Clear evidence

With the waterways cleared, a civilized, modern, and compassionate riverside city is taking shape more clearly than ever before...

The half-century journey of Ho Chi Minh City's construction and development is marked by significant urban beautification efforts. In particular, the revitalization of the canals has not only transformed the city's appearance but also clearly demonstrates the development philosophy that prioritizes people's well-being and security.

Looking back, many waterways filled with mud and garbage, such as Nhieu Loc - Thi Nghe, Tau Hu - Ben Nghe, or Tan Hoa - Lo Gom, were once a nightmare of pollution and poverty, with countless makeshift, dilapidated stilt houses.

Through decisive policy decisions and community consensus, these locations have now been transformed into ideal spaces attracting locals and tourists.

Such dramatic changes not only enhance the material value of land and infrastructure but, more importantly, improve the quality of life and create sustainable livelihoods.

Not stopping there, Ho Chi Minh City continues its momentum with regard to the remaining canals and waterways that hinder development. The Xuyen Tam canal, the Tham Luong - Ben Cat - Nuoc Len canal, and the northern bank of the Doi canal are clear examples of this…

When waterways are cleared, a civilized, modern, and compassionate riverside city, bringing peace, happiness, and sustainable prosperity, is taking shape more clearly than ever before. The stature of this megacity is also enhanced as a result.
