Executive Summary

Project description: The Government of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam has received a loan

from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) is to improve the urban environment and climate

resilience in Buon Me Thuot in the central highland region and the coastal cities of Ha Tinh and

Tam Ky resulting in improved environmental quality and increased coverage of urban infrastructure

and climate change in the three cities.

The Project consists of 11 sub-projects in three secondary cities in the central region of Vietnam,

including Buon Ma Thuot (Dak Lak province), Ha Tinh (Ha Tinh province) and Tam Ky (Quang

Nam province). Two out of the eleven sub-projects are in Tam Ky and they are Thach Ban River

Dyke completion work and Dien Bien Phu urban road construction. Land acquisition is required for

both packages: (i) Package TK-01: Ban Thach River Dike; and (ii) Package TK-02: Dien Bien Phu

road.

The PPC of Quang Nam has planned the construction of the Dien Bien Phu Road with a total

length of 12,24km. The road was divided into 3 parts for construction. The first part with 6.31 km

length was split into various sections, from Hung Vuong crossroads to the new coastal highway

(emergency escape road or route129) and is under construction with funding from SCDP. The

construction work is included in packages TK-02A and TK-02B. The second part now under

construction with 4,14 km length, will link Tam Ky city with the new expressway, and is funded by

Quang Nam Province’s budget. The last part with 1,8 km length, from the emergency escape road

(129) to the coastline (Km6+309.8 to Km8+106.22) has not been constructed yet. Therefore, to

facilitate completion of the whole traffic route, the PPC of Quang Nam decided to construct the

Dien Bien Phu extension road by the Decision No. 4727/QD-UBND dated 30 December 2016

which gives approval for the FS.

This addendum resettlement plan is prepared for the last section of the Dien Bien Phu road

extension that is described above, and is based on (i) the approved FS by the Decision No.

4727/QD-UBND dated 30 December 2016 of Quang Nam PPC (ii) agreement of ADB on the Mid

Term Review Mission from 3 to 8 May 2017, and (iii) results of DMS, public consultations with APs

and the replacement cost survey.

Scope of impact: The Dien Bien Phu extension road subproject affects 65 households (323

people) out of which 57 households (305 people) are severely affected households, and of which

15 households (44 people) have to relocate (07 out of these 15 households will also lose

agricultural land) and 50 households (261 people) lose more than 10% of their agriculture land.

There is 01 vulnerable HHs (this is the poor female headed HH with dependents).

Socio-Economic survey of affected households: The socio-economic status of the affected

households was surveyed by the PMIS Consultant from 27 June to 07 July 2017. Interviews were

held with 63 out of 65 affected households to assess the socio-economic status of the people

affected by land acquisition.

Community consultation and information dissemination: 02 Meetings and public

consultations were held in each affected commune during the preparation and implementation of

the subprojects. The first meeting was held in Tam Phu commune on 10 January 2017 and the

second meeting was held in Tam Thanh commune on 14 January 2017.These meetings

disseminated compensation policies and rehabilitation and support measures. The consultations

with the households include the compensation unit prices for affected assets, project plans,

announcement of the application results of compensation unit prices, interests and entitlements

11

and explanations to questions and complaints and the grievance redress mechanism. The Project

Information Manual (PIB) was delivered to the affected families and their communities.

Grievance redress mechanism is set up to address complaints and questions from affected

households related to land acquisition, resettlement and compensation as quickly and

satisfactorily as possible. The families have rights to make any claims regarding the land

acquisition, resettlement, compensation policies, benefits, rates and payment of compensation,

strategies and procedures for resettlement as well as other support programs. According to the

procedures for complaint settlement, the people's committees of the communes, wards and social

institutions play the settlement role at commune level while the district/province people's

committees will be responsible for resolving complaints at the district and province levels. The

courts will be the final level for the settlement of complaints of the affected households. The

grievance redress mechanism will be published to the affected people during public meetings and

consultations.

The Compensation, Allowances and Resettlement Policy: The Compensation, Allowances

and Resettlement Policy is based on the approved resettlement plan of the first section of the

Dien Bien Phu road, newest applicable laws and regulations of the Quang Nam Province on land

acquisition, compensation, resettlement, rehabilitation to ensure that the entitlement is upgraded

and satisfied the ADB's policy on involuntary resettlement as defined in ADB’s Social Safeguard

Policy Statement (SPS-2009). If there is any discrepancy between the regulations of the

Government of Vietnam and ADB, the ADB rules, policies and procedures will be applied.

The rights and entitlements of the affected people (APs) are presented in the entitlement matrix

with the affected people as identified during the detailed measurement survey (DMS). This

entitlement matrix will be applied for preparation of the compensation plan to ensure the

restoration or improvement of APs’ incomes and livelihoods that are affected by the subproject.

Entitlements: The project entitlements adopted are based on ADB’ SPS 2009 on IRP,

Government Laws, Quang Nam Province People’s Committee Decisions on land acquisition,

resettlement and assistance. These entitlements were discussed and agreed with AHs during

public consultations. All compensation is based on the principle of replacement cost. The Da

Nang Evaluation and Financial Services JSC was employed by Quang Nam PPC to carry out a

replacement cost survey (RCS).

Relocation and resettlement: All AHs will be compensated in cash for their affected residential

land and structures. During consultations with AHs, the 14 relocated AHs agreed to move to

Tan Thanh and Tam Phu Resettlement Sites .

Income Restoration and Rehabilitation: The AHs will be provided with various types of cash

assistance for income and livelihood restoration and life stabilization as per government laws

and regulations in addition to payment for affected land and non-land assets. An income

restoration program will be started in Quarter 4, 2017 which will provide cooking training course

to 85 APs.

Institutional Arrangements: Quang Nam PPC is the Executing Agency (EA) for the project.

And Tam Ky City PMU is the Implementing Agency (IA). At the city level, the Tam Ky City

People’s Committee, together with relevant line agencies such as the city land fund

development center (LFDC) and the local authorities will be responsible for the implementation

of the RP.

12

Resettlement Budget: The compensation for affected households is based on the replacement

cost of affected assets determined by the Da Nang Evaluation and Financial Services JSC . The

total budget for the implementation of the resettlement plan is VND 22,189,834,865 equivalent to

USD 990,618. This cost includes: (i) The cost of compensation and support for AHs; (ii) The cost

of implementation administration and; (iii) contingency cost. The People's Committee of Quang

Nam province has a responsibility to provide adequate budget and to make timely payments of

the compensation. The PMU in combination with the city land fund development center is

responsible for the direct payments to affected households.

Implementation Schedule: The addendum RP will be prepared in the 4th quarter of 2017 and

should get approval within 2 months afterwards. The construction is expected to be implemented

over one year and will commence in end of 4th quarter of 2017. The detailed of schedule of

resettlement activities are presented in Table 23 below.

Monitoring and Reporting: The Internal Monitoring is the responsibility of the PPC through

PMU with assistance from the resettlement specialist of the Project Management and

Implementation Consultant (PMIS). PMU will submit quarterly monitoring reports to ADB. PMU

has engaged an external monitor (EM) to provide an independent periodic review and assessment

of (i) achievement of resettlement objectives; (ii) changes in living standards and livelihoods; (iii)

restoration of the economic and social base of the affected people; (iv) effectiveness and

sustainability of entitlements; and (v) the need for further mitigation measures as required. Semi-

annual external monitoring reports will be submitted to ADB and PMU.

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT AND SUBPROJECT

1.1. Background of the project

1. Developing the secondary cities of Viet Nam is vital to forestalling the spatial and economic

disparities that can jeopardize the country’s sustained economic growth and attainment of its

development aspirations. Three cities have been selected under the Secondary Cities

Development Project: Tam Ky (Quang Nam Province), Buon Ma Thuot (Dak Lak Province)

and Ha Tinh (Ha Tinh Province).

2. The selected cities are rapidly developing urban areas whose potentials have been

constrained by weak infrastructures services. The economy of these cities, though still largely

agriculture based, indicates significant potential for newly emerging industries and services.

Road development, flood protection and drainage and solid waste management are the three

main development orientations under the SCDP.

1.2. Sub-Components in Tam Ky City

3. Tam Ky is the capital of Quang Nam Province. The core driver of economic growth for Tam

Ky and the surrounding area is the Chu Lai (SEZ). This is a very large area of some 27,000

ha, including 3,000 ha of industrial land.

4. Disaster management is a real concern for the coastal communities in Tam Ky and in Quang

Nam Province, where in the past inadequate storm warning systems and climate resilient

escape routes and rescue routes have not been adequate.

5. The existing roads and transport infrastructure are also not sufficiently attractive to make Tam

Ky competitive.

6. To answer to the above concerns, flood management and strategic roads development sub-

components have been proposed for Tam Ky City:

� Flood Management – Ban Thach River Dyke Completion and Upgrading

� Strategic Roads Development – Dien Bien Phu Road

7. The construction of Dien Bien Phu Road is required for the following key reasons:

� To support Tam Ky planned urban expansion through (a) Residential Development Areas; (b) Chu Lai Special Economic Zone Development; (c) Planned Recreation/Tourism and Cultural Development;

� To develop a strategic road link from the proposed national expressway to the national coastal road (under construction); and

� To improve disaster management facilities by linking Tam Ky urban areas (existing and proposed) to the national coastal road.

8. The two parts of Dien Bien Phu Road with total length of 10.45 km (the red section in figure

1-3) are under construction with funding from both ADB and Quang Nam PPC’s budget. The

third part of Dien Bien Phu (Dien Bien Phu 3B) road extension is about 1,8 km (the yellow

section in figure 1-3) and extends from the emergency escape road (129) to Tam Ky Coastline

(Km6+309.8 - Km8+106.22). The total road width including Right of Way (ROW) is 20m wide.

14

9. This addendum to updated Resettlement Plan only focuses on the third part of Dien Bien Phu

road (Dien Bien Phu 3B).

Figure 1 Dien Bien Phu Strategic Road

1.3. The objectives of the Addendum

10. The resettlement plan ensures that the subproject will (i) avoid involuntary resettlement

wherever possible; (ii) minimize involuntary resettlement by exploring subproject and design

alternatives; (iii) enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons in real

terms relative to pre-subproject levels; and (iv) improve the standards of living of the displaced

poor and other vulnerable groups.

11. This document is prepared for the last 1,8 km section of Dien Bien Phu road and is based on

the approved detailed design for the road, results of the DMS, replacement cost survey and

consultations with APs.

12. This Addendum is the guiding document that identifies the key issues to address in reconciling

the requirements of ADB’s SPS 2009 on Involuntary Resettlement with national and provincial

government policies on compensation, assistance and resettlement. Concerns for involuntary

resettlement have been integrated in this document and will govern subproject design,

implementation, and monitoring.

15

13. This Addendum includes the following:

(i) Policy and procedural guidelines for land acquisition, compensation, resettlement, and strategies that will help ensure full restoration of the AH’s livelihood and standard of living;

(ii) Identification of households and communities to be adversely affected by the subproject, where they are located, what compensation and related alleviating measures is to be provided to them and how and when these measures will be carried out;

(iii) A plan on how AHs will be involved in the various stages of the subproject, including resolution of grievances; and.

(iv) An estimated budget for resettlement implementation.

14. The Addendum is made to minimize negative impacts of sub-project and ensure mitigation

and compensation measures, which will help affected people recover their living standards at

least equal to their condition before the project implementation. To accomplish this, the

resettlement plan will achieve the following objectives:

� Determine the project’s affected areas and negative impacts on affected people as well as the impact on their property and economic - cultural and livelihood impacts;

� Determine affected people’s rights and entitlements to the compensation and support based on the replacement cost principle and the requirements of the national laws and the ADB policies;

� Describe the project’s procedures for compensation and support policy, including the grievance redress mechanism; and

� Describe institutional arrangements and financial requirements to implement plans and monitor the implementation of the resettlement plan.

1.4. Measures taken to Minimize Negative Impacts

15. During IOL, the basic design was shown in the public consultation meetings to obtain the

comments from AHs, their comments were recorded and considered for adjusting or

correcting during prepare the detailed design. The detailed design was presented again to

AHs to let them contribute their opinion and census to minimize the land acquired area of the

subproject but still harmonize with city planning.

16. A public information booklet (PIB) that explains, among others, the policy on cut-off date for

eligibility, will be distributed to the AHs and local governments during the preparation of the

RP. PIB will be distributed to the AHs and local governments, as needed, following ADB‟s

concurrence of the Project RP. Other than the afore mentioned, Government will ensure that

the acquisition of assets, payment of compensation, assistance and rehabilitation of the AHs

will be completed prior to the issuance of notice to proceed (NTP) to start construction works.

17. Meaningful consultations were conducted with affected households on January 2017 to obtain

their expectation toward subproject, contributive comments for basic design to minimize

negative resettlement impacts and specially to receive their consensus. In the consultation

meeting, the design and its explanation were presented to AH to obtain their comments to

avoid the land acquisition as much as possible. The expected construction plan is reviewed

to avoid their cropping season or they are informed at least prior 3 months for their

arrangement of their business or plantation plan. The local people suggested the timing of

daily construction schedule to avoid storm season. The daily construction activities are

16

discussed with households to avoid disturbance of their business and travelling. see the

Appendix 2: Minutes of Public Consultation Meetings)

2. SCOPE OF LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT

18. The DMS was conducted by the Land Fund Development Center (LFDC) of Tam Ky City from

October 2016 to 22/03/2017. The DMS collected disaggregated data on all affected land and

assets (structures, trees, crops) as well as affected businesses. The census obtained detailed

information on livelihoods, household composition, income and education qualifications.

2.1. Permanent impacts

19. The DMS results show that 67 families/organizations in 02 communes of Tam Ky City are affected by the component, including 65 households (323 APs) and 02 organizations (Commune People's Committee). Among the 65 AHs, 57 households are severely affected, of which 15 households have to relocate; 7 out of 15 relocated AHs are affected by house and 07 other AHs are affected by both house and agricultural land. In total of 57 severely AHs, there are 50 households that lose over 10% of their productive land consist of 07 households that lose 10% to 30%, 21 households that will lose 30% to 70% and 22 households that will lose more than 70% of their productive land.

House categories are defined as follow: Category 4 houses are single storey solid construction structure (usually made in bricks)

Category 3 houses are having two floors firm structure (usually made in steel and concrete)

2.1.3. Impacts on secondary structures and tombs

22. The quantity of affected structures was measured for compensation, including ancestral

temples, fences and cement floors. There are 45 derelict tombs and 01 ancestral temples to

be relocated. The Tam Ky LFDC in combination with the local authorities will relocate these

derelict-tombs to a graveyard in the city. Regarding the ancestral temple, the host family will

not receive compensation but local authorities will build another one at their request instead.

The figures for the affected structures, detailed by type are shown in

2.1.4. Impacts on crops and trees

25. There are many kinds of trees, plants and crops that will be affected, but for the crops, the

PMU will early steps to inform APs about the land acquisition plan so that they do not cultivate

on the land to be acquired. However, the PPC will decide to compensate AHs for one rice

season even though they will not cultivate at that time. There are 351 fruit trees, 3,803 timber

trees 397 decorative trees and 1498 industrial trees that will be affected. In addition, there are

other types of decorative plants planted. The details are shown in Table 5.

2.1.5. Impact on business

26. According to the results of the socio-economic survey, there are no households that do

business or have small businesses.

2.1.6. Impact on public property

27. According to the DMS result, no public properties are affected.

2.1.7. Impact on heritage/cultural herige and conservation areas

28. The component does not affect historical or cultural heritage areas, nature conservation

areas, biosphere reserves or protected forests.

2.2. Temporary impacts

29. To ensure that temporary impacts during construction are minimized, if not avoided entirely,

the civil works contract will include the following provisions: (i) contractor to pay rent for

any land required for construction work space; (ii) to the extent possible, only unused land will

be used as construction work space; and (iii) temporarily used land will be restored or

improved to its pre-Project condition. The temporary impacts of this subproject are mainly

noise and dust, but with the implementation of the appropriate mitigation measures, the

remaining temporary impact will be insignificant Together with the Tam Ky LFDC, the

contractors will undertake the corresponding compensation and allowances for all losses as

provided in the Project Entitlement matrix

2.3. Unforeseen impacts

30. Unforeseen impacts will include any impacts not included or anticipated at the time of

preparing the resettlement plan. Such unforeseen impacts may include (but not necessarily

limited to) additional displaced peoples due to change in land acquisition boundaries,

displaced peoples present at the time of or prior to the cut-off date but not included in the

census; additional losses of property not previously included in the DMS (but present in the

affected area at the time of the DMS); restrictions on land use (such as resulting from right of

way/safety zone restrictions) which were not included or anticipated at the time of the DMS.

Such unanticipated impacts will be included in the resettlement plan mitigation measures and

such mitigation measures are to be consistent with the principles and objectives of the

resettlement plan as specified in item 6.4 above. The means of inclusion will be through either

a Corrective Action Plan or Addendum to the Resettlement Plan and will require both

endorsement by the executing agency and concurrence by ADB.

2.4. Tenure status

31. The DMS results identified that all affected households have land use rights certificates

(LURC) for their affected land.

2.5. Vulnerable HHs

32. Based on the definition of vulnerable HH by the project, the survey results indicate that 01 HH

is considered vulnerable HH. This is poor female headed HH with dependents.

Province security is stable and protection in Tet and holidays is guaranteed.

3.2. Socio-economic information in six communes/wards in subproject area

3.2.1. Household demographic

38. The sample surveyed in 6 communes/wards was 1105 households. therein 303 HHs are

female-headed HHs (accounted for 27.4%). The total population of 1,105 households is 3,952

people.

21

Figure 2 Male and female in six communes

45. The proportion of people aged from 18 to below 35 years in Tan Thanh is (28.2%), from 35 to

45 years old (16.5%) and from 45 to 60 years old (27.3%). The proportion of people aged

from 45 to below 60 years is the highest age structure proportion in Hoa Khuong and An My

(24.1% and 27.3%, respectively) while for the remaining wards/communes, the age group

from 18 to 35 years old is higher than the other age groups: An Phu (31.1%), Tam Phu

(31.6%), Phuoc Hoa (32.7%) and An Xuan (38.5%),.

3.2.2. Education

46. According to the survey structure in Tam Ky City, the educational level of members in 1105

households was classified into 6 levels: (i) Illiteracy, (ii) Primary school, (iii) Secondary school,

(iv) High school, (v) Vocational training/College/Graduate, (vi) Post graduate.

23

47. According to the above data, education of household members in 7 surveyed areas is

relatively low and there is a significant proportion of illiterate people (200 people, accounting

for 5.1%). Primary level has 701 people (17.7%); secondary school accounts for the highest

rate of 1394 (35.3%), high school has 1120 people (28.3%), vocational/ college/ graduate

training has only 523 people (13.2) and post graduate 14 people (0.4%)

48. Generally, the educational level of the members of interviewed households does not

correspond with the current socio-economic development conditions especially since Vietnam

is in the process of joining the fourth industrial revolution and knowledge economy.

49. The education level of members by commune shows that the highest rates are for education

to secondary school and high school levels.

50. The communes / wards where education to secondary school level is the highest proportion

are Tan Thanh (39.9%), Hoa Huong (37.6%), An My (40.3%) and Tam Phu (34.1%).

Communes / wards where secondary school education is the highest proportion were An Phu

(32.5%); Phuoc Hoa (27.2%), and An Xuan (46.2%). According to the above data, the

educational attainment level of most people is secondary school and high school level.

3.2.3. Occupation

51. The local economy is still mainly agricultural. Therefore, the proportion of people working in

agriculture is the highest (36.3%). The highest proportion of age groups is the youth, while the

proportion of students account for 15.1%. Proportions of business people, employees, free

labourers, and privately self-employed are relatively equal (13.7%; 10.7%; 10.1%, 9.5%

respectively).

Total 3135 100

52. In addition, the proportion of people working as housewives is 2.9% and retirement is 1.8%.

The number of people that have other occupations accounts for 5.4%, and this proportion

includes the number of people who have lost their working capacity due to old age and some

people with disabilities or work-related accidents. The proportion of people engaged in

agriculture is the largest group and shows similarity with the educational level of HH members

since most of the agricultural population is educated from high school downwards.

53. The number of working-age people is 2792, of which 1235 are women (44.2%). This reflects

the similarity between men and women of working age. At the same time, the results suggest

that there should be active support to help men and women demonstrate equality and

efficiency in labor.

3.2.4. Poverty

54. In Tam Ky City, households are classified into 4 basic types: (i) Poor households; (ii) near-

poor households; (iii) Standard households; (iv) single-person households

55. Poor households and near-poor households are defined in Clause 1, Article 2 of Circular No.

17/2016/TT-BLDTBXH which guides the procedure of reviewing the poor and near-poor

households on a multi-dimensional approach for the period 2016 -2020 and is issued by the

Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs. Accordingly, poor households and near-poor

households are the households which, through annual surveys and reviews, meet the criteria

for identifying poor households and near poor households as defined in Clauses 1 and 2,

Article 2 of Decision No. 59/2015/QD-TTg dated 19/11/2015 of the Prime Minister and are

recognized by the Chairman of the Commune People's Committee on the list of poor and near

poor households in the area. Therefore, the results of the survey on the type of household

only recognizes households with certificates from the commune / ward People's Committee

for poor households or near-poor households.

56. A single-person household is defined as a household where either a mother or a father singly

raise their children, any family that is divorced, separated, single, not married yet, or has a

close relationship between a man and a woman, or if married, live separately without

wife/husband.

57. Standard households are households that do not have economic difficulties, meet the basic

needs of food, accommodation, have freedom to participate in social and cultural activities,

and have a stable life.

58. See the table below for details of household types:

Table 11 Types of households

2 Near-poor household 41 3.7

3 Standard household 1029 93.1

4 Single-person household 19 1.7

Total 1105 100.0

59. The above table shows that the number of standard households is 1029 households, (93.1%).

The number of poor households is 16 (1.4%) and the number of near-poor households is 41

(3.7%). The number of single-person households is 19 (1.7%). In Tam Ky City, the number of

poor households makes up a small proportion, so it shows that the poverty reduction activities

are well done. The proportion of standard households is the majority, and shows that the

household economy is stable but there is no great development.

60. In the 7 communes / wards, most of the households are standard households, especially, in

Phuoc Hoa, where the percentage of standard households is 100%. In the remaining

communes / wards, the majority are still standard households: Tan Thanh (93.4 %), Hoa

Huong (86.6 %), An Phu (90.7 %), An My (95.6%), Tam Phu (97.0%), An Xuan (90.9%).

61. Poor households and near-poor households are concentrated in Tan Thanh (poor

households: 1.9% and near-poor households: 3.5%); Hoa Huong (poor households: 2.2% and

near poor households: 5.4%); and An Phu (poor households: 2.2% and near poor households:

7.1%).

3.3. Socio - economic status of affected households

62. The socio-economic status (SES) of affected households is based on the SES survey that

was conducted from 28 June to 07 July 2017 on 61 out of 65 AHs (57 severely affected

households and 04 marginally affected households) living in the 2 communes of Tam Thanh

and Tam Phu and are affected by the extension of Dien Bien Phu road, from the emergency

escape road (129) to the coastline (Km6+309.8 to Km8+106.22).

26

63. The land that is to be acquired for construction of the extension of Dien Bien Phu road is

agricultural land including paddy, annual crops, perennial, forest productive and aqua-cultural

land. This road will affect residential land also and affected households will have to relocate

to the Tan Thanh and Tam Phu resettlement sites.

64. The socio-economic survey was conducted simultaneously in both Tam Thanh and Tam Phu

communes, so it is therefore presented below for both communes.

65. General information of AHs: There were 61/65 HHs are interviewed, since four HHs did not

answer due to long-term absence and these HHs are only marginally affected. Among the 61

interviewed AHs who are affected by the Dien Bien Phu road extension, there are 323

persons, of which 166 are male (51.4 %) and 157 are female (48.6 %). Among the 61 surveyed

people, there are 29 men (47.5%) and 32 women (42.5%). Of the 61 HHs, 35 heads of HHs

are male and 26 heads of HHs are female. All of these HHs belong to the Kinh group. The

average household size is 4.96.

69. The results show that the expenditure for family food and living cost accounts for about

54.74%, for health care 10.13%, education 14.25%, other expenditures e.g. weddings or

funerals and other unexpected expenditures 20.88%. This indicator shows that other

expenditures accounts for an enormous part of the total family expenditure. As for health care

expenditure, except for the government workers and healthcare-insured HHs under

preferential treatment policies, most of the HHs have to purchase voluntary healthcare

insurance for the family members. This helps reduce considerably the spending on

healthcare.

70. According to the survey result, 100% of the HHs have access to the national electricity grid.

There are 56 HHs using borehole water of which 2 HHs use dug-wells as an additional water

source, 06 HHs use tap-water with 01 of these 06 using dug-well water as an additional water

source. Most of the HHs believe that the quality of dug-well water is good and this kind of

water is used for daily bathing and cooking. There are 59 households (96.72%) that use

sanitary facilities for their family, only 2 HHs (3.28%) have no toilets.

71. Among the 59 surveyed HHs, 20 HHs have bicycles, 39 HHs have motorcycles, 1 HH has a

DVD player, 01 HH has an electric generator, 27 HHs have refrigerators, 05 HHs have

computers and 01 HH has a sewing machine.

3.4. Gender issues

72. Development projects can impact differently on men and women. The impacts on women are

often overlooked when mitigation measures focus solely on the nominal heads of households

alone to the exclusion of other household members. The compensation process associated

with land acquisition has the potential to alienate women from household assets if

compensation is not made to both spouses heading households. Female-headed households

face additional challenges associated with resettlement – especially when they are reliant on

extended family and social networks for the care and socialization of children.

73. A Gender Action Plan (GAP) has been prepared under the SCDP Project. This Gender Action

Plan includes specific actions and strategies that are gender responsive and culturally

appropriate.

4. INFORMATION DISCLOSURE AND PUBLIC CONSULTATION

4.1. Information Disclosure and dissemination

74. During RP preparation, information on the subproject was delivered to AHs through the PIB

and through loudspeakers within the project area. The compensation plan will be disclosed to

all AHs before and after submission for approval.

4.2. Public consultation

4.2.1. Meetings with Local Authorities

75. Two consultations have been organized with different stakeholders, including local authorities,

social organizations and affected people. During public consultation meeting the schedule of

the DMS, entitlements and replacement cost for compensation have been disclosed to the

Affected Households. PPMU delivered information on the results of DMS via distribution of

compensation plan to AHs. In the Public Consultation Meeting PPMU and LFDC also

presented (i) Project’s components; (ii.) GOV’s laws and procedures on land acquisition;

ADB’s policies on Involuntary Resettlement; (iii) Project’s Compensation Policy and

Entitlements; (iv) Project Impacts and Entitlements for each type of impact; (v) Preparation of

Resettlement Plan; (vi) Budget Costs and Tentative Implementation Schedule and (vii)

Grievance Redress Mechanism. The meeting allowed the participants to their questions for

clarifications on the resettlement policies, particular compensations and entitlements. Most of

AHs concerned about the compensation price, the time of handing over the land and request

to acquire the remaining land area that insufficient for cultivation. Representative of LFDC

response the AH’s question one by one. Basically, all participants confirmed that they

understood the project’s compensation policies and agreed with the replacement unit costs of

the land acquisition and resettlement plan. (Refer to Appendix 3: Minutes of Public

Consultation.

76. Results of the consultations have been summarized and are reflected in the table below.

4.2.2. Consultation with Affected HHs

77. Information dissemination and consultation with affected persons and involved agencies will

reduce the potential for conflicts and minimize the risk of Project delays. Furthermore, this

approach will enable the Project to design the resettlement and rehabilitation program so that

it meets the needs and priorities of the affected people, and in this way, potentially maximizing

the economic and social benefits of the investment. The objectives of the public information

campaign and the consultation program are as follows:

� To fully share information with the AHs about the proposed project components and activities

� To obtain information about the needs and priorities of the AHs, as well as information about their reactions to proposed policies and activities;

� To ensure that AHs are enabled to make fully informed decisions that will directly affect their incomes and quality of life, and that they will have the opportunity to participate in activities and decision-making about issues that will have a direct effect upon them;

� To obtain the maximum level of co-operation and participation of the AHs and communities in activities necessary for resettlement planning and implementation;

� To ensure transparency in all activities related to land acquisition, compensation, resettlement and rehabilitation.

5. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISM

78. A well-defined grievance redress mechanism (GRM) for SCDP has been established to

address AH’s grievances, complaints, and requests regarding land acquisition,

compensation and resettlement in a timely and satisfactory manner .

79. AHs (men and women) can lodge their complaints regarding any aspect of the land acquisition

and resettlement requirements such as entitlements, rates and payment and procedures for

the implementation of resettlement and income restoration programs.

80. The project grievance mechanism has been set up to address specific grievances relating to

SCDP but also follows the requirements of the Vietnamese laws and regulations. In Vietnam

there is an existing procedure for redress of grievances of certain fields: (i) Grievance Law

No. 02/2011/QH13 dated 11/11/2011 and Decree No.75/2012/ND-CP dated 3/10/2012; (ii)

Law on Denunciation No. 03/2011/QH13 dated 11/11/2011 and Decree No. 76/2012 dated

03/10/2012, and Circular No. 07/2014/TT-TTCP dated 31/10/2014 of the Government

Inspectorate on handling complaints, denunciations and petitions. However, ADB requires a

Grievance mechanism to be established for the project so in implementing the SCDP

Grievance Mechanism an appropriate level of communication and coordination will be

maintained with both of these departments and it has already consulted and disclosed to

affected households before get approval from PPC. And it is approved through the Official

Letter No.3882/UBND-KTTH dated 26 July 2017. The GRM for Dien Bien Phu extension road

will follow the approved GRM of SCDP project.

81. The grievance mechanism is formalized through written procedures and is specifically

addresses the requirements of both the project and affected local communities. In SCDP most

grievances will originate from persons affected by land acquisition and resettlement but can

also originate from damage to property or land caused by construction work or from

environmental damage and as a result of perceived irregularities during bidding processes.

31

82. The grievance mechanism establishes processes and procedures and these form part of an

ongoing community engagement strategy, with regular communication and feedback between

project staff and community members. Questions, suggestions and requests for information

about the project from the community members can be communicated using the same means

as for their concerns or complaints, but specific procedures will be put in place to deal with

their grievances. These procedures will be developed in a participatory manner that is

responsive to the views of all groups within the communities and other stakeholders.

83. The process of GRM for the SCDP project are described as follows.

6. POLICY AND LEGAL FRAMEWORK FOR RESETTLEMENT

84. The legal and policy framework for compensation, resettlement and rehabilitation applied for

this subproject is defined by current laws, decrees and related legal documents of the

Government of Vietnam and ADB SPS (2009) policies on Involuntary Resettlement. In the

event of any discrepancy between the laws and regulations of the Government and the

procedures and policies of the ADB on involuntary resettlement, the policies and requirements

6.2. Quang Nam province Decisions on land acquisition, compensation and resettlement in the province

88. In addition to the legal documents of the Government of Vietnam, Quang Nam province has

issued legal documents, guiding the application of the Government’s provisions and

implementation of land acquisition, compensation and resettlement in Quang Nam province.

The following decisions provide the provisions for compensation, support and resettlement

when the Government acquires land in the province:

• Decision No.43/2014/QD-UBND dated December 22, 2014 of the People's Committee of Quang Nam province that provides regulations on compensation, support and resettlement when the State recovers land in Quang Nam province;

6.3. ADB social Safeguards Policy and Requirements

89. The ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (2009) consolidates three existing safeguard policies:

involuntary resettlement (IR), indigenous peoples (IP), and environment. The objectives of the

IR policy are to (i) avoid involuntary resettlement, (ii) explore alternatives to avoid involuntary

resettlement, (iii) restore livelihoods and (iv) improve living standards of poor and vulnerable

households. The IP policy objectives are to (i) design and implement projects that fosters full

respect for IP's identity, dignity, human rights, livelihoods systems, and cultural systems, and

cultural uniqueness as defined by IPs themselves and (ii) ensure that IPs receive culturally

appropriate social and economic benefits, do not suffer adverse impacts as a result of

projects, and can participate actively in projects that affect them. The policy on

environment is discussed in a separate environment report.

90. The ADB Policy on Gender and Development (1998) adopts gender mainstreaming as a key

strategy for promoting gender equity, and for ensuring that women participate in and that their

needs are explicitly addressed in the decision-making process for development

activities. The new safeguard policy and requirements also reiterates the importance of

including gender issues in the preparation of safeguards documents at all stages to ensure

that gender concerns are incorporated, including gender-specific consultation and

information disclosure. This includes special attention to guarantee women’s assets,

property, and land-use rights and restoration/improvement of their living standards; and to

ensure that women will receive project benefits. Other policies of the ADB that have a bearing

on resettlement planning and implementation are the (i) Public Communications Policy; and

(ii) Accountability Mechanism Policy.

6.4. Project Principles

91. The objectives of the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS-2009) concerning Involuntary

Resettlement are to avoid or minimize the impacts on people, businesses and others affected

by the acquisition of land and other assets, including livelihood and income. Where

resettlement is not avoidable, the overall objective of the ADB SPS is to enhance, or at least

restore, the livelihoods of all AHs in real terms relative to pre-project levels; and to improve

the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups by compensating for

lost assets at replacement costs and by providing, as necessary, various forms of support.

The main policy principles are to:

36

a. Screen the project early on to identify past, present & future involuntary

resettlement impacts and risks. Determine the scope of resettlement planning

through a survey and/or census of AHs, including a gender analysis related to

resettlement impacts and risks.

b. Carry out meaningful consultations with affected persons, host communities, and

concerned non-government organizations. Inform all affected Households of their

entitlements and resettlement options. Ensure their participation in planning,

implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of resettlement programs. Pay

particular attention to the needs of vulnerable groups, especially those below the

poverty line, the landless, the elderly, women and children, and Indigenous Peoples,

and those without legal title to land, and ensure their participation in consultations.

Establish a grievance redress mechanism to receive and facilitate resolution of the

affected persons’ concerns. Support the social and cultural institutions of Affected

Households and their host population. Where involuntary resettlement impacts and

risks are highly complex and sensitive, compensation and resettlement decisions

should be preceded by a social preparation phase.

c. Improve, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all Affected Households through (i) land-

based resettlement strategies when affected livelihoods are land based where

possible or cash compensation at replacement value for land when the loss of land

does not undermine livelihoods, (ii) prompt replacement of assets with access to

assets of equal or higher value, (iii) prompt compensation at full replacement cost for

assets that cannot be restored, and (iv) additional revenues and services through

benefit sharing schemes where possible.

d. Provide physically and economically Affected Households with needed assistance,

including the following: (i) if there is relocation, secured tenure to relocation land,

better housing at resettlement sites with comparable access to employment and

production opportunities, social and economic integration of resettled persons into

their host communities, and extension of project benefits to host communities; (ii)

transitional support and development assistance, such as land development, credit

facilities, training, or employment opportunities; and (iii) civic infrastructure and

community services, as required.

e. Improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups,

including women, to at least national minimum standards. In rural areas, provide them

with legal and affordable access to land and resources, and in urban areas, provide

them with appropriate income sources and legal and affordable access to adequate

housing.

f. Develop procedures in a transparent, consistent, and equitable manner if land

acquisition is through negotiated settlement to ensure that those people who enter into

negotiated settlements will maintain an equal or better income and livelihood status.

g. Ensure that Affected Households without titles to land or any recognizable legal rights

to land are eligible for resettlement assistance and compensation for loss of non-land

assets.

37

h. Prepare a resettlement plan elaborating Affected Households’ entitlements, the

income and livelihood restoration strategy, institutional arrangements, monitoring and

reporting framework, budget, and time-bound implementation schedule.

i. Disclose a final resettlement plan, including documentation of the consultation process

in a timely manner, before project appraisal, in an accessible place and a form and

language(s) understandable to affected persons and other stakeholders. Disclose the

final resettlement plan and its updates to affected persons and other stakeholders.

j. Conceive and execute involuntary resettlement as part of a development project or

program. Include the full costs of resettlement in the presentation of project’s costs

and benefits. For a project with significant involuntary resettlement impacts, consider

implementing the involuntary resettlement component of the project as a stand-alone

operation.

k. Pay compensation and provide other resettlement entitlements before physical or

economic displacement. Implement the resettlement plan under close supervision

throughout project implementation.

l. Monitor and assess resettlement outcomes, their impacts on the standards of living of

Affected Households, and whether the objectives of the resettlement plan have been

achieved by taking into account the baseline conditions and the results of resettlement

monitoring. Disclose monitoring reports.

6.5. Eligibility Policy

92. All AHs who are identified in the project-impacted areas by the cut-off date will be entitled

to compensation for their affected assets and rehabilitation measures sufficient to assist them

to improve or at least maintain their pre-project living standards and income-earning capacity.

The cut-off date will be the date of the notice of land acquisition once the project will be

formally approved.

93. Those who encroach into the Component area after the cut-off date will not be entitled to

compensation or any other assistance. They will be given sufficient advance notice to vacate

premises and dismantle affected structures prior to project implementation.

6.6. Reconciliation of Government and ADB Policy on Resettlement

94. The resettlement and compensation policies for the Secondary City Development Project are

to be in accordance with ADB requirements and laws of the Government of the Socialist

Republic of Vietnam. Under the ADB policy, it is a condition of funding that the Bank’s

requirements are met in relation to resettlement, compensation and rehabilitation to all DPs

as defined in the ADB SPS 2009 on Involuntary Resettlement.

95. With the promulgation of Land Law 2013 and the guiding documents, including Decree

No.43/2014/ND-CP, Decree No.44/2014/ND-CP, Decree No.47/2014/ND-CP which are

directly related to the land acquisition, compensation, support and resettlement, the policy of

the Government of Vietnam has become more consistent with the ADB's policy statement on

involuntary resettlement (SPS 2009). However, there are some differences between the

Government’s policies and the ADB's policy on involuntary resettlement.

38

96. Decree No.43/2014/ND-CP: This decree provides common rules on the matters relating to

granting of land-use right certificates (LURC) and land-use issues such as land quota,

conditions for the transfer of land-use rights, administrative procedures related to land use

(LURC, land recovery and requisition, land dispute settlement...).

97. Decree No.44/2014/ND-CP on land prices. This Decree prescribes the valuation method for

land price; building and adjustment of land price frame; specific land valuation and consulting

activities for determining prices. Under the provisions of this decree, when the common land

prices in the market increase 20% or more compared with the maximum land prices or

reduces 20% or more compared with the minimum land prices in the land price frame for the

period of 180 days or more, the provincial People's Committee will have to adjust the land

prices.

98. Land Law 2013, Decree No.47 and Circular No.37 are the main legal instruments that give

guidance and regulations on the rights and entitlements to the compensation, support and

resettlement when the State recovers land. Under the provisions of Decree No.47/2014/ND-

CP, when the State recovers land, if users do not have papers on land-use rights stipulated

in Clause 1, 2 and 3 of Article 100 of the Land Law and Article 18 of Decree No.43/2014/ND-

CP but are eligible for the issuance of certificates of land-use rights, ownerships of houses

and other assets attached to land, they shall be compensated for land.

99. The differences between the Government’s laws and decrees and the ADB's policy on

resettlement and compensation and how to solve these differences for this subproject are

presented in the table below.

But no compensation for non-land assets in the following cases: (i) the assets subject to the land recovery as stipulated in one of items a, b, d, đ, e, I, clause 1, article 64 and items b, d, clause 1, article 65 of the Land Law 2013; the assets created after the notification on land acquisition; and (iii) unused public infrastructures and other works.

Those APs without legal title to land will be included in consultations. Ensure that APs without titles to land, or any recognizable legal rights to land, are eligible for resettlement assistance and compensation for loss of non-land assets created before cut-off date at replacement costs, including dwellings, structures and other improvements to land such as crops, irrigation, at full replacement cost.

Project affected people, without legal or recognizable legal claims to land acquired, will be equally entitled to participation in consultations and project benefit schemes where possible, and be compensated for their losses of non-land assets at replacement costs, such as dwellings and structures created before cut-off date. They will be entitled to resettlement assistance and social support to assist them to improve or at least restore their pre-project living standards and income levels.

Safeguards cover involuntary restrictions on land use or on access to legally designated parks and protected areas. Covers temporary and partial losses.

Compensation for structures

Land Law 2013, Article 89, item 1: houses/structures used for living purpose will be compensated at replacement cost. Decree 47, article 9: other houses/structures will be compensated equal to the remaining value of the affected house plus some percentage of current value but total compensation amount is not exceed value of the new house/structure.

Rate of compensation for affected houses/structures and other assets will be calculated at full replacement costs without any deductions for salvageable materials or depreciation, based upon: i) fair market value, ii) transaction costs, iii) interest accrued, iv) transitional and restoration costs, v) other applicable payments.

Full compensation at replacement cost will be paid for all affected structures without any deductions for salvageable materials or depreciation, full replacement costs, based upon: i) fair market value, ii) transaction costs, iii) interest accrued, iv) transitional and restoration costs, v) other applicable payments

Monitoring No monitoring indicators indicated

Monitoring indicators specified for internal and external monitoring and reporting. In case of significant or sensitive impacts, an external monitoring organization is required to conduct monitoring on RP implementation

The EA must undertake internal monitoring according to the critical indicators.

Since anticipated negative impacts of the project are minor, there is no need to recruit an external monitoring organization.

100. The rights and entitlements of people affected by the project (including compensation,

allowances, resettlement and livelihood restoration) are detailed in the entitlements matrix

below, which are consistent with the impacts identified during the detailed measurement

survey (DMS). It should be noted that these benefits cannot be reduced. Benefits will be

supplemented, if necessary, based on the results of the DMS and consultation with displaced

persons. Project entitlements are based on the governmental and provincial decisions about

compensation, resettlement and rehabilitation measures as well as ADB's SPS (2009) on

involuntary resettlement. The beneficiaries should be consistent with the cut-off date.

101. This matrix has been discussed and agreed with the Center for and Land Fund Development

and the PMU, in charge of the implementation of resettlement activities on behalf of Tam Ky

People’s Committee.

102. Entitlements for each type of AHs are based on the types and levels of losses. The

entitlements also provide various measures aimed at providing opportunities for AHs to

obtain development benefits from the project as well as assisting vulnerable AHs to improve

their living standards. The entitlement matrix for people affected by extension road 3B is

shown as follows.

8. RELOCATIONS AND RESETTLEMENT SITES

103. According to the DMS data and through meaningful consultations with AHs, 15 households

have to relocate and they agreed to move to Tan Thanh and Tam Phu Resettlement Sites

which are about 0.9 km from their existing residences. Additionally, these sites are also the

host resettlement sites where affected people in Dien Bien Phu road (Package TK-02) have

already relocated to live, therefore, their beneficiaries and entitlements will be kept the same,

this is one of advantages for them in a new area.

104. Two households agreed to relocate to Tan Thanh and 13 households agreed to relocate to

Tam Phu Resettlement Site. The Land Fund Development Center of Tam Ky city is

responsible for handing over land plots in the resettlement sites for relocated households and

working with the city authorities to issue Land Use Right Certificates (LURC) to the relocated

households without any fees related to the issuance of LURC. According to the Land Law

2013, LURC will include the ownership of houses constructed thereon. Therefore, LURC

should be granted to the relocated households after completion of house construction.

Figure 3 Location of Tam Ky City Resettlement Sites

9. INCOME RESTORATION PROGRAME

9.1. Need for an Income Restoration Program

105. The adverse impact on income is one of the most significant effects of resettlement for men

and women, the effects of which can be long lasting with inter-generational consequences.

Restoration of income is one of the greatest challenges to successful post-resettlement

rehabilitation. The success of resettlement planning in restoring living conditions is thus

inextricably bound to income restoration and effective income restoration in turn necessitates

a clear understanding of livelihoods, capacities and risks faced by those displaced.

107. According to the result of survey, most of APs in Tam Thanh and Tam Phu communes would

like to learn cooking and do small business.Currently, there is the Vietnam – Korea joint

project of Tam Thanh Mural Village was developed from June 2016 by the Korean

Foundation. The aim of project is “Art for Better Community” and now this attracts a

considerable of tourist to visit and generates a significant income to people around the project.

The extra income is from opening the small food shop to sell the local special/ traditional

foods and seafood.

108. The number of person entitled to the IRP is about 85 persons (of 57 severely AHs and

vulnerable AH). Tam Ky City has its own Employment Resource Center (VTC) to provide

vocational training. Trainees under working age range (women is 15- 55 years old and men

are 15 - 60 years old) are entitled to participation in the training without payment. Most of the

training sessions are short-term of 3 months.

109. The Tam Ky City Vocational Training Center (VTC) will be responsible for conducting

occupational training courses according to the need of participants.

9.5 Budget for implementation of IRP

110. The budget for IRP of 85 affected people will be estimated based on the Decision 3577/QĐ-

23. PMU has hired an independent External Monitor consultant (EMC) to monitor the

implementation of RP for sub-projects. The EMC’s contract should be amended to include

the external monitoring of the Dien Bien Phu road extension works. The main objectives of

external resettlement monitoring are:

(i) To verify the results of internal monitoring reports prepared by PMU and Center for Land Fund Development (CLFD) of Tam Ky City;

(ii) To examine whether provision of compensation and other agreed forms of assistance complies with the approved RPs;

(iii) To assess whether supplemental assistance measures have been provided in accordance with the IRPs, and the extent to which they have been effective in restoring incomes and living standards for severely affected households;

(iv) To assess the effectiveness, impact and sustainable level of resettlement management agencies and procedures;

56

(v) To propose necessary adjustments in the implementation of RPs and IRPs to improve implementation effectiveness.

24. Strategic lessons for future policy formulation and planning will also be drawn from the monitoring and evaluation of resettlement. This is possible through a Post-Resettlement Implementation Evaluation Study that will be carried out 6-12 months following completion of all resettlement activities.

25. The external monitor will cover specific issues such as, but not limited to, the following:

i. Public consultation and disclosure activities;

ii. Awareness of affected people on resettlement rights and entitlements, grievance redress, resettlement process, and project schedule

iii. Establishment of market rates for land and non-land assets;

iv. Documentation of impacts and payments (DMS, compensation documents,) as per agreed RP;

v. Coordination of resettlement activities with construction schedule;

vi. Land recovery and transfer procedures;

cut-off-date will not be entitled to compensation or any other

form of resettlement assistance.

What are the resettlement policies and principles of the

Project for affected households?

The basic resettlement principles of the Project are:

a) All APs are entitled to be compensated for their lost assets,

incomes and businesses at replacement cost, and provided

with rehabilitation measures sufficient to assist them to

improve or at least maintain their pre-project living

standards, incomes and productive capacity.

b) Lack of legal rights to the assets lost will not prevent APs

from entitlement to compensation.

c) Compensation for affected assets shall be provided at

market rates.

d) Preparation of resettlement plans and their

implementation is to be carried out with participation

and consultation of affected people.

e) Payment of compensation for affected assets and

relocation of AHs to new sites will be completed prior

to commencement of any construction activities.

f) Specific assistance will be provided for ethnic

minorities, female headed-households, families with

disabled, and other vulnerable families.

When the Detailed Measurement Survey (DMS)will take

place?

This activity will be carried out after the detailed design of

the 3 components (end of 2013) has been completed. The

DMS will identify all affected assets (land, structure, trees,

crops etc.) of each HH. The DMS team will be composed of

project representatives (PMU staff), the Resettlement

Committees, commune staff. The DMS will only be carried

out in the presence of the AHs. AHs will be informed prior

to the survey.

When the Project is expected to commence?

The detailed design will take place by the end of 2013. Land

acquisition and resettlement will take place by mid-2014

and the civil works for all components are expected to start

by mid-2015 and be completed in 2018.

When other consultation will take place?

Consultation with AHs will continue during the detailed

design phase and before the DMS. AHs will receive a

written invitation to join the public meetings.

Project such as compensation or general project-related

disputes, do I have the right to complain?

Any AH may file a complaint or grievance. The Project

includes a Grievance Redressal Process and AHs may

present their complaints to the concerned local

administrative officials and RCs, either verbally or in

writing.

The complaint can be filed first at the commune level and

can be elevated to the highest provincial level if the AHs

are not satisfied with the decisions made by the commune

or district. AHs will be exempted from all taxes and

administrative and legal fees associated with filing and

resolving the dispute.

- * People’s views:

1/ Mr. Nguyen The Van:

Local people completely agree with the policy of Government for the project. However, timing

for compensation is too fast, especially for housing clearance. Inside the land clearance of

project, there is an ancestral temple, so it is requested that Government arrange other land for

rebuilding the ancestral temples. Years ago, the ancients were planning to build ancestral

temples and left a lot of land lot for this purpose so Government is requested to arrange other

lands for constructing ancestral temples. Are revolutionary cadres being supported when

Government acquires the land?

69

2/ Mr. Duong Dao:

- Completely agree with policy for road construction. However, where is the resettlement

land for tombs to be moved?

- House clearance has to go in parallel with arranging resettlement land for the people.

- Prior to ancestral temples to be cleared, it is requested to have a consolidated agreement

from 4 organizations, and arrange other land to reconstruct the ancestral temples .

3/ Ms. Nguyen Thi Luyen

Her house is partly acquired, is it possible to re-build a house in the remaining land? Is resettlement

land being provided for her?

4/ Mr. Nguyen Thanh Choi

Shrimp pond is only partly acquired, he requests that the remaining one be taken because he can

not do business anymore.

- Answers from Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Trai – Director of Land Fund Development Center – Tam Ky

Branch.

- Principally, for agricultural land clearance, within the compensation scope of the project, if 70%

land is acquired, consideration can be made for compensating the whole lot (After households

propose request for compensating the whole land lot)

- For lands of ancestral temples: if the land of ancestral temples is registered with cadastral

documents, consideration will be made for providing another land for reconstruction.

- In resettlement policy, there is no regulation for supporting the revolutionary cadres when their

houses are cleared.

- For houses that are partly cleared, during implementation, consideration will be made for each

specific case.

- In the case of land with tombs, the tombs will be moved to tomb areas in Tam Phu Commune.

If a household has lineage tombs, Government will provide money to buy lands for those lineage

tombs (700,000 dong/ tomb)

- For resettlement policy, equality and transparency are ensured, in which consideration will be

made for families under preferential treatment policy, people with meritorious services to the

revolution, veterans, relatives of martyrs and the potential value of the land before clearance.

- Resettlement policies will provide the following support: support for moving, stability for

production and living, support for families under preferential treatment policy, reward for

obedience to resettlement conditions.

- If the HH needs to fix the remaining part of the house (kitchen, toilet etc), compensation for

house repair will be considered, but it is requested that people write a letter to the Commune PC

for resolving the issues as regulated.

- Resettlement land will not be provided to households in cases where his/her land is only partly

acquired.

70

Ideas of Mr. Nguyen Van Luong – Secretary of Party Committee – Chairman of Tan Phu Commune

People’s Council.
