“The spirit of such a patriotic nation is not worried about losing the country. Listening and absorbing opinions is necessary to adjust the law to create conditions for free business, sustainable development, ensuring the country's sovereignty, independence, freedom in the long term, and fundamental national interests,” the Prime Minister emphasized.
Therefore, according to the Prime Minister, we will listen to and adjust the land lease term in a reasonable manner, in accordance with the legitimate wishes of the people.
The head of the Government also emphasized that this is land leased and leased according to procedures, not permanently transferred, concessioned, or transferred, and unfortunately many people misunderstand this.
In addition, the investor structure must be appropriate for each country with a necessary ratio, not one country dominating. Economic security and national security must be linked together in the construction of special economic zones.
“Everyone should not worry about one country or one country having exclusive investment in this issue. The law is the framework to create the necessary legal environment, and the regulation on 99-year land lease is a special case with large capital investment in infrastructure, but listening to the opinions of the people, the elders, and intellectuals, the National Assembly and the Prime Minister will absorb them to adjust them to suit the situation, along with other solutions to ensure the nation's longevity, independence, and sustainable development, worthy of the heroic Vietnamese national tradition” – Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc emphasized./.
