Proposal to increase compensation by 1.5 times when land is recovered in Hanoi
The city proposes a compensation level (in cash) for land equal to 1.5 times the regulated level when land is recovered.
Hanoi City People's Committee has just submitted a report proposing the promulgation of a Resolution of the City People's Council stipulating the level of compensation and support when the State recovers land in the city.

However, these regulations also create inconsistency and unfairness to land users when the State recovers land to implement projects that are not large projects or important projects of the Capital.
