During the meeting, based on the central government's directives and the guidelines from the Committee for Ethnic Minority Affairs, the provincial People's Committee issued a decision to establish the Steering Committee, subcommittees to assist the Steering Committee, and assigned related agencies to guide localities in the implementation process.
