DIRECTIVE

This situation is quite common and prolonged; it does not set a good example in implementing the policy of thrift and using domestically produced goods.

The Ministry of Finance shall take the lead in coordinating with relevant agencies to provide specific guidance on the implementation of this policy in accordance with actual circumstances.
