My Duc District's People's Committee Chairman Le Van Sang said the local authority had planned a safer and more bustling festival this year. Shops, advertisement banners and food shops would be strictly controlled to offer the best service to tourists.
Environmental protection also would be enhanced by the relic management board which planned to process rubbish following guidance by the Hanoi Natural Resources and Environment Department.
