Perspective of social housing project in Ha Khanh urban area phase 1.

The social housing project in Ha Khanh urban area phase 1 with an area of 2 hectares invested by FLC Group was approved for investment by the Provincial People's Committee on August 1, 2025. The scale of the project includes 3 9-storey buildings with a total of 765 apartments. Each apartment has an area of 50-70m2.

The apartments will be designed in a modern, optimized way, ensuring standards of ventilation, natural light and fire safety. Located in the overall urban area, social housing buildings will benefit from a synchronous technical infrastructure system. The project area is considered to have a favorable location, close to the city's administrative center and quickly connected to major roads, industrial clusters, hospitals, and traditional markets. This location helps residents easily access available infrastructure and public services. This project aims to concretize the Government 's policy of using 20% of the land fund of commercial housing projects to serve social housing development.

To ensure the construction progress, the investor mobilized nearly 200 workers to work in 3 shifts continuously including Saturday and Sunday. Up to now, the project progress has reached about 50%.

Mr. Nguyen Xuan Hoa, Investment Director of FLC Group in Quang Ninh , said: We are mobilizing maximum human resources, equipment, and machinery to ensure construction progress, quality, and landscape as committed to the province.

When put into operation, the project will contribute to reducing housing pressure in Ha Long and neighboring areas, especially in the segment for people with middle and low incomes. Not only contributing to solving the housing problem, we hope that each apartment here is not only a place to live, but also a foundation for people with middle and low incomes to stabilize their lives, have more opportunities to access better living conditions. In addition, we are continuing to complete the dossier to submit to the Provincial People's Committee for approval of the investment policy for the social housing project in Ha Khanh 2 urban area with a scale of 900 apartments.
