2. The CPA has promoted Social Housing

To satisfy public housing demand, the MOI has been following the housing act which revised in January
11, 2017 and the "Implementation Program for Social Housing project" was approved in March 6, 2017 to
construct 200,000 social housing units that are only for rent and not for sale within 8 years, including 120,000

new housing units and sublease 80,000 units from private landlords and manage the properties on their
behalf. In the first stage, from 2017 to 2020, the goal of social housing units is to construct 40,000 units and
sublease 40,000 units from private landlords and manage the properties on their behalf. Up to January
17, 2018, 20,876 units of the social housing are achieved, while the local governments and the CPA are
building 11,103 social housing units of 23 projects, built 2,514 social housing units of 8 projects, and the local

governments had constructed 7,259 social housing units before 2016. Therefore, the local governments
implement projects that sublease housing units from private landlords and manage the properties on their
behalf in collaboration with Central Government for increasing supply of social housing. Since 2017, the
CPA has appropriated full fund for the special municipality, which all have been running the project. In the

process of social housing construction, the governments continue providing assistance for people who have
living problems by project of sublease housing units from private landlords and manage the properties on
their behalf or Housing Relevant Funds Program.
