The goal of "green super city"

At a recent meeting between the leaders of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee with departments, branches and a famous enterprise in the field of manufacturing "green" vehicles to protect the environment; many specific actions expected to be implemented in the near future were announced. In which, the City is coordinating to implement the Project "Green Transformation - Expanded Ho Chi Minh City"; programs and action plans such as "For a green Can Gio", "For a green Con Dao", "Sharing electric vehicles" (car/bike sharing) in Can Gio and Con Dao.

The city is also developing a project to control vehicle emissions. The Department of Construction is currently reviewing and carefully assessing the impact of policies, solutions and implementation conditions. The Department of Agriculture and Environment is coordinating to prepare a report proposing adjustments to the investment policy to improve environmental monitoring capacity in the city.

At the meeting, the idea of ​​implementing an international standard electric school bus system was also put forward. Accordingly, this school bus system will control the journey and information of students getting on and off. Parents can check the journey information, know where their children are going and where they are coming back without having to stop work to pick up their children from school.

In particular, the program of converting electric vehicles for all technology drivers and two-wheeled delivery drivers in Ho Chi Minh City, the units have conducted field surveys, determined the implementation needs, resting places combined with electric charging stations for technology drivers. In June 2025, the master plan to convert 400,000 motorbikes to electric vehicles will be completed, and an expert seminar will be held to consult on the plan. It is proposed to organize a workshop to announce the program and implementation roadmap in July 2025. At the meeting, the leader of the City People's Committee emphasized the special interest in green conversion programs and projects: "The City leaders identify green conversion as a field that creates great value and serves the orientation of sustainable development".

Although there are still conflicting opinions regarding the issue of green transformation, reality in recent years has shown that "greening" is not only a trend in the world and Vietnam, but also suitable for the reality of large cities in Vietnam, suitable for the needs of many consumers...

Not only are people interested in how workers in the technology vehicle sector will be supported to switch from gasoline vehicles to electric vehicles, but many localities are also expecting the model that Ho Chi Minh City is planning to implement to bring great efficiency so that other provinces and cities can learn and apply.
