Ho Chi Minh City resolves key project bottlenecks, including park and flood control

Ho Chi Minh City is celebrating the resolution of significant bureaucratic obstacles for 12 major projects, highlighting the Ly Thai To Park and a massive VND 10 trillion (approximately $390 million) anti-flood initiative as prime examples of progress. These projects, once stalled by complex legal and administrative issues, are now moving forward thanks to government intervention and new policies.

The ambitious anti-flood project, initiated in 2016 under a build-transfer (BT) contract, faced a significant setback in November 2020. Despite achieving over 90% completion, construction halted due to unresolved legal challenges and difficulties in allocating land to the investor as payment. After years of stagnation, a solution for land compensation was finalized, paving the way for the project's restart in early February 2026. The project is anticipated to be fully operational by the end of 2026.

Resolving these long-standing issues required extensive efforts, involving hundreds of official documents and inter-agency coordination. The key breakthrough came with the government's issuance of Resolution 212, which specifically addressed the challenges faced by these two projects. This resolution aims to clear bottlenecks, mobilize societal resources, and ensure the timely completion and operation of these vital infrastructure developments, thereby preventing waste and financial losses.

Meanwhile, the Ly Thai To Park, located on a 4.4-hectare public site in Vườn Lài ward, has been transformed from a long-vacant former government guesthouse into a significant public space. City officials acknowledged the contribution of central government agencies, like the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in optimizing land use for the city's benefit. The park, inaugurated on February 12, is seen as a crucial element in the city's strategy to improve its urban environment, increase green spaces, and provide accessible public areas for residents. City Chairman Nguyễn Văn Được praised the park as a project of profound humanistic significance, a place for remembrance and connection, and thanked all parties involved for its completion within a demanding 90-day construction period.
