Social housing in Dong Nai is still limited.
In Dong Nai province, the number of workers from other provinces currently accounts for about 60%. In areas with a large number of workers in Dong Nai province such as Bien Hoa city, Trang Bom district, Nhon Trach district, Vinh Cuu district... many workers have to live in boarding houses that lack security and environmental conditions...
According to statistics, Dong Nai province has about 20,000 boarding houses with more than 150,000 rooms, providing accommodation for 450,000 workers. In the 2021-2025 period, Dong Nai province set a target of building 10,000 houses, but so far only 1,660 houses have been completed. According to the People's Committee of Dong Nai province, the reason is that the work of preparing investment policy documents of some localities has not met the target; the work of selecting investors is slow (9 projects have been approved for investment policy but only 2 projects have selected investors). In addition, many investors prioritize investment in commercial housing, slow investment in technical infrastructure of 20% of land fund to invest in social housing or hand over to the State. To achieve the resolution's target, from now until 2025, Dong Nai will have to start construction and build at least 7,242 more social housing units. Dong Nai is building 1,000 more social housing units in Long Binh Tan ward, Bien Hoa city (construction started in 2024 and will continue in 2025).
