The quality, yields and prices of durian have fallen in Đắk Lắk this year, largely due to challenging weather conditions and farmers’ lack of experience.
Four people died after a sleeper coach travelling on the Hồ Chí Minh Highway through Đắk Lắk Central Highlands province encountered a rainstorm and slid on the road.
The second Krông Pắk durian festival will be held from August 31 to September 2 in the Central Highlands province of Đắk Lắk, aiming to honour durian growers, attract investment and promote the development of a sustainable durian ecosystem.
PM Phạm Minh Chính said Đắk Lắk must elevate its status to the national average level, becoming a distinctive and attractive destination for both domestic and foreign tourists.
