Of which, the total area of the first floor assigned for management and lease is more than 16,000 m2.According to the conclusion of the Hanoi Inspectorate, this enterprise arbitrarily signed contracts for organizations and individuals to lease more than 10,000m2 of the first floor without reporting to the City People's Committee on the management and use plan, and arbitrarily converted the function to a service business area for lease.Some units use the service business area for the wrong purpose, arbitrarily build, and owe rent; are likely to cause loss of state budget revenue with an estimated amount of over 25 billion VND, showing signs of violating a number of articles of criminal law.Hanoi Housing Management and Development Company Limited also transformed its designed function into a parking lot, electrical and water technical room, main hall for organizations and individuals to rent 56 service business locations. When discovered, many business owners had to hand over the premises.Currently, the workers' housing area has many abandoned kiosks, surrounded by overgrown, shabby weeds.Garbage surrounded the workers' housing areas.Most of the first floor of the buildings is being rented out as restaurants and car repair shops.In response to a series of violations, in August 2024, the Hanoi City Inspectorate transferred the above case file to the Investigation Security Agency, City Police for handling according to regulations.The Hanoi City Inspectorate also recommended that the City People's Committee assign the Department of Construction, the Department of Finance, the People's Committee of Dong Anh District and Hanoi Housing Management and Development Company Limited to take a number of administrative measures; review responsibilities, and take disciplinary action against related groups and individuals.
Previously, in early October 2023, Lao Dong Newspaper published a series of articles reflecting on the phenomenon of blatant price drop in worker housing rental in Kim Chung worker housing area.
In particular, it clearly states the phenomenon of officers of the Social Housing Management and Development Enterprise, under Hanoi Housing Management and Development Company Limited, requiring workers to pay a "man-in-the-hand" amount of 7 to more than 10 million VND to have their worker housing rental documents in Kim Chung approved.
In addition to the phenomenon of "hand-to-hand" prices for workers who have just approved their rental documents, there are a series of major problems in this workers' housing area such as: Enterprises are given the opportunity to circumvent the law, take over workers' houses for profit, the first floor of the buildings for rent for the wrong purpose for many years, many households have complained that they have to spend hundreds of millions of VND to get a rental rate...
Regarding the above series of violations, on October 6, 2023, informing Lao Dong newspaper, Hanoi Housing Management and Development Company Limited said that it had temporarily suspended 2 officials of the Social Housing Development and Management Enterprise from receiving "hand-to-hand" money for renting workers' housing.
