Flexible, close to people to clear land

construction of National Highway 28B — Construction of National Highway 28B

1. In the context of many projects being stuck with land acquisition, there are some localities that are flexible and close to the people, grasping the aspirations and thoughts of the people, promoting the benefits of the project for the people who are compensated and cleared the land (GPMB) and for the community and society. From here, some communes and wards in the Southeast of the province such as: Phan Son, Luong Son, Suoi Kiet, Tan Hai, Phuoc Hoi, La Gi... have mobilized people to hand over the land first and then compensate later. Thanks to that, it has created conditions for construction implementation, contributing to the disbursement of public investment capital.

In Phan Son commune, where the National Highway 28B Improvement and Upgrade Project is taking place, the section passing through the commune is an example. Construction started in April 2024 and is expected to be completed in December 2025, but recently, the construction unit has been sluggish, unable to ensure progress, and blamed the lack of land. In fact, before Bac Binh district, the communes with land in the project had mobilized people to hand over land to the construction unit in advance. Only the areas with construction projects have people not yet handed over, including 6.3 km of land that is currently stuck in Luong Son commune. During the transition to a 2-level local government, compensation and site clearance work was interrupted, and after the merger, Phan Son commune established a Compensation and Site Clearance Team for National Highway 28B. In addition to the commune People's Committee Chairman, the team also has the participation of organizations to grasp the aspirations of the people, including the unresolved concerns.

Mr. Mai Hong Dang - Chairman of the People's Committee of Phan Son Commune said: The team has approached the people, discussed in detail the issues that people did not understand, and listened to their concerns. Thereby, both encouraging and sharing with the people, and at the same time, combining persuasion with the people to understand the meaning and importance of the benefits of the project to improve and upgrade National Highway 28B, the section passing through the commune, so that the people agree to support and closely coordinate with the local government to carry out well the stages of the land acquisition work. Thanks to the high consensus, households and individuals whose land was recovered continue to hand over the site to implement the investment project according to the general progress... According to Mr. Dang, on October 20, 2025, the People's Committee of the commune issued a decision approving the detailed compensation plan for the remaining 10 cases. It is expected to pay money, compensate, and support resettlement for the above 10 cases before October 31, 2025. Thus, by the end of October, Phan Son commune will complete compensation work to hand over 100% of the site to the construction unit.

2. Mr. Tran Thanh Que - Vice Chairman of Tan Hai Commune People's Committee said that in the commune, a local resident had just voluntarily dismantled the construction site to hand over the site to the commune and the construction unit of the DT719B Coastal Axis project, Hon Lan - Tan Hai section, but unfortunately injured his leg. That was Mr. Tran Thanh Ton, in Ba Dang village, the household that handed over the site to build resettlement houses in Ba Dang in the first phase. On October 2, he dismantled his old house and was unfortunately injured. Upon hearing the news, the Commune People's Committee, the Provincial Traffic Project Management Board, and the construction unit visited and gave gifts. Notably, as soon as he learned about the incident, Member of the Provincial Party Standing Committee, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Hong Hai sent gifts to Mr. Ton to encourage his spirit as well as to acknowledge his family's contribution in setting an example and handing over the site early so that the construction project could meet progress.

Mr. Tran Thanh Ton, although undergoing medical treatment, was very happy to receive gifts from Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Hong Hai, the Commune People's Committee and related units.

The coastal axis route DT719B, Hon Lan - Tan Hai section has a total length of about 10.4 km with a total investment of 663,883 billion VND. The route is very important in transporting goods, especially connecting the area to develop Dinh Thay Thim tourist area and connecting the sea area from La Gi to Tien Thanh, Mui Ne. Currently, about 94% of the site has been handed over, meeting the construction plan.

To do this, Tan Hai Commune People's Committee has resolutely implemented synchronous solutions, both legal procedures and taking advantage of contact with people to propagate and mobilize people to hand over the land first. Mr. Tran Thanh Que - Vice Chairman of Tan Hai Commune People's Committee said: After Tan Hai Commune was established, the construction project of the coastal axis of DT719B road, Hon Lan - Tan Hai section still had 19 households. Previously, La Gi Town People's Committee approved the compensation, support, resettlement plan and decided to reclaim the land. However, when implementing, the households did not agree to receive compensation and hand over for construction. After Tan Hai Commune People's Committee received it, they mobilized 100% of the households to hand over the land.

3. In Suoi Kiet commune, the project to upgrade and expand Ba Ta - Tra Tan road has a route length of 15.1 km, with a total investment of 102,165 billion VND. The project started on January 11, 2024 and is expected to be completed by the end of 2025. To date, the project has completed about 98%.

Ba Ta Street - Tra Tan — Ba Ta - Tra Tan Road is a bright spot in site clearance and construction finishing early

The road is located in the largest rubber growing area in the province, so in the past, there were many households setting up tents to sell food and necessary items for latex tapping workers. In addition, there were also construction works that people built on the roadside to buy rubber latex... In order to have a site for the construction unit to complete on schedule, the commune organized many campaigns to mobilize people to dismantle, at the same time, propagandize and mobilize people to hand over the site early so that the road could be constructed smoothly and without interruption.

According to the People's Committee of Suoi Kiet commune, the road passing through the commune has a total recovered area of 19.86 hectares/140 records, including 136 households and 4 organizations. There has been a notice of land recovery for 140/140 households, individuals and organizations to implement the project. For 2 households that have compensation work to expand Ba Ta - Tra Tan road, an area of about 23.8 m2 in the Ba Ta bridge area has completed land surveying, handed over records to Tanh Linh Land Fund Development Board, and continued to carry out compensation and support procedures...

These are some communes that have done well in site clearance work, thanks to their flexible application of being close to the people. Hopefully, these bright spots will be replicated in many other localities.
