Ho Chi Minh City’s VND 10 Trillion Tidal Flood Control Project Set to Begin Operations by Year-End
Major works on Ho Chi Minh City’s VND 10 trillion tidal flood control project are 94% to 100% complete, with further work planned for November 2026 and operations expected by year-end. The project covers about 570 square kilometers and affects roughly 6.5 million people, but gaps in flood defenses and drainage connections remain. Its full impact on flooding has yet to be tested.
