Hanoi to recover narrow and tiny houses for public useHanoi authorities have ordered a review and possible seizure of super tiny and narrow houses for public use such as gardens. Houses that are less than 15 square metres must merge with other buildings nearby within 30 days or be converted into public land. Communal and district authorities must take full responsibility if more tiny and narrow houses appear in their areas. Many NA deputies in Hanoi have asked the authorities to deal with the tiny houses and the proposal to recover super tiny houses was put on the table for a long time but it wasn't implemented effectively. As more transport projects are carried out and roads are expanded, the number of super tiny houses has increased.
