Lam Dong family finally receive red book after 10 years
Duc Trong District People's
Committee in Lam Dong Province has finally granted the red book to the family
of Dam Thi Lich to certify their rights to 563.9 square metres of land in
Lien Nghia Town.
Following instructions from PM Nguyen Xuan Phuc and Minister of
Natural Resources and Environment Tran Hong Ha, Lich didn't have to pay any
money to get the certificate.
"I’m so happy to have it now," the
75-year-old woman said, holding her land use right certificate when talking
with DTiNews reporters. "I have to thank the prime minister and the
minister of Natural Resources and Environment for helping me to get it after more
than a decade. I also want to express my sincere thanks to DTiNews Newspaper
and lawyer Ho Nguyen Le for supporting me over the past year."
Lich holding her land use right
certificate
Lich has been involved in a long dispute with local authorities of
Duc Trong District over the land use right certificate.
Before 1975, Lich's family
had cleared nearly 4,000 square metres of scrub land. They had been
cultivating the land for 11 years before giving the usage of it to the
agricultural co-operative in 1986, of which they were a member. The local
authorities gave them a lot of nearly 600 square metres of residential land.
In 1993, Lich asked Duc Trong
District People's Committee for compensation for their 4,000 m2 of farm land
which had been used for other purposes but received no response.
When Lich prepared to asked
for the land use right certificate for her residential land lot, the
committee decided to divide it into two lots, 253.9 square metres of
residential land and 310-m2 of farm land. However, they asked Lich to pay a
land use fee of VND5.7 billion (USD253,900) for the residential land area.
Lich disagreed with the
decision by Duc Trong People's Committee and had sent various complaints to
agencies including Lam Dong Province's People Committee, Lam Dong Province's
Party Committee, and the province's NA deputies calling for help. But she
again received no response.
Lich then sought help from
local media. DTiNews followed her story and published more than 50
investigations which showed various wrongdoings.
And after the case was
brought to the media and received lots of attention from the public, Minister
of Natural Resources and Environment, Tran Hong Ha, on May 13 sent a
delegation led by the head of the General Department of Land Management to
Lam Dong to investigate the case.
The investigation team have found
out various wrongdoings by local authorities in Duc Trong District and the
minister then asked them to urgently grant the certificate to Lich's family
without asking for any fee.
Minister Ha also vowed to
strictly punish all the individuals involved in the case after further
investigations are carried out.
