Abstract

In Vietnam, the involuntary conversion of land for public purposes is practically inevitable, due to the growing demand for infrastructure development. Land-related complaints have partly stemmed from the country’s inadequate system of policies and laws on land and from their poor application. This chapter focuses on resolving conflict and balancing public and private interests in land that is subject to development plans or proposals. It examines the extent to which the law provides an effective medium to resolve existing issues, with an aim to limit compulsory land acquisition purposes; identify clear procedures for compulsory land acquisition; and guarantee fair compensation for land holders. Private property is seen as a subject of mutual interest and tension between the state and individual citizens.
