(VOV) - Canada and Vietnam co-organized a
seminar on land management and land tax collection in the northern province of
Nam Dinh on October 31.
Experts working in the fields of investment,
planning, natural resources and construction from Canada’s Saguenay city and
Vietnam’s Nam Dinh, Pleiku, Thai Binh, Phu Ly and Tra Vinh cities attended the
event.
The seminar was held within the framework of a
project to strengthen local economic development through managing land
information that is being deployed by the Canadian International Development
Agency (CIDA), aiming to create favourable conditions for exchanging, sharing
experience and supporting cities to take part in the project.
Canadian delegates shared their experiences in
clarifying real estate transactions, preventing fraud and establishing
conditions for credit.
Vu Thi Linh, Vice General Secretary of the
Association of Cities of Vietnam (ACVN), said the lack of human resources
qualified in the use of information technology (IT) and the weakness in
developing software for public management mean that Vietnam finds it difficult to
manage land-related information.
Representatives of Vietnamese cities hoped
that the Canadian experts would share their experience in providing land
information for administrative agencies and publishing information on the
internet.
The CIDA project to strengthen the capacity of
local economic development through land information management has been
undertaken in Vietnam since 2004, with Nam Dinh chosen as the pilot city.
Since 2008, the project has been deployed in
five more cities in Vietnam, namely Nam Dinh, Pleiku, Thai Binh, Phu Ly and Tra
Vinh.
Canada has committed to support local economic
development capacity in three more cities: Thai Nguyen, Ha Tinh and Soc Trang
in the next phase before replicating the model across the country.
