Especially, in the first quarter of this year, Vietnam’s mango exports earned 125.2 million USD, up 30.6% over the same period in 2020. However, these days, the price of mangoes at the market has dropped sharply. For example: An Giang low-seeded mangoes are reduced to 9,000-15,000 VND/kg depending on the type, many places sell for 15,000 VND/kg, Vip Taiwanese mangoes are only 7,000 VND/kg, Australian mangoes are advertised. As for export goods, the price has also decreased to 15,000 VND/kg,… Not only that, mangoes are also landing in the markets in extremely large quantities. So, on the “online market” instead of selling by weight as before, mangoes are now sold in sets of several pounds or sold in boxes. Mangoes are being sold on the “web market” for as cheap as vegetables Wholesalers said that currently Vietnamese mangoes are as cheap as vegetables, retail by weight, shipping is more expensive than mangoes. So, they switched to selling in sets of a few pounds or in boxes for convenience. Ordering a whole box of 15kg Taiwanese mangoes for only 95,000 VND, Ms. Doan Thi Thanh Hai from Nguyen Cong Hoan (Ba Dinh, Hanoi), said: “A box for only 95,000 VND, the price is only about 6,700 VND/ kg”. According to Ms. Hai, in the past, she often had to buy Taiwanese mangoes with flat seeds at the price of 35,000-45,000 VND/kg depending on the time. 4 days ago, she also ordered Australian mango with large fruit, red skin, ripe yellow inside, sweet and delicious, priced at only 15,000 VND/kg. “In previous years, Vietnamese mangoes were usually more expensive,. And now the opposite. At the market, Chinese mini mangoes cost up to 25,000-30,000 VND/kg, while Vietnamese mangoes are as cheap as vegetables,” she commented. Therefore, on this occasion, Ms. Hai did not buy foreign fruits anymore, but switched to buying Vietnamese mangoes to support farmers to consume products. The retail price of mangoes at the market mostly fell to less than 10,000 VND/kg (photo: BH) On the “online market”, Vietnamese mangoes are also crowded with customers because the price is so cheap. Most women choose to buy in boxes of 9-15 kg/barrel because the price is cheaper than buying in sets, 3-5 kg/set, depending on the type. Talk to PV. VietNamNet, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu Thuy – a large online fruit seller in Cau Giay (Hanoi) admitted that on this occasion most mango prices have dropped sharply. Some are halved, some are now only 1/3 of what they used to be. Ms. Thuy said that on this occasion, she sells many kinds of mangoes such as: acacia mango, Australian mango, Taiwanese mango, flat-seeded mango, etc. However, each time she imports a different type of mango for customers to choose from. . Mangoes do not retail 1-2kg as before, but are divided into 5kg bags or sold in boxes of 9-15kg. “Because of the unprecedented low price, on this occasion, the number of customers buying mangoes has increased dramatically,” she said and revealed that it is normal for her to consume about 1-2 tons of mangoes a day. One day, she sold out more than 3 tons, because most of the customers bought by the box. Like last week, she sold out about 10 tons of mangoes of all kinds. On this occasion, the harvest season was in full swing with the Covid-19 epidemic, so the price of mangoes at the growers plummeted (photo: BH) Ms. Bui Thi Tram from Hoang Van Thai (Thanh Xuan, Hanoi), also said that in the past half month, she has consumed around 1 ton of low-seeded mangoes every day. “A lot of people will not believe it. But low-seeded mangoes are very cheap. Big and beautiful fruit is only 15,000 VND/kg I sell in sets of 5kg, customers buy less than 1 set, buy 2 sets more, so the amount of mangoes sold every day is very large,” she shared. Last April, many growers in An Giang and Long An said that mangoes were in the harvest season but faced difficulties in exporting due to the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic, so the price plummeted. Ms. An, a mango farmer in Chau Doc (An Giang), lamented that if Hoa Loc mango was purchased for 40,000 VND/kg, now it only sells for 20,000 VND/kg, Thai mangoes are still sold. 15,000 VND/kg, Taiwanese mango varieties are sold at the garden for only 3,000 VND/kg. Traders buying mangoes in Long An also said that because mangoes in the southern provinces were in the midst of a busy harvest and encountered an epidemic, the price dropped. Accordingly, acacia mangoes reduced to 4,000-5,000 VND/kg, Cat Chu mango 9,000-10,000 VND/kg, Hoa Loc sand mango 15,000-17,000 VND/kg.

The pricing of the GrabCar Economy package is being tested Many information shows that Grab Vietnam may be about to launch a new GrabCar service. Grab’s new package is called GrabCar Economy. According to the description, this service is for passengers wishing to move GrabCar with basic requirements and the cost of saving about 10% more than normal GrabCar service. Currently, this service is being tested to a number of driver partners. In a statement sent to drivers, Grab said testing the new service will help drivers gain new passengers for more opportunities to increase their income. At the same time, the new service will not affect existing Grabcar services. “GrabCar Economy service will not be automatically activated for all partners, only priority will be given to those in need and quickly register the service”, said Grab’s notice. The fare of GrabCar Economy is 25,000 VND for the minimum of the first 2 km and 8,500 VND / km for the next. GrabCar service prices are respectively VND 27,000 and VND 9,500. The fare is cheaper, but the surcharges (night surcharge, platform fee, stop surcharge surcharge) and discounts are the same as for GrabCar. Many GrabCar drivers reported receiving information about the new service trial implementation from Grab. However, GrabCar Economy is still in beta and it is not clear when it will hit the market. The service name is also displayed on the user’s application, but the user is still unable to book a vehicle. This service is already available on the app, but the user can’t book a car yet The launch of a cheaper package will help Grab expand more customer segments, especially customers who want to travel with more reasonable prices and do not have high requirements for vehicle types. This policy can help this ride-hailing company expand its market share by getting more customers from other apps or traditional taxis. This can make the market race increasingly fierce and the opportunities for new applications to enter the market will narrow, if there is not enough financial capacity to compete.

These regulations are part of the EU’s effort to regulate the AI ​​sector and catch up with the US and China in an area that spans from voice recognition to insurance and law enforcement.

This draft provision would prohibit general supervision of citizens, as well as any technology used to manipulate citizens’ behavior, opinions or decisions. The application of AI in the military field is not within the scope of these regulations.

Violations of the aforementioned regulation, depending on the severity, can result in businesses being fined up to 4% of global revenue.

To encourage innovation, Brussels also wants to provide a clear legal framework for billionaires in all 27 member countries of the bloc.

To achieve this, the draft regulation states that companies will require a special validation of deemed “high-risk” applications before being allowed to hit the market.

High-risk systems are those that have “the function of identifying people in public places from a distance through biometric features”, as well as “factors of security in institutions. important public infrastructure ”.

In addition, applications not considered “high risk” will not be subject to any additional regulations other than the applicable ones.

Google and other major tech corporations are very interested in the EU’s AI strategy, as Europe is often the place that sets the standard for how technology is governed around the world.

Last year, Google warned the EU’s definition of AI was too broad and Brussels had to avoid excessive control over a key technology.

The above draft regulations must be ratified by member countries and get the approval of the European Parliament before they can be applied./.
