A representative of a business participating in the auction said that quite a few units came to the hall of the People's Committee of Dien Ban town from the morning of October 18. However, because the auction lasted for a long time, the units continuously bid high prices to win the exploitation rights, so many people had to leave one after another.

It was not until 4:08 am this morning, October 19, when the price of 370 billion VND was announced by a company in Da Nang, that the decision was made. Thus, from the beginning to the end of the session, it took more than 20 hours.
