(Photo cut from clip of Khanh Hoa Provincial Police) Designation of land allocation contrary to the direction of the Government According to a source, while holding the position of provincial president, Mr. Nguyen Chien Thang signed many documents related to the implementation of the Khanh Hoa Provincial Political School BT project, allocating the land to Thanh Yen Joint Stock Company (Thanh Yen Company). Yen) did not go through the auction, causing damage to the State hundreds of billions of dong. Specifically, Mr. Thang signed a document approving the proposal of Thanh Yen Company to implement the project of BT School of Politics of Khanh Hoa province in Phuoc Dong commune, outside Nha Trang city. In return, the province assigned the entire land area of ​​7,388 m2 at the old headquarters of the Provincial School of Politics to Thanh Yen Company to convert it into residential, production and business land to implement the project of a commercial – service complex – medical – office – hotel – apartment house Nha Trang Center 2. Mr. Thang allowed the application of the mechanism of “direct negotiation with investors” without organizing bidding to select investors according to regulations. In 2014, he signed a document appointing Thanh Yen Company to implement a BT project with a total investment of VND 149 billion, which will be paid back with a land area of ​​7,388 m2 and for this company to convert into residential, production and business land. implementation of Nha Trang Center 2 project. During the implementation of the Provincial Political School BT project and the Nha Trang Center 2 project, Mr. Thang also concluded that the company would enjoy many other incentives. According to the authorities, Khanh Hoa Provincial People’s Committee headed by Mr. Nguyen Chien Thang has intentionally violated the direction of the Government. The reason is that in May 2011, the province asked the Prime Minister to appoint a contractor for the BT School of Politics project and the Prime Minister at that time assigned the Ministry of Planning and Investment to comment. In June 2011, the Ministry of Planning and Investment issued an official dispatch stating that the BT form is appropriate, but “The list of projects of the People’s Committee of Khanh Hoa province is not one of the cases where investor designation is applicable. Request Khanh Hoa Provincial People’s Committee to organize bidding to select investors according to regulations” – the document stated. However, Mr. Thang still signed the document appointing the company to implement the project without organizing the bidding. According to the authorities, Mr. Thang concluded that the transfer of part of the land area of ​​the Provincial Political School into residential land is wrong with the planning, contrary to the land use plan, because according to the plan, after clearing the land No. 1 Tran Hung Dao, has no residential land but only commercial and service land. Extraordinary incentives for investors From the direction and conclusion of Mr. Thang, in February 2016, Mr. Dao Cong Thien, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee, signed a decision to withdraw all 7,388 m2 of land, assigning Thanh Yen Company to implement the Nha Trang Center project. 2 for sale. By July 2016, Mr. Thien signed a decision approving the price of the “golden land” area for only nearly 22.5 million VND/m2 of residential land, the rest of the land area was priced at 7.8 million VND/m2. While at that time, the price of land in front of Tran Hung Dao street on real estate exchanges was at 380-400 million VND/m2. When determining land prices, the Provincial People’s Committee converted nearly 3,000 square meters into non-agricultural production and business land. While according to regulations, this must be commercial and service land. After being assigned, the entire “non-agricultural” land area above was built by Thanh Yen Company for commercial and service businesses. This behavior of the province is said to be against the regulations, benefiting the investor, causing damage to the State hundreds of billions of dong. And yet, according to the plan, after clearing the Provincial Political School, the land area No. 1 Tran Hung Dao has no residential land, only commercial and service land. Currently, Khanh Hoa province is re-determining the price of the land of the old Provincial School of Politics to recover assets and remedy damage.
