A representative from the Hanoi Department of Education and Training emphasized that the claims of leaked exam questions are false and have caused significant public confusion, impacting the integrity of the city's high-school entrance exams. The controversy arose after social media reports suggested that the official Literature exam questions, which included a question on the poem “Bep Lua” (Fireplace) by Bang Viet, were leaked prior to the exam, prompting the use of backup questions. Following the exams, the Hanoi Department of Education and Training will commence the grading process. By July 2: Exam scores will be published on the Department's Electronic Information Portal.

HÀ NỘI — Domestic air ticket prices have become a headache for many families and tourists making travel decisions. This has not only affected consumer pockets, but the domestic tourism and aviation industries as well, analysts have said. The average price for economy class tickets on Việt Nam's domestic routes has surged by up to 25 per cent year-on-year.
