Up to now, the Group provides about 15% of total housing in Korea; 35 projects are implementing in 19 countries. In Vietnam, the Group is implementing projects for development of industrial park infrastructure and construction of smart urban and social housing.

The representative from LH Group is committed to building social housing in Bac Ninh with the best quality and full facilities at a reasonable price.

Especially, Bac Ninh is a key industrial province of the country with about 400,000 employees, and this will be a great advantage in the construction of social housing, meeting the needs of accommodation for workers.

The province has now 47 social housing projects with a total usable area of 148.87 hectares, of which, 21 housing projects for workers and 26 projects for low-income housing. It is expected that in the period of 2022 - 2025, the province will allocate 69.08 hectares of land for social housing. 75.09 ha will be allocated in the period 2026 – 2030.
