Social housing projects fail to attract tenantsVietNamNet Bridge – When it comes to social housing or affordable housing for low-income earners, funding is usually a key factor in such projects. Few resettled families move to Hoang Cau Resettlement Housing Project in Ha Noi’s Dong Da District despite the project almost being completed. In Ha Noi, poor planning has been blamed for the high demand for low-cost housing and disused housing projects. Experts said the problem was a result of policymakers caring more about the number of home seekers when developing social housing projects rather than considering their needs. To attract people to such projects to avoid completed housing projects being disused, the benefits of all involved parties must be ensured, he said.
