Tài chính dự án cho đầu tư hạ tầng tại Việt Nam

Trong hơn hai thập kỷ qua,Việt Nam là nước đứng thứ hai châu Á đạt kết quả cao về xóa đói giảm nghèo, chỉ sau Trung Quốc. Tốc độ tăng trưởng trung bình hàng năm là 7,5% và tỉ lệ đói nghèo giảm từ 51% xuống 8% dân số đã đưa Việt Nam đến con đường trở thành nước có thu nhập trung bình (WB, 2008). Để đáp ứng nhu cầu hạ tầng xuất phát từ mục tiêu xóa đói giảm nghèo, xấp xỉ 11.4% GDP hàng năm cần được cung cấp để đầu tư cơ sở hạ tầng, tăng 2% so với hiện tại. Như vậy, Việt Nam cần xấp xỉ 7 tỉ USD trong năm 2010 để hoàn thành đầu tư vào hệ thống hạ tầng. Trong khi đó, tổng ngân sách từ ODA, chính phủ Việt Nam và người tiêu dùng chỉ khoảng 3.9 tỉ đô la Mỹ (55,7%) như hình. Vậy phần còn lại của ngân sách thiếu hụt là từ đâu? Để trả lời câu hỏi này, chính phủ Việt Nam đã nhận ra sự cần thiết trong việc cải cách thị trường tài chính về việc đầu tư vào các dự án mà trước đây do nhà nước thực hiện và quản lý.


Hình 1: Đầu tư tài chính cho phát triển hạ tầng tại Việt Nam

Thành công của nhiều nước Đông Nam Á chỉ ra rằng hệ thống tài chính cho cơ sở hạ tầng của Việt Nam cần thay đổi từ hệ thống tài chính với các khoản nợ chính phủ và quốc tế thành hệ thống tài chính tư nhân. Đây là lý do giúp cho chính phủ Việt Nam có nhiều thay đổi năng động hơn và thiết lập hệ thống tài chính cho cơ sở hạ tầng theo định hướng thị trường, đặc biệt khuyến khích các thành phần kinh tế tư nhân tham gia. Với nhận thức được tầm quan trọng về vai trò của khu vực kinh tế tư nhân, chính phủ đã và đang phát triển mô hình Hợp tác Nhà nước – Tư nhân (Public Private Partnership-PPP) cho các điều kiện hạ tầng đa dạng.

Mặc dù PPP được ứng dụng để tiến đến việc huy động vốn từ khu vực kinh tế cá nhân từ năm 1990 nhưng khái niệm này chỉ tiếp cận Việt Nam đầu những năm 2000. Tuy nhiên, những bất lợi trong khuôn khổ pháp lý PPP là rào cản chủ yếu ngăn chặn khu vực kinh tế cá nhân đến với các dự án hạ tầng tài chính tại Việt Nam. Để cải thiện tình hình, chính phủ Việt Nam đã phát hành nghị định mới 108 để thay thế nghị định 78 cũ trong năm 2010. Do đó, tiến trình phát triển PPP đã rõ ràng và hiệu quả hơn trước đây. Hy vọng rằng điều này sẽ khuyến khích nhiều hơn sự tham gia của tư nhân vào đầu tư hạ tầng tại Việt Nam.
Điều quan trọng đối với một công ty đầu tư là phải hiểu được cách tham gia vào các dự án PPP. Một khi quyết định tham gia các dự án PPP, các công ty nên biết cách xác định phạm vi tham gia, đưa ra nghiên cứu tính khả thi về tài chính, phân tích ảnh hưởng của các điều khoản nhượng quyền, và kiểm soát rủi ro trong suốt các giai đoạn khác nhau của dự án.

World Bank's expert in transportation planning and engineering gives lecture at AIT

Dr. Asif Faiz, an adviser/consultant with the World Bank in transportation planning and engineering, delivered a lecture entitled “The Promise of Rural Roads” on 30 August 2011 at the Milton Bender Auditorium. All students from the field of Construction, Engineering and Infrastructure Management were encouraged to attend this seminar.

Dr. Faiz’ presentation is based on his keynote address at the 10th International Conference on Low Volume Roads, held in Orlando, Florida in July 2011. Below is the abstract.

Abstract

About 33.8 million km. of roads girdle the earth‘s land mass of 148.9 million sq.km., (an average 0.23 km of road per sq.km of land area); about 61%.of this kilometerage is paved. Nearly all the unpaved roads (13 million km) and an estimated 85% of paved roads (17 million km) are low-volume roads (LVRs) -- with an Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) of less than 1000. These 30 million km of LVRs have a wide variety of geometric and paving standards ranging from barely motor able earth roads to modern high-speed two-lane paved highways. The global asset value (replacement cost) of these LVRs is conservatively estimated at about US$ 7.6 trillion (a lower-bound estimate) equivalent to about 50% of the estimated 2010 Gross Domestic Product of the United States. Beyond this classified system is another realm of designated trails, tracks, and paths as well as minor roads that serve enclave development (mines, industrial estates, agricultural plantations , irrigation schemes, tourism, forestry and so on), that together number into millions of kilometers and also contribute to basic access and mobility.

The presentation reviews the role of rural roads in improving rural connectivity, catalyzing economic growth and reducing poverty, managing natural disasters and man-made crises, sustaining rural livelihoods and enhancing livability. In short the paper highlights the promise of rural roads as a harbinger of opportunity, progress and prosperity. In addition, the presentation discusses what sustainability and its more practical subset--livability, mean in relation to rural roads and how the application of context sensitive solutions to rural roads could help achieve a better balance among the economic, social, and environmental dimensions of sustainability.
