There have numerous incidents.

One that stands out was to seize land on the coast across which a bridge to one of the coastal islands is built. Long term, a heavier bridge will need to be built in one of several locations better suited for a heavier structure. Short term, the owners were renting the land to the government for next to nothing. There was no reason to seize the land at all, since the state had use of it and in the long run the road on it will need to be rerouted.
