Traffic jams are hindering the economic development of Ho Chi Minh City – the country’s largest economic hub, said Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai.
While meeting with local leaders on December 28, he said the current traffic congestion is not only a problem of HCM city but also an issue concerning the whole nation. He asked the city’s leaders to work with relevant ministries and branches to put forward new initiatives and solutions to the issue.

Mr Hai suggested that the city enhance local people’s awareness, strengthen traffic inspection and management work, speed up transport infrastructure development projects and improve its bus service.

According to the municipal Department of Transport, there were 69 serious traffic jams in the past 11months of this year, up 25 over the same period last year. The city now has approximately 4.4 million vehicles.
