Sustainable Land Information Management in Vietnam (Part I)
General
The current system of land use and land rights in Vietnam does not utilise the full potential of the available land. Therefore, Vietnam is in the process of revising the Land Law. One of the main envisaged changes is that bigger plots are allowed through land consolidation. Then farmers can develop from being barely subsistence to agricultural entrepreneurs. The Vietnamese government has requested the advice and support from Kadaster. This mission will further analyse the request for support as input for an actual project plan.
