Meanwhile, Binh Duong province is a center of many large industrial zones and many enterprises often change their structure and human resources.

It is forecasted that the tricks will be more complicated and difficult to detect in the coming Lunar New Year, requiring competent forces in Binh Duong to closely and effectively cooperate with each other to contribute for healthy development, and to stabilize the market to protect the interests of consumers and manufacturers, and to promote the economy.

At the same time, accelerating the collection and processing of information and classification of objects to perform the tasks of anti-smuggling and illegal cross-border goods transportation; to develop plans to fight against smuggling, trade frauds and counterfeit goods before, during and after the Lunar New Year 2018.
