The “Plan” clarifies the development of differentiated charging in six situations, including road sections, vehicle types (types), time periods, entrances and exits, directions, and payment methods, innovating service models, scientifically and accurately formulating differentiated charging plans, and comprehensively promoting differences The toll collection will allow the public to share more of the dividends of highway reform and development. Will not increase the burden of travel So, after the implementation of differentiated tolls, will some road sections increase tolls? In this regard, Gu Zhifeng said that the purpose of differentiated fees can be summarized in six words: flow adjustment, fee reduction, and efficiency improvement. The “Plan” also makes it clear that when formulating and implementing policies to promote differentiated expressway tolls, all localities must adhere to the principle of based on the current toll standards and the principle of downward differentiation; the current government pricing must be adjusted to guide prices, and existing government pricing must be adjusted to guide prices. Government pricing and charging standards are the upper limit, giving expressway operation and management units a certain degree of autonomy in pricing. Judging from the previous pilot situation, this principle has basically been realized. According to Gu Zhifeng, since 2017, the Ministry of Transport has guided many places to actively explore differentiated charges by time period, road section, and vehicle type in accordance with the actual conditions of the region, and carried out pilot work. For example, Shanxi Province offers a 30% discount on truck tolls from 8 am to 20:00 on 5 road sections including Tianda Expressway, and a 70% discount on truck tolls from 20:00 to 8:00 on the next day; Zhejiang provides Qianjiang Tunnel for passage. A 12% discount on tolls will be implemented for category 5 (5-axle) and category 6 (6-axle and above) trucks. These measures effectively played a role in cutting peaks and filling valleys, balanced the traffic volume of the road network, and did not increase travel costs. According to reports, Hubei Province began a pilot project in June 2018, and introduced measures such as extending the time for preferential tolls for passenger and truck tolls and increasing the margins of preferential tolls for two expressways, reducing logistics costs for enterprises by 600 million yuan each year. “From a practical point of view, the implementation of differentiated expressway tolls has resulted in a balanced distribution of traffic in pilot areas and sections, significantly improved road network operation efficiency, effectively reduced truck transportation costs, and effective protection of the legitimate rights and interests of highway investors, realizing multi-party mutual benefit. A win-win situation.” Gu Zhifeng said. Continuously optimize and improve the long-term mechanism According to Gu Zhifeng, according to the plan, the specific implementation steps of expressway differentiated toll collection are divided into three stages. The first is the plan formulation stage. Before the end of June, local transportation, development and reform and financial authorities will organize and coordinate expressway operation and management units, and on the basis of summing up pilot experience, comprehensive analysis and investigation, selecting qualified expressways, in-depth analysis and calculations, Formulate a differentiated fee plan scientifically and report it to the provincial people’s government for approval in accordance with the law and implement it. The second is the organization and implementation stage. Before the end of September, local transportation, development and reform, and financial authorities will supervise and guide expressway operation and management units, and earnestly organize implementation in accordance with the plan approved by the provincial people’s government, and strengthen dynamic tracking to ensure tangible results . The third is to summarize the evaluation stage. In mid-December, local transportation, development and reform, and financial authorities will organize third-party evaluations based on the implementation status, analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of the implementation of the evaluation plan, optimize and improve relevant policies and measures in time, and establish and improve the differentiation of expressways. The long-term fee mechanism forms a summary evaluation report. Experts said that differentiated expressway toll collection is a reform and attempt, and the implementation of the plan will greatly increase the complexity of expressway toll collection. The tolls of different highways are different, and the tolls of different types of vehicles are different, and even the same car passing through the same section of highway will cause different tolls due to different times. Therefore, many experts suggest that, on the one hand, through continuous exploration, measures to local conditions, road conditions, and classified policies, further optimize and refine policies, establish long-term mechanisms, and enhance the effectiveness of policies; at the same time, clearly mark prices. Real-time check, so that highway users, especially car owners who don’t take the highway often, can learn about preferential information in a timely manner

Police of Thanh Xuan district (Hanoi) carry out procedures to issue citizen identification cards with chips for people. Photo: DANG ANH Over the past time, functional agencies in provinces and cities across the country have been actively implementing the issuance and exchange of citizen identification cards (CCCDs) with electronic chips, in order to achieve the goal by January 1. From 7-2021, 50 million cards will be issued. CCCD cards with electronic chips are considered an inevitable trend, in order to keep up with the current 4.0 technology trend along with the State’s efforts in reducing administrative procedures, contributing to the drastic reform of management. , creating favorable conditions, helping people to carry out administrative procedures and civil transactions… However, instead of supporting a right policy, some subjects sought to oppose and take advantage of them. social networks to attack, distort, and give false information to confuse public opinion about the issuance and change of CCCD… On September 3, 2020, the Prime Minister signed Decision No. 1368/QD-TTg approving the investment policy of production projects, granting and managing citizen identity, which defines the objectives of the project. The project is: Building a unified CCCD database nationwide, collecting and managing CCCD registration data automatically on information technology infrastructure to help store, retrieve, share, find information quickly and conveniently; improve the efficiency of state management of CCCD, create favorable conditions for citizens while carrying out administrative procedures and civil transactions; towards building e-Government, creating a breakthrough in socio-economic development of the whole country; contribute effectively to the fight against crime… If compared with the current ID card and CCCD, we will see that the chip-mounted CCCD has outstanding advantages. Specifically, each card is integrated with 20 residential data fields related to each individual with many accompanying applications such as: digital signature application, biometric application, one-time password application, lowering public key layer,… thereby allowing users to connect to public and private services quickly and conveniently. Not only that, the chip-mounted CCCD is manufactured using modern technology, is flexible in changing and adding personal information, has high security, helps to identify and identify accurately, so it minimizes the risk. theft or forgery to use for dark purposes. Now with the new CCCD when making transactions, individuals will not need to carry many documents (for example household registration, birth certificate, marriage registration, …) because this information is already available. stored and integrated in the card. Thanks to that, everyone has the conditions to make transactions quickly and conveniently, reducing travel time and costs for backing up and notarizing documents… Therefore, it can be affirmed that the CCCD card with a chip is a step forward in applying science and technology to state management activities, helping administrative reform effectively. This is also an important basis contributing to the realization of the goal of building an e-Government that the Party and State are setting, and the people are the beneficiaries. Not to mention, in the context of the strong development of the 4th industrial revolution, when the trend of digital transformation takes place in all fields, it becomes even more necessary to make CCCD cards with electronic chips. , contributing to the country’s quick access to the development trend in the world. In fact, the use of a chip-mounted CCCD card is the optimal choice in many countries. Statistics from the authorities show that there are about 70 countries using this card, even some countries have used CCCD chips since the 90s of the last century. Along with the development of science and technology, chip cards are increasingly effective in social life. In Estonia (Etonia), since 2002, the country has been using a chip-based CCCD card for people called ID Kaart to replace traditional identification documents. Since then, the Kaart ID has been used by people in this country to identify identities, health checks, vote elections, business registration, … as well as perform other electronic transactions. Not to mention, ID Kaart can also replace passports when people travel within the country, as well as to EU countries (European Union – European Union). Continuing to upgrade to increase security and maximize use efficiency, in September 2018, Estonian authorities put into application the Smart-ID digital identification system (providing and verifying digital identity). digital identity) using a chip that uses 384-bit ECC public key encryption and a QR Code (quick response code) for the Kaart ID. This country has set a target that by 2025 the number of e-citizens will reach 10 million, 8 times higher than the current population. Similar to Estonia, Argentina’s (Argentine) chip CCCD card named DNI integrates a lot of personal information, including credit account information. Or the CCCD card of Malaysia (Malaysia) is MyKad which integrates personal information such as passport, driver’s license, health information, … and also has the functions of electronic wallet, access ATM card access, mobile applications and PKI (for electronic transactions). Every Malaysian citizen is issued a MyKad card, but it is divided into three groups, including: MyPR (Malaysian permanent resident), MyKas (short-term resident of Malaysia) and MyKid (Malaysian citizen under 12 years old) year old). In many other countries, the CCCD chip card also integrates information related to the driver’s license (such as in Germany, Turkey, Argentina…), thereby helping to significantly reduce traffic violations; or people can use the CCCD chip in public, administrative and social services (such as in Japan, Korea,…). Grasping that inevitable trend, based on the existing conditions in terms of human resources, material resources and science – technology, in 2021, the issuance of CCCD card with official chip will be implemented synchronously by Vietnam on a large scale. country. In order to effectively implement this policy, propaganda has been promoted in the mass media. The functional agencies actively went to the villages and hamlets to mobilize people to make cards. In some agencies, units, schools, the issuance and replacement of CCCD cards is done on the spot. In localities, registered people have been given timed tickets, helping to reduce travel and waiting time. Even in some areas, the police in charge of the area also texted, went to each house to urge the card making. In many places, card making is done 24 hours a day to create the best conditions for people, especially those who are busy working during office hours, working in shifts, so time is tight… However, with the available dark purpose, the desire to restrain the development of Vietnam, the hostile forces and a number of organizations and individuals with a lack of goodwill immediately considered the implementation of the chip-based CCCD card. an opportunity to conduct countermeasures. With a hostile and extreme attitude, some subjects immediately posted misleading information and images. They blatantly claim that the installation of chips on CCCD cards is for the State to strengthen control over people, people lose their freedoms and have their privacy violated. Even blatantly slandered with the issuance of CCCD cards this time, people turned into “herd animals”, or compared “in some advanced countries, electronic chips are often attached to prisoners to serve prison sentences. stay at home”, thereby loudly saying that this is a sign of loss of “democracy and human rights”, calling on people not to cooperate with authorities, not to make CCCD cards with chips. Notably, some people because of lack of information and ignorance have rushed to believe and follow, continue to spread misinformation, malicious rumors, thereby arousing suspicion, confusion, Doubt in public opinion… It must be said that, whether intentionally distorting or unconsciously, such acts have hindered the implementation of a correct policy of the State. In order to promptly correct the above negative manifestations, in the past time, some individuals who have reported falsely about making CCCD cards with chips have been handled in accordance with the law. As at the end of last April, the police of Dak Lak province summoned Bui Thi Thanh T. (Hoa Thang commune, Buon Ma Thuot city) for posting incorrect comments about the job of CCCD. At the police station, T. admitted his work was against the law, so he deleted the comment and pledged not to repeat the offense. This is an example that people have to be very vigilant, if they don’t want to abet law violations, they need to be alert to inaccurate information, especially information of a deductive and fabricated nature. unfounded. Every citizen should always be aware and believe that the Vietnamese Party and State always strives for the legitimate rights and interests of the people. Article 3 of the Constitution (added and amended in 2013) affirms: “The State ensures and promotes the people’s right to mastery; recognize, respect, protect and guarantee human and citizen rights; realize the goal of rich people, strong country, democracy, justice and civilization, where everyone has a prosperous, free and happy life and has conditions for comprehensive development. This principle has always been consistently expressed in all lines and guidelines of the Party, and policies and laws of the State. Attaching electronic chips to CCCD cards, too, is a policy in line with the development trend of the country, the provisions of the law, and ensuring the information security of all people. The electronic chip on the CCCD card is not for locating, not infringing on the freedom of movement and privacy of each individual. When the card is lost, due to the identification control mechanism, personal information is not disclosed, only the cardholder can activate and use it. With a clear awareness of this issue, each individual will have the right behavior, believe and seriously implement the policy of the State. It is also a practical way to protect individual and community interests and contribute to the country’s socio-economic development.

Japan Post will implement a special EMS surcharge from June 1st

As for the reason for levying additional surcharges, Japan Post stated that it is mainly due to the global spread of the new crown epidemic, which has led to a decrease in air transportation and a continuous increase in transportation costs. Additional surcharges are only applicable to special regions, including Oceania, North and Central America, the Middle East, Europe and other regions.

It is understood that from January 1, 2021, electronic data for customs clearance in Japan will become a mandatory requirement. If submitted in the form of handwritten EMS labels, it may lead to the risk of customs clearance or return to the destination country. In addition, the U.S. Post Office has issued a notice that handwritten labels cannot be used for goods shipped to the United States. Therefore, Japan Post recommends that customers register as “international mail” as soon as possible to prepare for the restoration of EMS services to the United States.

Japan Post also announced that it will no longer issue “Seagull” summer greeting postcards with lottery starting this summer. The postcard is mainly used for promotion in businesses and stores, but due to the popularity of e-mail, the circulation has decreased. Last summer, due to the epidemic, economic activities were suppressed and utilization was drastically reduced.

On June 13, 2016, the Provincial People’s Committee issued Official Letter No. 894 / UBND-TNMT on the improvement of agricultural land that has been assigned to households and individuals. Accordingly, the Provincial People’s Committee authorizes the People’s Committees of districts, towns and cities to grant permits to renovate agricultural land which has been assigned to households and individuals, in combination with full recovery of leveling land. According to incomplete reported data, the implementation of Official Letter No. 894 / UBND-TNMT of the Provincial People’s Committee and Official Letter No. 702 / STNMT-KS, dated April 20, 2017, Official Letter No. 752 / STNMT-KS, dated 26 -4-2017 of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment (TN-MT) on the guidance of licensing procedures for the improvement of agricultural land assigned to households and individuals to combine land reclamation, to date, People’s Committees of districts, towns and cities have granted permits for about 200 cases. According to the general assessment of districts, towns, cities and households and individuals licensed to renovate agricultural land, this is a very right policy and popular with people when many problems have been solved. and contribute to promoting local socio-economic development. Therefore, the majority of households and individuals licensed to renovate agricultural land have coordinated with contracting units to perform the ground improvement combined with fully reclamation of leveling land in accordance with the plan, exploiting the right location and licensed area. After being licensed and conducting land improvement, many individual households have abandoned the improved land, did not implement the land recovery plan, planted trees for environmental restoration … according to regulations. Along with that, the fulfillment of financial obligations towards the State, such as: fees for granting mineral mining rights, environmental protection fees, royalties … are fully implemented by households in accordance with regulations. . Land reclamation is carried out from the actual needs of land users to facilitate production. The process of licensing for ground improvement in combination with salvaging land for reclamation has made good use of backfill resources to meet the national goal of building a new countryside (NTM), building infrastructure. floors, land fund creation and production development projects. This issue not only makes an important contribution to socio-economic development but also increases revenue for the local budget; At the same time, to limit the illegal exploitation of land and leveling … * There have been variable generals in implementation In addition to the above positive results, the reflection of voters to the press agencies and the inspection and examination of the authorities shows that: many of the following households and individuals When licensed by the competent authorities (usually these fully renovated land mines are only licensed for a period of 12 months-PV), this license has turned into a “talisman” called “land mine”. exploiting, and then actively exploiting minerals. In many cases, the exploitation exceeds the height, depth and reserves; There are even a few cases of “forgetting” the back ground work or in other words, after the mineral recovery did not comply with the original commitment dossier when applying for a license or having done it, it was just as follows. coping mode. Because the main purpose of the households, this individual is to take advantage of the policy to apply for permits and create a land improvement “cover” to sell land for profit. It is worth mentioning that, taking advantage of this policy, many households are licensed to reclaim land with full use of leveling land with the volume of hundreds of thousands of m3 / year. In particular, there is a situation that some households have taken advantage of exploiting the neighboring land areas even though they have not been licensed to gain illicit profits. The areas assessed as “hot” in the exploitation of landfill are the districts: Quang Trach, Bo Trach, Quang Ninh and Le Thuy. After that, the violations were detected by the People’s Committees of districts, towns, cities and functional agencies and strictly dealt with administrative violations. Specifically, many cases were fined for administrative violations with a fine of 45 million VND, forced to pay back the illicit profits from illegal land exploitation more than 100 million VND / case of violation; At the same time, the license granted. However, these violations have caused pollution, environmental degradation and changed land use purposes, significantly affecting the flora, leaving negative public opinion among the people. * It is necessary to seriously and effectively implement the direction of the Provincial People’s Committee Immediately detecting the above situation, in recent years, the provincial People’s Committee has issued many documents directing to strengthen the state management in exploiting land and leveling in the province. Mr. Phan Xuan Tuan, Head of the Department of Minerals (Department of Natural Resources and Environment), said that, in the face of this fact, to follow the instructions of the Provincial People’s Committee and to manage well the cases of licensing for ground improvement with full recovery of leveling land. Department of Natural Resources and Environment has also issued many documents to direct to districts, towns and cities. Documents of the Department suggest localities to strengthen and improve the quality of inspection, supervision and appraisal of documents to ensure that the land improvement does not cause major terrain distortions, environmental pollution and waste. resource fees for projects that allow ground improvement in combination with full recovery of land and leveling; strengthen inspection and supervision and take effective measures to promptly prevent and strictly handle violations. Special note, the renovation does not affect the safety of power lines, lakes, irrigation dams and other construction works. One point of land improvement with land salvage shows signs of environmental degradation and changes in land use purposes, significantly affecting the flora … The Department requires districts, cities, towns and communes to closely monitor the reserves allowed to be exploited, to improve and restore the environment and plant trees after harvesting, to avoid taking advantage of ground improvement to illegal mineral exploitation. In case of detecting a violation, it shall be strictly handled according to law provisions. Along with that, it is required that households and individuals that have been licensed to renovate agricultural land combined with fully reclaiming land and leveling will soon complete the project in accordance with the approved plan. In front of the direction of the Provincial People’s Committee and the Department of Natural Resources and Environment, the leaders of the People’s Committees of Quang Trach, Bo Trach, Quang Ninh, Le Thuy districts … said that they continued to direct the specialized departments and the People’s Committees of communes to strengthen the state management of minerals with the inspection and supervision of the implementation of plans on ground improvement with full recovery of land and leveling by households and individuals in accordance with regulations; promptly detect and strictly handle violations; request households to exploit too deeply to allow leveling, planting trees to restore the environment in the exploited area; calculating retrospective collection of fees for granting mineral mining rights and related fees for households who illegally exploit land. For cases of serious violations, in addition to handling violations according to the provisions of law, a decision to revoke the granted license will also be issued. In addition, the People’s Committee should strengthen the propaganda, dissemination and education of the law on minerals; mobilize people not to illegally exploit, purchase, store and transport minerals; detecting and denouncing organizations and individuals that illegally exploit minerals … Districts, towns, cities, communes, wards, functional units need to seriously implement and have effective solutions to well implement the instructions of the Provincial People’s Committee …
