Ho Chi Minh City - Thu Dau Mot - Chon Thanh Expressway: Ho Chi Minh City leader issues 'final notice'

Ho Chi Minh City Vice Chairman Hoang Nguyen Dinh has issued a stern ultimatum to relevant departments and local authorities, demanding they resolve obstacles and accelerate the progress of the Ho Chi Minh City - Thu Dau Mot - Chon Thanh expressway project. The directive came during a meeting on July 3, where Dinh addressed issues concerning land acquisition, resettlement, and construction.

During the meeting, leaders from Phuoc Hoa commune reported that the 5.81km stretch of the expressway passing through their area affects 348 cases across more than 50 hectares. While compensation decisions have been made for 301 individuals and organizations, representing 83% of the approved funds, dozens of households who agreed to vacate their land have yet to receive their compensation. Commune leaders appealed to the city's People's Committee for urgent financial allocation to disburse payments.

Vice Chairman Dinh directly questioned the leaders of the Project Management Board for Construction Investment of Transport Works and the Ho Chi Minh City Land Development Center, demanding an explanation for the delays. He pointed out that the Prime Minister had criticized the slow disbursement of public investment funds, while local authorities were acting decisively and residents were left waiting. Dinh demanded that the issues raised by local authorities be resolved within 10 days.

In contrast, An Long commune reported significant progress, having cleared land and handed it over for construction, with 94% of compensation disbursed. Only two households face issues due to lost land ownership certificates, and one organization has not yet agreed to the compensation amount. Leaders noted that most individuals and organizations cooperated, with some even signing agreements to hand over land before receiving payment.

Dinh praised An Long commune's efforts and suggested their leadership be recognized and their experience shared with other communes. He concluded the meeting by emphasizing the need for close coordination and problem-solving among all involved parties to ensure the project's timely completion.
