HCMC is set to announce policies for the conservation of old villas to safeguard its architectural heritage and stop unauthorized demolitions. The People’s Committee instructed the Department of Construction Management to keep an eye on the city’s nearly 900 villas built before reunification in 1975, and ensure they are not demolished or altered. The Ho Chi Minh City Institute for Development Studies has categorized 65 villas into two categories for conservation. The first tier consists of 16 buildings with defining architectural values, which are to be preserved exactly as their original forms. One of the most prominent villas in this category is at 110-112 Vo Van Tan Street. The century-old French-style building was sold to a private date company at $35 million in 2015.

Saigon braces for more record tides this year

· October 5, 2019 ·

On Monday the Southern Hydrometeorological Center reported that the tide rose to 1.77 meters at the Phu An Station on the Saigon River and 1.8 meters at the Nha Be Station on the Dong Dien River. This surpassed the previous high of 1.72 m set in 2017. Former deputy head of the center’s forecasting department, Le Thi Xuan Lan, attributed the very high tides to strong winds last week that caused the water level to rise in estuaries. She also pointed a finger at climate change. Since 1999 tide levels have been rising consistently. Lan said: "But this may not be the highest yet, because there are five more major tides to come this year. Of which at least one or two tidal peaks can come close to or break the recently established record." Prof Nguyen An Nien of the Ho Chi Minh City Water Resources Research Association said the rising tides in HCMC and the Mekong Delta are due to climate change and rising sea levels. Many provinces and cities in low-lying areas in the delta have seen … [Read more...] about Saigon braces for more record tides this year

· October 2, 2019 ·

At a regular government meeting on Wednesday, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc told authorities in the two cities and at the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment: "[We] must not let the public complain without proposing an effective solution." Deputy Minister of Natural Resources and Environment Le Cong Thanh said the two cities plan to install more air quality monitoring stations so that they could issue timely pollution warnings. A comprehensive national plan of action for improving air quality is being implemented, including building polilies and adopting specific measures to reduce the sources of superfine particles. "The Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment and localities will substantially implement this plan to improve the air quality in Hanoi and HCMC."
