Government Inspector General Doan Hong Phong has responded to the petitions of voters from several provinces sent before the 7th session of the 15th National Assembly.

Currently, the Government Inspectorate is making efforts to carry out the tasks of Project 390/2022 in general and to build a national database on asset and income control nationwide in particular.
