Ms. Tinh requested the local authorities to intervene to protect her rights. On November 8, 2024, representatives of the local authorities and the construction unit went to Ms. Tinh's house to inspect the scene to make a record to resolve the issues that Ms. Tinh requested.

In addition, a commitment must be made that if Ms. Tinh's house is damaged during construction and 3 months after the project is completed, compensation must be paid according to regulations.
