HANOI (Vietnam News/Asia News Network): Hanoi's decision to partially lift the lockdown in parts of the capital city marked as low risk of Covid-19 has allowed a large number of businesses to resume operations, said firms.

Nguyễn Thái Sơn, deputy director of an aluminium producer in Phú Thị Industrial Park in Gia Lâm District, said the district authority has given the green light for his workers to commute to work from their residences. It has significantly lightened the burden for the firm after a long period of implementing the 3-on-site production model, which has been financially and logistically taxing.
