In addition, Quang Thinh village also has a land dispute with Tam Bong village, Tam Quang commune that has not been resolved yet; The specialized staff in charge of allowances does not meet the requirements of the job.

Regarding the above recommendations of voters, Mr. Kha Van Ot - Vice Chairman of Tuong Duong District People's Committee responded and explained specifically the contents under the authority of the district level. In which, Mr. Ot affirmed that the district is actively resolving the contents of payment and compensation related to Khe Bo Hydropower Plant. Regarding the land valuation at the departure and destination places in the resettlement of Khe Bo Hydropower Plant, Tuong Duong District has completed the valuation stage and has announced it publicly in the villages.

Tuong Duong District Party Secretary Pham Trong Hoang suggested that the Government should tighten regulations on forest protection. However, the demand for stilt houses is currently very high, so the exploitation of wood for house construction is still happening. The district is encouraging people to build houses with concrete pillars instead of stilt houses, but poor households still face difficulties in construction costs.
