(Baonghean.vn) - Several large hydropower projects in Tuong Duong district continue to pay compensation and support local people affected by natural disasters.

Tuong Duong is a locality with many hydropower projects and infrastructure construction projects. Ensuring a stable life for people after the projects are implemented, especially after resettlement, is extremely important.

In reality, some resettlement projects for people in Tuong Duong district were located in locations with steep slopes, high risk of landslides, and unsafe conditions, so after a short time, local people moved to other places, built temporary houses on the banks of rivers and streams, leaving behind dilapidated resettlement houses.

In addition, the Management Board of the 220kV Nam Mo (Laos) - Tuong Duong transmission line construction project in Vietnam has also paid compensation and support for crops, houses, and land with a total amount of more than 212 million VND to the people of Lo village (Xa Luong commune); Khe Kien village (Luu Kien commune); Phong village (Thach Giam town); Bai Xa village (Tam Quang commune). At the same time, the compensation and support documents for assets on land within the transmission line safety corridor (phase 3) were completed and submitted to the investor to arrange funds to pay for 5 households and the amount of more than 456 million VND.

It can be seen that, although the support for people affected by natural disasters, as well as the payment of housing repair support costs for large projects in the area, has not been carried out in a timely manner.

However, the supported funds will partly help people stabilize their lives and ensure "settling down" when the projects are deployed and put into operation./.
