Comrade Do Huu Huy, Alternate Member of the Party Central Committee, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, and PPC Chairman, has recently chaired a working session with the Provincial Civil and Industrial Construction Investment Project Management Board (Board B) to assess the capital disbursement and implementation as well as to overcome difficulties and obstacles in deploying public investment projects.

PPC Chairman, comrade Do Huu Huy addressing working session

Board B is currently assigned as the investor for 33 projects, including three projects in the investment preparation phase, 20 projects under implementation, and 10 projects that have entered the construction completion phase. The total planned capital allocation for 2026 exceeds 917 billion VND. As of April 22nd, the disbursement value only reached over 91 billion VND, equivalent to 9.93% of the plan. The reason is due to obstacles in compensation and site clearance; several other projects faced difficulties regarding scale, capital allocation plans, alongside related procedures.

At the session, representatives from departments, sectors, along with localities focused on discussing and clarifying existing problems, especially obstacles in land clearance, as well as proposed solutions to overcome them, committing to accelerating land handover for investors.

Concluding the meeting, PPC Chairman, comrade Do Huu Huy acknowledged the efforts of the Board B, and requested the unit to be more decisive in promoting the implementation combined with disbursement of public investment capital; and to make specific commitments on progress for each stage.

The PPC Chairman requested a focus on resolving projects with low disbursement rates; reviewing and adjusting disbursement plans towards feasibility, avoiding end-of-year pressure; proactively transferring internal capital among projects as well as being accountable to the PPC for implementation outcomes.

Regarding site clearance, the PPC Chairman requested relevant localities to focus intensely; the chairmen of commune together with ward People’s Committees must directly supervise and engage in dialogue with the people to definitively resolve outstanding cases, while also being responsible for the progress. The Department of Finance is tasked with advising on the capital reallocation among projects, resolutely cutting capital for projects that are unlikely to be implemented in order to prioritize projects with high feasibility.

The PPC Chairman requested that investors resolutely handle and replace contractors who do not ensure progress; as well as consider evaluating the responsibility of the officials in charge if they fail to fulfill their disbursement commitments.
