A conference on the results of the project was held in Dak Lak province on April 21 with the participation of Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai.

The State’s key power project, aimed at reducing poverty and boosting socio-economic development in the five Central Highland provinces, has a total capital of more than VND1.3 trillion - 85 percent of which comes from the state budget.

Under the project, which was approved by the government in 2006, the Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) group has been responsible for installing transformers and connecting medium- and low-tension electricity lines to households.
