A Study on Risk management for social housing development by phases in First-tier cities in China

Construction projects are subject to various uncertainties that impact on achieving the project objectives. This is most apparent in the case of PPP projects due to the number of contracting parties with conflicting interests. Effective risk management in such projects becomes crucial. This paper presents a conceptual framework for managing risks in PPP projects for housing development in Nigeria. The purpose of the conceptual framework is to use it for further studies. The conceptual framework is based on extensive review of related literature in the area of PPP and risk management. It identifies the essential variables for the study. The paper described some major characteristics of PPPs as well as the processes involved in their risk management. The study concludes that, PPPs are most effective when there are adequate legal and regulatory frameworks for smooth operation of PPPs, and the risks sharing structure is spelt out clearly in the contract with adequate measures for enforcing the provisions should any of the contracting party default.

Survey Results

Nghiên cứu được thực hiện nhằm đánh giá thực trạng phát triển nhà ở xã hội (NOXH) cho người có thu nhập thấp (TNT) tại một số đô thị trên địa bàn tỉnh Bình Định trên cơ sở thu thập số liệu từ các phòng ban chức năng và khảo sát thực địa. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy phát triển NOXH tại tỉnh Bình Định đã giải quyết vấn đề về nhà ở cho 1.876 hộ TNT trong giai đoạn 2009-2019. Nguồn cung về NOXH cho người có TNT có sự thay đổi tích cực: giai đoạn 2018-2020 tăng gấp 12,55 lần so với giai đoạn 2009-2017. Các dự án NOXH cho người có TNT tập trung chủ yếu ở thành phố Quy Nhơn cho thấy sự đầu tư có trọng điểm, có thứ tự ưu tiên. Tỉnh đã huy động được các doanh nghiệp tư nhân tham gia đầu tư xây dựng NOXH cho người TNT. Tuy nhiên, nhiều dự án NOXH cho người có TNT chậm tiến độ hoặc không triển khai, chưa tiếp cận đúng người TNT có nhu cầu nhà ở, tình trạng sang nhượng NOXH không đúng quy định, chất lượng một số công trình chưa đảm bảo và công tác quản lý NOXH chưa đạt hiệu quả mong muốn. Trong nghiên cứu cũng đề xuất được một số giải pháp nhằm tăng hiệu quả tiếp cận NOXH cho người có TNT tại Bình Định. ABSTRACT This study was conducted to assess the status of social housing development for low-income people in some urban areas in Binh Dinh province based on data collection from functional departments and survey results. Research results showed that the development of social housing for low-income people in Quy Nhon city, An Nhon town and Bong Son town in Binh Dinh province has provided 1,760 apartments for people with low income in the period of 2009 - 2019. In this period, 10 housing projects for low-income people were implemented in the study area, of which 05 projects were launched for sale and 05 projects were delayed. The supply of social housing for low-income people has not met the targets, the management and development of social housing for low-income people in the study area is not strict. According to the social housing development plan, the total social housing supply will be 3.966 units in 2020 and 4.900.550 units in the period of 2021 - 2025. The study has proposed four solutions to increase the effectiveness of social housing development for low-income people in Binh Dinh.

Recurrent Theme

Drawing on studies in governmentality, this paper considers the ways in which the selection and allocation of households for social housing have been conceptualised and treated as problematic. The paper urgues that the notion of ‘need’ emerged relatively slowly over the course of the twentieth century as the organising criterion of social housing. Yet ‘need’ became established as a powerful tool used to place those seeking social housing in hierarchies, and around which considerable expertise developed. While the principle of allocation on the basis of need has come to occupy a hegemonic position, it has operated it continual tension with competing criteria based on notions of suitability. As a consequence, this paper identifies risk management as a recurrent theme of housing management practices. By the 1960s need-based allocation was proving problematic in terms of who was being prioritised; it was also unuble to resist the challenge ofdeviant behaviour by tenunts and the apparent unpopularity of the social rented sector. We argue that the tramition to advanced liberalism prefaced a shift to new forms of letting accommodation bused on household choice, which have been portrayed as addressing core problems with the bureaucratically-driven system. We conclude by reflecting on the tensions inherent in seeking to foster choice, while continuing to adhere to the notion of need.

Development Policies

Ho Chi Minh City is considered as one of the most developed economic and financial centers of Viet Nam. In addition to the achievements, the city's development has also put considerable pressure on addressing housing needs for the residents. In recent years, the demand for social housing for low-income people in developed cities has accounted for a high proportion, up to 60% of the total. Although the city government has been had many policies to encourage investers to participate in social housing projects and provide financial support for home buyers, the results are still quite limited. Currently, real estate projects are generally focused on commercial housing projects due to high profitability and fast capital recovery time; together with the house prices in urban areas are constantly increasing and many times higher than the average income of the residents. The above factors have put great pressure on urban housing development to ensure basic rights to accommodation of the people. The article summarizes the current situation of social housing development policies in Ho Chi Minh City from 2006 to present; assess achievements and shortcomings; thereby proposing solutions to help improve the effectiveness of social housing development policies in urban areas.
