  • Authorities in Da Nang, Vietnam, have issued three fines totaling 95 million Vietnamese dong against a property owner for land and construction violations.
  • The owner was ordered to restore the land and demolish illegal structures, but has failed to comply months after the decisions were issued.
  • Local residents are expressing frustration over the continued existence of the large, solid commercial and service facility despite repeated penalties.

A commercial and service facility built without permits continues to stand in Da Nang, Vietnam, months after local authorities issued fines and demolition orders. Residents of Long Binh village in Nuรญ Thร nh commune are frustrated by the ongoing presence of the large, solid structure.

Trแบงn Vฤƒn Sฦกn, 47, received three administrative violation decisions from the UBND of Nรบi Thร nh commune, totaling 95 million Vietnamese dong. The violations include converting 1,123.8 square meters of agricultural land for commercial use and encroaching on 554.8 square meters of state-managed land for a wall.

In addition to the fines, Sฦกn was ordered to restore the land to its original state and forfeit illegal profits. He was also instructed to demolish the illegal construction within 15 days of a December 19, 2025, decision. However, the structure remains, and the illegal construction has not been dismantled.

Authorities have stated they will proceed with forced demolition if Sฦกn does not voluntarily comply with the orders. The situation highlights a persistent issue of illegal construction and enforcement challenges in the region.
