Hung Yen destroys more than 1 ton of foul-smelling pig intestines

On May 5, functional forces in Hung Yen inspected a truck driven by Mr. C.V. T when traveling through Hoan Long commune and discovered that the truck was carrying 1,130kg of pig intestines showing signs of decomposition, emitting a foul odor, not ensuring veterinary hygiene and food safety.

Through verification, the entire shipment had no clear origin and was being transported for consumption. Functional agencies determined that Mr. C.V. T had violated regulations on transporting animal products that do not ensure food safety for business.

Market Management Team No. 1 administratively fined Mr. C.V. T. 10 million VND, and at the same time forced the destruction of more than 1 ton of violating pig intestines. The destruction was monitored by Hoan Long Commune Police in coordination with functional units in accordance with legal regulations. See more...

Agricultural products with billion-dollar revenue but people's lives are still difficult

Gia Lai recorded strong growth in agricultural exports in 2025 with a turnover of about 3.44 billion USD, an increase of 14.7% compared to the previous year. Key commodities such as coffee, bananas, passion fruit, cassava and rice have been exported to nearly 60 countries, of which coffee brought in about 1.5 billion USD.

Leaders of Gia Lai province orient agricultural development towards high technology, standardizing raw material areas and building a linkage chain between businesses, people and the government. The goal is to improve the value of agricultural products, helping people truly benefit from growth and sustainable agricultural development. See more...
