RESOLUTION
ON A NUMBER OF MECHANISMS AND POLICIES TO STEP UP THE DEVELOPMENT OF DORMITORIES FOR TRAINEES AND STUDENTS OF TRAINING ESTABLISHMENTS AND HOUSES FOR WORKERS IN INDUSTRIAL PARKS AND LOW-INCOME EARNERS IN URBAN CENTERS
Over recent years, the State has promulgated many mechanisms and policies to create conditions for all economic sectors, households and individuals to build houses. The housing conditions have been markedly improved for people of all strata, including ethnic minority people, poor households in rural areas and regions frequented by natural disasters. However, for some reasons, a number of social subjects in urban centers, including trainees and students of universities, colleges, professional secondary schools, intermediate vocational training establishments; workers in industrial parks; public servants, armed forces personnel and low-incomer earners, still meet with housing difficulties.
In order to solve the housing problems for the above-said subjects, to contribute to stopping the economic decline, boost production and business, stimulate investment and consumption and ensure social welfare, at its meeting on March 31. 2009, the Government resolves:
Part I
VIEWPOINTS, OBJECTIVES

To step up investment in the construction of dormitories for trainees and students (below referred collectively to as students' dormitories) of universities, colleges, professional secondary schools, professional colleges, intermediate vocational training establishments, regardless of whether they are public or non-public (below collectively referred to as training establishments), houses for workers in industrial parks, export processing zones, hi-tech parks (below collectively referred to as industrial park workers' houses) and low-cost houses for low-income earners meeting with housing difficulties in urban centers (below referred collectively to as low-cost houses).
2.
