Laws and Practice on Land Management in the Context of Digital Transformation in Vietnam

The Vietnamese real estate market has been complicated in the past 5 years; real estate prices have increased and fluctuated; land management activities are still limited and have not resolved many arising issues, creating obstacles in the process of buying, selling, using and transferring land by people and businesses. Social management practices in general, and land management in Vietnam in particular, are posing new requirements for state agencies, people and businesses when many new technologies are applied. These are requirements for digital knowledge and skills to implement the goal of national digital transformation to improve the efficiency of social management activities. In this study, the author mentions the content of land management, land management efficiency and factors affecting land management efficiency in the trend of digital transformation in Vietnam. Based on the built scales including "Land Management Efficiency", "Digital Data", "Digital Civil Servants" and "Digital Citizens", the author conducted a survey of 360 leaders of commune-level government agencies of 3 provinces representing 3 regions of Vietnam, including: Thai Binh Province (North), Ha Tinh Province (Central), Binh Duong Province (South). The survey aims to assess the practical effectiveness of land management and identify practical factors affecting the effectiveness of land management in Vietnam. From the survey results and analysis above, the author draws research conclusions and policy adjustment implications to improve the effectiveness of land management in Vietnam.
