 Land pricing confusion 
 
 After the debate failed to reach an agreement on land pricing, a central management officer told me, "there is no need to pay much attention to land pricing, the project is put up for auction or bidding, the task is done in accordance with the prescribed process. " 
 I think life is not as simple as that, the project is many and many, and it is not always "fight". Moreover, if investment is called for and incentives are initiated, the investment environment is no longer attractive. 
 Market valuation is the key. But how to price land by market value is also a problem that keeps us puzzled, causing the Prime Minister to issue a telegram to the Minister of Natural Resources and Environment and the president of the provincial People's Committee to remove difficulties and problems. 
 There are three major problems related to land pricing. First, unclear management of land pricing is a hindrance to the approval of development investment projects. Second, the legal framework on land pricing is not transparent, which makes the competent persons in the state sector always afraid. Third, the entire land price management system is deviating.
 The major policy on "land prices set and decided by the State must be compatible with the prices of land traded on the market under normal conditions" was defined in Resolution No. 26 of 2003 and the 2003 Land Law. It has been 20 years since then, and every 10 years the above policy is reaffirmed once more and more strongly. But in reality, the State's land price table still represents only about 40% of the market price and cases where the State decides on specific land prices also show that the majority are significantly lower than the market price. 
 A "loose" legal framework on land prices is tormenting the cadres responsible for deciding land prices. Now, under Resolution No. 73, the competence to determine specific land prices is transferred from the provincial to district levels, and the perception of land prices becomes more "bounded". 
 First of all, the land price concept is misunderstood, leading to the assumption that land prices are now high and later low, thus cannot have market prices. In fact, market prices cannot be a fixed quantity. Vegetable, fish, meat scales... are now high and later low. Therefore, statistical data of countries all have "Consumer Price Index", calculated from monthly statistics on the prices of "a basket" of essential consumer goods, including house and land prices.
