The new Bến Thành bus terminal on Hàm Nghi Street in HCM City’s District 1 opened to the public on Thursday.

A 2.2km stretch of road in the capital city has become the most expensive one in the country so far, being built at a cost of VNĐ3.5 billion (US$152,00) per metre.

Heavy rains coinciding with the sowing season in the central province of Phú Yên caused the submerging of hectares of winter-spring rice over the past few days.  

The Central Bus Terminal, the most modern bus infrastructure worth roughly VNĐ100 billion (US$4,400) in this central province, has failed to attract passengers after four months of operation.

Minister of Education Phùng Xuân Nhạ, said that it was high time pedagogy schools stop the oversupplying of teachers in many provinces and cities.

Beginning next year, districts will be responsible for managing parks and trees, and the HCM City People’s Committee will invite competitive bids from the districts to explain how they would maintain green spaces. 

A forest of trees at the foot of Hoành Sơn mountain in central Hà Tĩnh Province has come back to life, thanks to the efforts of one man.

The number of water buses operating in HCM City’s new transport service remains low, causing long wait times for passengers, according to media reports.

Multiple transportation firms have proposed reducing the number of Build – Operate – Transfer (BOT) toll stations as well as road maintenance fees by 30 per cent.
