Dien Bien will evaluate and purify cadres from key projects
According to the People's Committee of Dien Bien province, the whole province is currently implementing 10 key projects (5 budget capital projects, 5 non-budget capital projects). Although all levels and sectors have made many efforts, the progress of the projects is slower than the plan.
The biggest "bottleneck" is identified as compensation and site clearance (GPMB). In reality, the workload in these projects is very large, the process is complicated, while the local specialized staff is still lacking and weak.
The Nam Rom River Basin Multi-disaster Management Project has a total investment of more than VND 981 billion, although 7/7 packages have been implemented, the construction volume has only reached 44.55%. According to the plan, this project must be completed before December 31, 2025.
The project's site clearance work is still in disarray when only 279 out of 514 households have handed over clean land (reaching 64.52%). See more...
