The Management Board of Dong Dang - Lang Son Border Gate Economic Zone also said that among the five border gates with import and export activities with China, Huu Nghi International Border Gate has the largest traffic volume. On May 28, this border gate cleared 637 cargo vehicles (290 exported vehicles, 347 imported vehicles).

In recent days, border gates in Lang Son have also recorded an increase in the number of export trucks.

Speaking to Thanh Nien , Mr. Hoang Khanh Duy, Deputy Head of the Management Board of Dong Dang - Lang Son Border Gate Economic Zone, said that the exported goods are mainly durian, with over 200 vehicles per day. The number of vehicles in stock per day is large but not worrying because every day there are over 500 vehicles exported at a fast rate, and there has been no phenomenon of vehicles having to bring goods back to the domestic market.

To reduce the load on Huu Nghi International Border Gate, Lang Son province authorities have proposed and China has accepted to import durian through Tan Thanh Sub-Border Gate.

"Since China officially imported durian, businesses have been bringing goods through Huu Nghi International Border Gate. Importing through Tan Thanh Sub-border Gate will help speed up customs clearance. On May 27, businesses exported 23 trucks of durian through Tan Thanh Sub-border Gate, on May 28 they exported 35 trucks and there will be more in the coming days," said Mr. Duy.
