According to the Government Newspaper, the merger of provinces/cities - reducing from 63 to 34 - is a national administrative reform of great significance, not simply changing the provincial and municipal map, but a turning point in comprehensive restructuring to build a streamlined, modern administration, capable of taking advantage of opportunities in the new era. Merging provincial administrative units does not mean losing local identity, but to elevate the locality. It is not erasing history, but writing a new chapter on a larger scale and higher level.

- Hanoi0%

After merging with Ba Ria - Vung Tau and Binh Duong, Ho Chi Minh City became the most populous city in the country with about 14 million people.
With this population, Ho Chi Minh City has a larger population than some small countries in the region and in the world.
However, in terms of population density, Hanoi is the locality with the highest population density in the country with more than 2,600 people/km2, far surpassing Ho Chi Minh City (about 2,000 people/km2). The city with the third highest population density is Hai Phong with more than 1,460 people/km2.
5. Which new province has the smallest area in the country?

The province with the smallest area after the merger is Hung Yen with 2,515km2. Hung Yen (old) originally had an area of only 930km2. After merging with Thai Binh (nearly 1,600km2), this is still the province with the smallest area in the country.
However, Hung Yen has a fairly large population density after the merger, with more than 1,400 people/km2, among the provinces with the highest population density in the country.
The population characteristics of Hung Yen reflect the urbanization model and high population concentration in the Red River Delta.
In addition, despite becoming the smallest locality in the country, the economic scale of Hung Yen after the merger is among the leading in the country.
