management loopholes to profit, lose, waste, or benefit groups. Violations in the auction of the three sand mines must be detected early and handled. "Prevent acts of taking advantage of the auction to push up prices and disrupt the market," the Prime Minister directed and requested Hanoi to report before November 20.
The Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Construction, and the Ministry of Justice were assigned to coordinate with localities to inspect auctions for mineral exploitation rights, especially minerals used as materials, showing unusual signs, with winning results many times higher than the starting price.
