HA NOI (Biz Hub)— The Ministry of Construction said development of apartments sized under 30 sq.metre per unit was under consideration.

Deputy Minister of Construction Nguyen Tran Nam said the move aimed to meet the housing demand of singletons and low-income earners.

The current standard area for low-income apartments ranges from 30 sq.metre to 70 sq. metre.

Nam said small apartments should not be considered slums, but added they must meet minimum living conditions for residents, as well as fire safety requirements. — VNS
