The Cat Tuong Trade and Service Joint Stock Company is a trading company on electronic sales and press release agents. We do not do transportation services, our vehicle is only serve for the operation of the company, our company has only 01 (one) truck. Recently, traffic police has often stopped our truck for punishment because there is no badge "truck". The application of sanctions is based on the Decree 86/2014 / ND-CP as follows:

 “Article 3 of Decree No. 86/2014 / ND-CP:

1. Transport business by auto is the use of auto to transport goods or passengers on road for profits; includes transport business with direct and indirect money collection.
