A student proposed to the Prime Minister a solution for unregistered vehicles.
Dear Mr. Nguyen Tan Dung:
I am an international student with a scholarship for the 500 master's and doctoral programs of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee, currently studying at UQ -
Over the past few days, I have learned new information about Decree 71, which regulates the fines for vehicles that are not registered to the owner. There are many, many people who are upset about this Decree. Maybe it is because people do not understand the true intentions of the lawmakers on this issue. However, I have learned that the real “desire” of the Ministry of Transport is to create penalties to deter illegal vehicle trading, not transferring ownership, and tax evasion… I understand that the lawmakers want to tighten the law, so that people are more aware of buying and selling vehicles, and the Ministry of Transport can more easily manage vehicle theft… That is not too much.

However, if we “immediately” apply this law to life, there are many things that are not right:
The first,Current car owners who have owned cars that are not in their name, “really want” but cannot find the real previous owner to transfer ownership, can be fined at any time. These people are usually poor people, because they do not have much money, so they buy used cars, hoping to save some of the cost of transferring ownership, accepting the risk so they do not transfer the ownership.
Monday, if the cars that cannot be transferred have to be “shelved”, as people are upset about, it is a huge waste of national assets. This makes it even more difficult for the poor…
From the above analysis, I propose the following solution:
The first, this law should not be applied immediately. People should be given 6 months to complete the procedures for changing the name and ownership. For those who can find the old owner of the car, the transfer of ownership will be applied as usual. For those who cannot find the old owner of the car, conditions will also be created for them to change the ownership of the car in their name, but will be fined an administrative fine (depending on the remaining value of the car from 100,000 VND to 1,000,000 VND).
Traffic violators’ vehicles are increasingly being confiscated and abandoned in temporary storage areas. Thousands of vehicles are at risk of becoming scrap.
From 6 months onwards (the problem of old cars that cannot be transferred due to not being able to find the owner has been resolved satisfactorily), all cars when being bought and sold must be transferred and notarized. State agencies will no longer handle any cases of buying and selling cars without transferring the name and not being able to find the owner to transfer the name. At that time, the law of a fine of 1 million VND will be applied if the car is not registered to the owner. Only then will people be more aware when buying and selling cars.
Monday,It is necessary to propagate to the people the real desire in applying this decree, so that people are less confused. This law is really only to protect people from criminals who steal cars…
Tuesday,It is necessary to simplify the procedures for transferring ownership when buying and selling used cars, and to propagate and guide people to "know how" to do it, and see that transferring ownership is very easy, if the car is really bought and sold legally (not stolen). For the poor, when buying a used car, the remaining value of the car is low (under 5 million, for example), the transfer of ownership will be carried out "free of charge" for the people, to reduce costs for the poor. Determining the remaining value of the car is not based on the price stated in the sales contract, but on the depreciation of fixed assets.
Only then will people easily accept the law of vehicle ownership transfer when buying and selling vehicles.
Basically, this law is necessary for management, but if we want to tighten it hastily as we are doing now, people will be very dissatisfied, and the "shelved" cars will waste national assets. On the contrary, if we abolish this law because people are too dissatisfied, it will be even more inappropriate, creating conditions for criminals to thrive.
I am writing this letter to you in the context of seeing that our people in Vietnam are too upset, and some reactionary elements here are distorting too much about our law makers. Maybe my solutions are not really practical. But these are my concerns and wishes to build a Vietnam
Hope that Vietnam
Wish you good health!
