Abstract
NGUYEN THANH, Luan. Against corruption and promoting socio-economic development in Vietnam today through amending the law on state acquisition of land for socio-economic development for the national or public benefit. Prolegómenos [online]. 2022, vol.25, n.50, pp.81-93. Epub Mar 24, 2023. ISSN 0121-182X. https://doi.org/10.18359/prole.5937.
this article analyzes and evaluates Vietnam’s current legal provisions on State land acquisition for socio-economic development in the national or public interest. Since implementation, many legal loopholes have been revealed, such as large-scale land acquisition, “cheap” compensation for acquired property, and coercive land acquisitions. These have created additional opportunities for corrupt officials and enterprises with a close and mutually profitable relationship, putting the people whose land is to be acquired into difficulties and poverty. Amending the law to close these loopholes is necessary to combat corruption, ensure the interests of people whose land is to be acquired, and promote Vietnam’s socio-economic development.
