On November 3, the Dong Nai Provincial Department of Finance reported to the Provincial People’s Committee on the public investment disbursement progress for 2025.
The Prime Minister allocated over VND 31,926 billion for Dong Nai’s 2025 public investment plan. As of October 28, the disbursed amount was VND 13,867 billion, achieving a 43.43% completion rate.
Dong Nai aims to disburse 100% of public investment capital by December 31, 2025.
Excluding the VND 9,236 billion capital plan (including VND 8,036 billion for the Gia Nghia – Chon Thanh section of the North-South Expressway, which the National Assembly extended until 2026, and an additional VND 1,200 billion newly allocated), the Prime Minister’s assigned capital plan is VND 22,690 billion.
Thus, the disbursement rate as of October 28 was 61.11% (VND 13,867 billion out of VND 22,690 billion), surpassing the national average.
Specifically, the Bien Hoa Land Fund Development Center achieved an 89% disbursement rate, the Department of Construction 51%, the Department of Industry and Trade 1.6%, the Cam My Land Fund Development Center 2%, and the Dong Nai Land Fund Development Center 6%.
According to the Department of Finance, the remaining capital to be disbursed in the final months is substantial, requiring strong commitment and focus from departments, investors, localities, and related units.
Delays in disbursement stem from bidding complaints in some projects, which halted progress until resolved. Examples include the HCMC – Thu Dau Mot – Chon Thanh Expressway and the Tam Phuoc Ward resettlement area in Bien Hoa. Heavy rainfall in September and October also impacted construction timelines.
Compensation and land clearance issues persist, with some residents disputing compensation rates, leading to complaints and lawsuits. Changes in local government structure and personnel have further complicated these efforts.
To accelerate public investment disbursement in the last two months of 2025, the Departments of Construction, Agriculture and Environment, Finance, Industry and Trade, and Land Fund Development Centers will collaborate with local authorities to address investor challenges, particularly those related to compensation and land clearance.
For projects facing resident opposition, local authorities will continue community engagement efforts.
Previously, the Dong Nai People’s Committee issued a directive requiring departments, agencies, local authorities, and 40 investors to strictly implement the Prime Minister’s telegram, aiming to achieve 100% of the 2025 public investment plan by December 31, 2025.
