BHG - Public assets are the material basis for implementing State management, providing public services, and are an important resource for socio-economic development, ensuring national defense and security. In recent times, all levels and sectors from the provincial to the grassroots have paid attention to leading, directing and thoroughly grasping, raising awareness and responsibility of each organization and individual, contributing to strict management, economical and effective use of public assets; preventing and repelling loss, waste, corruption and other acts of encroachment on public assets.
After the Law on Management and Use of Public Assets (2017) took effect, the Provincial People's Council - People's Committee promptly issued documents on decentralization of management and use of public assets; regulations on standards and norms for the use of public assets to publicize, clarify, and clearly decentralize the authority and responsibility of units and individuals. Departments, branches, districts and cities, according to decentralization, have proactively issued documents on management and use of public assets, and registered the purchase of public assets according to regulations. The development of regulations on management, use, disclosure, and inventory of public assets has been seriously implemented by agencies and units.

The management and use of public assets such as houses, land, constructions and other assets attached to land are carried out according to the prescribed authority. From 2018 to 2022, the Provincial People's Committee has issued 45 decisions approving plans to rearrange and handle houses and land of agencies, units and organizations in the area with a total of 2,807 houses and land.

There is still a situation where the land of some enterprises has been left unused for many years, or the allocated land area has not been fully used, and has been leased out in violation of regulations. Some public service units have been allocated land but have not had a long-term land use plan, causing waste of land resources. Many public service units have locations and commercial advantages but have not had a plan to use it effectively.
