As reported by Tuoi Tre Online , in 2023, for the first time, Ho Chi Minh City is no longer an ideal destination for immigrants from other provinces and cities. The immigrant population growth rate is only 0.67%, equivalent to 65,000 people.

According to many readers, the decrease in immigration to Ho Chi Minh City shows the development of other provinces and cities because they have invested in many facilities to attract workers to "leave the city and return to the countryside".

And this is also the time for the megacity of 13 million people, which is under great pressure in terms of infrastructure, traffic, etc., to look back at itself.

Immigrants have more choices

There are many jobs in the hometown, many industrial parks are opening… are the reasons readers give for the decrease in immigrants to Ho Chi Minh City.

According to readers Mimi, Hung and Hue, the provinces now have many industrial parks. Workers have more job opportunities and more choices. Therefore, they choose to live near home but still do the same work as in the city.

“That is a good sign. Jobs are distributed in the provinces. No one wants to be far from home and family” – reader Le Danh expressed.

“If provinces have more factories and industrial parks to attract local workers, workers will suddenly leave the city and return to their hometowns,” reader Giang Ha added.

And according to reader Pham Dung: "Now every province has an industrial park, so it is reasonable for workers to choose to work near home, without having to spend money on commuting every time Tet comes."

Reader Cat Duong analyzed education , currently other provinces and cities have many schools, it is not necessary to go to Ho Chi Minh City. Regarding employment, industrial centers have opened across the country, especially in the Red River Delta with many large corporations.

“These provinces have really “cleaned the nest” very well to welcome the “eagles”. For example, the neighboring provinces of Ho Chi Minh City such as Binh Duong , Dong Nai, Ba Ria – Vung Tau also have no shortage of jobs in industry, services… and the cost of living is more affordable”, another reader added.

Thinking that farming in the countryside is enough to eat, working as a factory worker is still leisurely. Going far away from home, rent, children's education, hundreds of other things are expensive, at the end of the year there is no money left in the pocket. "So choosing to stay in the countryside is good!", reader Manh wrote.

Adding his opinion, reader Phuc Anh shared that after the COVID-19 pandemic, many ordinary workers realized that their salary was only enough for daily expenses, or even insufficient if they did not spend wisely.

Many people have almost no spare money to take care of their families during the days of social distancing due to the epidemic. That is no different from living in the countryside. Therefore, according to reader Phuc Anh, when the epidemic is over, many people will not return...

For Da Nang readers, “perhaps Ho Chi Minh City is gradually losing its appeal, because the traffic infrastructure is not yet developed appropriately, the cost of living is high… Meanwhile, industries and technology are investing heavily in many places, and graduates can find such companies.

This is the development cycle of a city, it will be an opportunity for Ho Chi Minh City to regulate, redistribute population, build new ones, arrange, clear out... so that the city's architecture has a modern, civilized appearance...".

Not necessarily sad but happy

Many readers also pointed out that the reduction in the number of immigrants in Ho Chi Minh City is not necessarily a sad sign. Reader Hiep and reader with email address hoan****@gmail.com assessed that the reduction in immigrants in Ho Chi Minh City is a good sign because the infrastructure of Ho Chi Minh City is currently overloaded with a large population.

“Schools, traffic are overloaded, many places are jammed… I just hope that the population can be dispersed, and even labor-intensive industries can move out of Ho Chi Minh City, such as garment and processing… It will benefit both the people in the province and Ho Chi Minh City” – reader Xuan Lam expressed.

Reader with email address vant****@gmail.com thinks that   The decline in immigration to the city is an inevitable trend as neighboring provinces develop industrial zones. Ho Chi Minh City is increasingly overloaded and it is time to “relax”!

Reader Nguyen Viet Trung, Dien Bien Together, we express our views: this is a good sign when many people no longer have to leave their homeland, and it is also an opportunity for Ho Chi Minh City to improve the quality of life of its people and develop civilized and modern infrastructure.

According to a reader with the email address thie****@gmail.com, in the future, Ho Chi Minh City will have fewer unskilled workers. Gradually, Ho Chi Minh City will be a place that attracts high-quality workers with good incomes.

Reader Binh Son concluded: "Labor-intensive industries are gradually moving out of the city, leading to a decrease in low-skilled labor and a decrease in demand for cheap accommodation. This is the trend.

On the other hand, the city should prioritize high-tech, high-skilled industries. Workers will have high incomes and the demand for apartments with good living conditions will increase. This is an inevitable trend when the city shifts its production structure to high-skilled industries.
