Faced with the growing housing demand from workers, laborers, and low-income earners, authorities in the southern city of Dong Nai have urged developers to accelerate social housing projects, aiming to bring over 8,000 units into use by 2026.
Permanent Vice Chairman of the Dong Nai People’s Committee Nguyen Kim Long chaired a recent meeting with relevant departments, sectors, local authorities, and project developers, focusing on reviewing progress, resolving existing bottlenecks, and expediting key tasks for 2026.
According to the local Department of Construction, the central Government has tasked the city with completing a minimum of 65,000 social housing units during the 2025–2030 period. For 2026 alone, the locality is required to deliver over 8,000 apartments. This is considered a top priority in the province’s social security strategy to meet the rising demand for accommodation among workers and low-income groups.
At the meeting, developers reaffirmed their commitment to partnering with the province to achieve these housing development goals. Businesses pledged to mobilize maximum financial resources, personnel, equipment, and materials. They also vowed to strengthen coordination with functional agencies to tackle obstacles and speed up project implementation.
According to the developers, completing these social housing projects on schedule will not only help fulfill the targets set by the Government but also directly address the urgent housing needs of workers and low-income residents within the province.
"In cases of implementation delays, failure to honor commitments, or insufficient execution capacity, the City People’s Committee will consider handling measures in accordance with regulations," said Mr. Long.
"We will resolutely revoke investment approvals and select alternative investors for projects with prolonged delays that hinder the city’s social housing development goals."
