However, voters and people are still worried about some phenomena that often occur during the Lunar New Year such as increased prices of goods due to increased consumption demand; high bus fares make people upset, causing difficulties for people's lives, especially students and low-income workers who need to return home for Tet holiday...
Traffic congestion and accidents during holidays and Tet; illegal trading, transportation, storage and use of fireworks continue...
"Therefore, it is necessary for the authorities to continue to pay attention and have effective solutions in the coming time" - voters wish.
The report of the People's Petition Committee said that in December 2024, the situation of citizens' complaints, denunciations, recommendations and reflections tended to decrease compared to November 2024.

Through review, there are still 98 citizens from 29 localities who are currently filing long-term complaints in Hanoi. The Petition Committee has actively and proactively coordinated with the Government Inspectorate and relevant agencies to organize meetings and direct dialogues with many large groups of people.
Instruct, propagate, and persuade complainants to strictly comply with legal regulations on citizen reception, complaints, and denunciations, and mobilize many citizens to return to their localities for consideration and resolution in accordance with legal regulations.
In addition to some contents reflected by voters, the Government and the Prime Minister have issued directives and management documents in the past time. The People's Petition Committee recommends that the Government direct relevant ministries, branches, and local authorities to pay attention to the preparation of goods for the Lunar New Year in localities.
