Mr. Khuat Viet Hung spoke at the meeting

On the side of the National Traffic Safety Committee, Mr. Khuat Viet Hung suggested that when investigating the case, Dong Nai Provincial Police should focus on clarifying the journey monitoring device on the 16-seat passenger bus, checking the status to see if it is on or off.
