I. INTRODUCTION

1. The Ben Luc-Long Thanh Expressway Project (BLLT) is one of the 16 expressways under Eastern North-South Expressway as per “Development planning of Vietnam expressway network toward 2020 and the vision after 2020” and “Detailed planning of Eastern North-South Expressway”, approved by the Prime Minister through Decision No. 1734/QD-TTg, dated 01 December 2008 and Decision No. 140/QD-TTg, dated 21 January 2010.

2. The Ben Luc - Long Thanh Expressway Project has an overall length of 58km. It traverses through 16 Communes in 7 Districts of 3 Provinces. This proposed expressway starts from My Yen Commune and part of an access-road in Tan Buu Commune, Ben Luc District, Long An Province; and traverses through Binh Chanh Commune, Tan Quy Tay Commune, Hung Long Commune, Da Phuoc Commune in Binh Chanh District; Nhon Duc Commune, Long Thoi Commune in Nha Be District, and Binh Khanh Commune in Can Gio District, in Ho Chi Minh City; then goes through Phươc Khanh commune, Vinh Thanh Commune, Phuoc An Commune in Nhon Trach District, Long Phuoc Commune, and ends at Phuoc Thai Commune in Long Thanh District of Dong Nai Province. The proposed right of way (PROW) and land acquisition area along the route varies from 56m - 73m wide.

3. The project expressway is divided into three section; western section (21.14 km), middle section (10.71 km), and eastern section (25.25 km). For the expressway construction, ADB (Asian Development Bank) finances the western and eastern sections, and Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) finances the middle section. The project was estimated to cost $1.608 billion at appraisal, inclusive of local taxes, contingencies, and financing charges during development. Tranche 2 in the amount of $286 million will cover construction of the eastern section of the expressway.

II. PROJECT DESCIPTION

III. MONITORING AND REPORTING

5. This report is concerned with the monitoring and reporting of Resettlement Plan (RP) implementation. The main objective of monitoring of resettlement work is to provide an insight and guidelines to the management for assessing the progress of resettlement. Its objective is to identify probable difficulties and problem area, like a RADAR system providing an early warning system, which need correction.

6. In order to ensure effective implementation of the Resettlement Plan (RP) and achievement of the set targets, internal monitoring of Resettlement & Rehabilitation (R&R) components of the project has been carried out by the EA with the help of Resettlement Specialist of project supervision consultant (PSC), to enable timely adjustment of implementation set up and procedures.

7. Now, South Expressway Project Management Unit (SEPMU) of Ben Luc Long Thanh (BLLT) Expressway Project is the representative of the executing agency (VEC) and is responsible for internal monitoring. As per agreed RPs, SEPMU has to submit quarterly monitoring report to ADB and VEC. This quarterly monitoring report No.3 (QRNo-3) of 2017 presents the status of land acquisition and handing over of land for the project & income restoration program (IRP) implementation up till September, 2017.

IV. OBJECTIVES OF INTERNAL MONITORING REPORT (IMR)

8. The objectives of the monitoring program are:

1) Monitoring of gender disaggregated resettlement progress of the affected HHs under RP implementation, in particular land acquisition and handing over land to project and implementation of IRP

2) Assessment of monitoring the standard of living of Affected Households (AHHs) are restored or improved;

3) monitoring whether the overall project and resettlement objectives are being met; 4) assess, if rehabilitation measures and compensation are sufficient; 5) Identify problems and risks; and identify measures to mitigate problems. 6) Identify and explain issues in Memorandum of Understanding ( MOU) of each ADB

mission to meet Safeguards Policy Statement (SPS), 2009 9. The range of activities and issues that need to be recorded and verified, include:

1) Compensation, allowance payments and delivery of assistance measures to affected households (AHHs);

2) Re-establishment of AHHs settlements and business enterprises; 3) Reaction of AHHs, in particular, to resettlement and compensation packages; and 4) Implementation of IRP to restore income of HHs after land acquisition 5) Review and support (if necessary) to resolve disputes and grievances of AHHs 6) Assistance provided to AHHs in relocation to new resettlement sites.

10. SEPMU has invited bidding for the selection of external monitor to make compliance of ADB directives; however, no decision has been taken up till 3rd Q 2017. There is no external monitor, who could monitor and evaluate the RP updating and implementation.

5.2 Area of Impacted Land as per Updated Decision

13. Land Acquisition is the major issues that determine the progress of work. Since, the project alignment has been designed in a new land, hence, major part of land consists of agriculture land (nearly 85%), while the remaining are residential land and swampy river area. The table below gives clear picture of updated status of land acquisition:

14. The above table shows that there is no change in recovered land area from previous reporting period.

15. The updating in recovered land area at this juncture is due to updating of land acquisition

at micro level for each household, duly verified by the joint team of EPMU, Contractors and

Local authorities of each District. The land area reflected in the DMS (Detailed Measurement Survey) at design stage was a generic assessment, while the updating of impact on land at this stage of implementation is being done as per actual measurement, considering the design consideration.

16. In the previous reporting period, a reduction in land acquisition area in different

packages was observed, which was attributed to factors like, recording of land area not based

on micro level assessment but based on general decision of DCC (district compensation

committee); account of land concerning canal, ditch, and road and inclusion of small scrublands

etc., which has been well explained in quartrerly-1 report (March 2017)

17. It is also pertinent to mention here that it was March 2017, when EPMU, Contractors and

Local authorities of each District have decided to carry out updating of land acquisition area for

each household at micro level. Accordingly, a detail of land acquisition for each household at

micro level was started measured and updated. Now onwards, the data received from joint

verification/ measurement of the stated team will be used for calculation of land acquisition

area and will be updated each month.

18. A minor change in total land acquisitioin area is still expected in packages (A5, A6 & A7) of section-III, where land acquisition process is in the way.

5.3 Budgeted amount for RP implementation

19. The table below shows the resettlement budget as per updated decision up till Sept 2017 and its comparison with the URP and the previous quarter (please see remarks column in the table):

38. As described in the last reporting period that People’s committee (PC), Ben Luc District and Binh Chanh District and CoLFD and Committee of Compensation of District have organized a dialogue with HHs to resolve the pending issues of handing over of land for the Project (see minute in Annex 4). The positive outcome of this dialogue is visible on ground, when the HHs have started handing over the land for civil construction

39. There is no change up till Sept 2017 when it was reported in Q-2 report that about 8 HHs near National Highways -1, are complaining for low compensation. The CoLFD and Committee of Compensation of District are trying to convince the specified HHs through dialogue to hand over the land, however, if they fail to get the handing over of the land, the authority may issue an enforcement decision.

40. It is pertinent to mention here that Article 39 of Law of Land on ‘Land recovery for use for objectives of national defence and security, national interest or public interest’ says that ‘after a decision on land recovery and a plan for compensation, site clearance and resettlement have been approved by the competent State body, publicly announced and become effective, the person, having land to be recovered, must comply with the decision on land recovery. Where a person, having land to be recovered, fails to comply with the decision on land recovery, the people's committee at district level, which is authorized to make the decision on land recovery, shall have the right to issue an enforcement decision.’

41. Land recovery, compensation and ground clearance procedures were first touched upon in Decree No. 197 and then detailed in Decree No. 84 with 12 steps. However, some of these procedures proved impractical and their implementation time limits were not clearly set, causing rampant project construction delay and affecting investor interests.In face of such situation, Decree No. 69 was issued, re-arranging the land recovery, compensation and ground clearance procedures defined in Decree No. 84 in only four steps, which is well illustarted in the following Table:

Table 13. Land recovery, compensation and ground clearance procedures

Steps Measures Time line for different steps

Step-1 Location recommendation and land recovery notification

The time limit for issuance of written recommendations on investment locations, land recovery notices and setting up of compensation, support and resettlement councils is 30 days after the receipt of valid investment dossiers

Step-2 Formulation of compensation, support and resettlement plans

The time for posting and public comment is at least 20 days. Past this time, the compensation, support and resettlement body will summarize the comments, indicating the numbers of pros, cons and other comments. If a large number of people disagree with the compensation, support and resettlement plan, the compensation body must clearly explain or consider and

Page | 21

adjust it, then finalize and send it together with summarized comments to the natural resource and environment agency for appraisal.

Step-3 Decision on land recovery

The time limit for handover of land to compensation bodies is 20 days after they receive adequate compensation money

Step-4 Coercive land recovery Coercive land recovery is a strong, albeit undesirable,

administrative measure to be taken by the State in necessary cases. In order to prevent such coercion from abuse and protect people’s interests, coercive land recovery must be only carried out in certain cases

42. The decision on Coercive land recovery by cometent authority can be imposed in following cases:

1. If, the land recovery has been strictly carried out according to the above-mentioned three steps; or,

2. Past 30 days after the deadline for land handover, the land users concerned fail to hand over to-be-recovered land; or,

3. The land users decline to hand over to-be-recovered land though they have been persuaded by local administrations and compensation bodies; or,

4. A coercion decision has been issued according to law by a competent state body; or,

5. The coercion decision has been received by the land users concerned or publicly displayed at the office of the commune- level People’s Committee of the place with the land to be

recovered.

43. Coercion decisions will be enforced by coercion forces under the direction of district-level People’s Committees 15 days after the decisions are received by the land users concerned or publicly displayed at the offices of the commune-level People’s Committees and the land areas are not handed over. Any person, subject to a land recovery enforcement decision, must comply with it, howevr; he has the right to make a complaint.

44. The District People's Committee has directed the Compensation Site Clearance Board of Binh Chanh District to speed up the completion of the legal documents so that the site clearance can be completed.

45. Can Gio District have completed handing over of land to Project of 100%.

46. The resolved cases of handing over and present obstruction, updated up till September 2017, is shown in the figures below (Fig.-1- Fig. 14)

IX. RE-ESTABLISHMENT OF AHHs SETTLEMENTS AND BUSINESS ENTERPRISES;

47. Basic principles in guidelines under SPS-2009 of ADB is to avoid involuntary resettlement wherever possible and or to minimize involuntary resettlement by exploring project and design alternatives; to enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons in real terms relative to pre-project levels; and to improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups. The involuntary resettlement safeguards covers physical displacement (relocation, loss of residential land, or loss of shelter) and economic displacement (loss of land, assets, access to assets, income sources, or means of livelihoods) as a result of involuntary acquisition of land and properties.

48. Harmonized with the basic principles of ADB Policy on compensation, assistance and resettlement, Vietnam Government, in agreement with ADB, has adopted a specific Resettlement Framework for the BLLT Expressway project, which could minimize involuntary resettlement, enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons in real terms relative to pre-project levels.

Page | 25

49. The several RPs, prepared for this project, establishes the provisions for payment of resettlement assistance to AHs, CBEs and income restoration assistance to the poor and vulnerable households and provides the budget and cost estimate for implementation.

50. The agencies, involved in RP implementation, maintained continuous efforts to achieve the desired result on timely execution of resettlement and IRP activities. In the process, the agency/ authority have initiated following activities to make sure effective implementation of resettlement and restoration of livelihood:

• Consulting project affected people viable solutions for resettlement and livelihood restoration;

• Providing affected people options of resettlement and livelihood restoration; • Compensating entire replacement cost for damages and loss; • Selecting sites for resettlement, which could provide minimum benefits and services similar

to their existing place ;

• Providing finance for assistance, training and income support to help them go well during the transitional period;

• Recognizing vulnerable groups and providing special support for these groups; and • Establishing a structure on institution and organization to assist this process to finally

succeed. 51. In order to conduct objective implementation of the RP and minimize the adverse social impacts a periodic evaluation will be carried out. This evaluation will involve identifying the gaps between the implementation of the RP and the mitigation measures proposed in the RP. Any gaps thus identified will be discussed in consultation with the EPMU officials and the local administration as necessary and corrective actions executed. These corrective actions will be examined and then implemented in a timely manner. Other than that the evaluation criteria will examine resettlement status and the quality of life with respect to the income levels of the persons or families losing livelihood and business structures, if any. There will be a direct comparison of the income level pre-project period and post project implementation stage. If there have been any families that are impoverished due to the project development, measures will be suggested to address the same.

52. To evaluate the status on re-establishment of AHHs settlements and business enterprises, an evaluation of resettlement/relocation and implementation of IRP activities will be required, which has not initiated as up till now.

53. Based on the assessment during monitoring on re-establishment of AHHs settlement and business enterprises, the following results have been witnessed:

• There are 502 eligible HHs in Tranche-1 (ADB section I), who needs relocation. Out of which 499 HHs opted for self-relocation, while only 3 HHs opted for relocating at resettlement site.

• The resettlement site was identified by the authority which is now almost completed (near 90 %) and ready for relocation.

• Out of 873 HHs, 269 HHs received the IRP inputs (96 HHs—Ben Luc District, 76- Can Giuoc District, and 92 Can Gio district).

• The evaluation of IRP implementation has been completed in Can Gio district only.

11.2 Status of Resettlement Site development

58. The identified and specified resettlement site was almost ready to move. Now, while the specified resettlement sites are almost completed (near 90 %), almost all the relocating family have opted for self-relocation.

59. Ho Chi Minh City and Dong Nai Province are developing more new urban areas and industrial zones and which may need more resettlement sites. To meet the challenges and demand, the authority is setting up new resettlement sites for local people, workers and to reduce the population density from central area into suburban. In 2 suburb districts, Binh Chanh and Nhà Be, more resettlement sites are being developed to meet the resettlement demands. The same resettlement sites will be available for the affected persons of Ben Luc- Long Thanh expressway project.

60. The status of development of Resettlement Sites and relocation status of affected households are described in the Table -16:

to non-issuance of permit/license of new house construction. Out of these 4 HHs, 3 households, namely: ([This information has been removed as it falls within exceptions to disclosure specified in paragraph 97, (exception (x)

Information that, if disclosed, would or would be likely to endanger the life, health, safety, or security of any individual, or safety or

security of ADB assets, or to prejudice the defense or national security of a member) are creating hindrance in construction of main road. Not only this due to continued rain, these households are facing acute problem in living there. Therefore, it has been proposed by the implementing agency to Binh Chanh District PC to resolve the issue soon to avoid delay in construction and damage and hazards to HHs.

12.1 Final list of HHs participated in the income restoration program (IRP)

66. Up till Sept. 2017, the final list of eligible HHs in Tranche-1, who participated in IRP, is 873, an increase in 32 from 845 of the first survey list.

12.2 Vulnerable Group and their Participation in IRP

68. With reference to the MOU of ADB mission in March 2016 to identify the HHs of vulnerable group, the Conultant and the EPMU have worked with CoLFD in each District of the project from March to June 2016. The identification of vulnerable groups at Commune level was obligatory, with the objective to invite them to participate in the IRP. EPMU and the Consultant, with the exception of Binh Chanh District (where the information is still is unavailable), were able to identify and listing of vulnerable population.

69. Moreover, by the end of Sept 2017, information on the vulnerable households in Binh Chanh District is still not yet available even after a letter (No 27/BLLT-QLTCMB) issued by EPMU on 09 January 2017, to CoLFD Binh Chanh in order to speed up collection of this information for the IRP (see Annex. 6), but the information was unavailable at the time of preparation of this report. The local authority argued that as of now they are focusing on resolving obstructions in 3 Communes: Binh Chanh commune for HHs on two sides of HW 1A; Hung Long and Da Phuoc of Grievance, disputing and complaints of compensation price, hence, no time to identify the information of vulnerable group.

70. Most of the vulnerable households were invited to participate in IRP implementation and select income restoration activities.

71. Additionally, in two Districts; Long Thanh and Nhon Trach of Dong Nai Province, land acquisition is at slow pace, hence, the list of vulnerable group has not been prepared by the CoLFD

72. The number of vulnerable households, with name and address in each district, is summarized in Table-19 and annexed as Annex.- 6 of this quarter No 3 report of 2017
