The electricity production and distribution sector achieved nearly 2.3 trillion VND, indicating a 4.47 percent growth, while the water supply, waste treatment, and sewage sector reached 622.4 billion VND, reflecting a substantial 17.3 percent increase.

It presents a challenging task, demanding significant efforts from all levels, related sectors, and the business community in Thai Nguyen in the coming period.
