At the end of May 2025, Lao Cai Provincial People's Committee launched a peak emulation campaign "90 days and nights to complete site clearance for the investment project to build the Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong railway (section passing through Lao Cai province), striving to hand over the clean site in August 2025.
After the launch, the campaign immediately received strong response from districts and cities where the project passed through.
In Bao Thang district, where the railway runs for 25.5 km, 11 working groups were established with more than 40 officials spread out to all communes. Land officials took inventory of fields, gardens, and corn fields to measure and record every meter of land, every tree trunk, and every architectural object. People clearly saw the openness and transparency when the officials checked every tree stump and every meter of fence.
The staff here go to the inventory during the day and enter the price assessment documents at night. To date, nearly half of the households in the affected area of the district have been counted, many files have completed the compensation plan and are waiting for approval.
Not only Bao Thang, in Lao Cai city, a locality with more than 15 km of railway passing through, land clearance is also being carried out urgently. Lao Cai city has more than 192 hectares of land that needs to be recovered and many routes are being adjusted, which is a big challenge.
However, the synchronous participation of authorities at all levels has created a clear momentum. The Fatherland Front and organizations actively contacted people, organized dialogues right in villages and hamlets so that people could understand the policy and share common difficulties.
Each family and residential group is encouraged to voluntarily hand over the land, avoiding coercion and complaints.
It is known that, in addition to land acquisition, Lao Cai province has also proactively implemented 16 resettlement projects with a total investment of nearly 300 billion VND. The top priority is "on-site resettlement", maintaining the livelihoods of the people. At the same time, 4 projects to level the ground and build technical infrastructure to serve the resettlement area are also being implemented in parallel, with a total capital of nearly 1,000 billion VND.
Recently, at the meeting of the Steering Committee for Site Clearance for the Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong Railway Construction Investment Project (section passing through Lao Cai province), Mr. Vu Xuan Cuong, Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Lao Cai Provincial People's Council requested that before the end of district-level activities; agencies and units, especially districts and cities, need to pay close attention and resolutely implement the site clearance work to serve the Project in order to soon hand over to the Railway Project Management Board (Ministry of Construction). The time is very urgent while the workload is very large and heavy, requiring localities where the Railway Project passes through to focus on implementing and completing many contents in June 2025.
Standing Deputy Secretary of Lao Cai Provincial Party Committee Nguyen Xuan Cuong requested localities to carry out statistics and compensation while implementing the construction of resettlement areas. At the same time, localities need to handle and resolve the contents; transfer and receive tasks and work of district and commune levels to ensure continuity and unity in the implementation of the Project in the coming time.
The Standing Deputy Secretary of Lao Cai Provincial Party Committee emphasized that the implementation of compensation, support and resettlement work for the Project must ensure compliance with policies and regimes, be timely and have flexible and appropriate application.
