Slums inside a city, solve it now before it gets too late

Category: Living in Vietnam Add comments

Only after a decade, Phu My Hung in District 7 of Ho Chi Minh City has transformed from a marshy outskirts area to a sharply developing center. The development process of the city requires a lot of labor to provide services (construction, sales, sanitary, maintenance) to the citizens. Not being able to afford the extremely high real estate price in the area, these people are gathering in certain less (much less) luxury vicinities somewhat away from the heart of the city.

Now, adjacent areas such as Him Lam or Trung Son are also growing with no less rapid rate. This development accidentally surrounds the mentioned living blocks of less luxury, creating so-called slums inside the developed city.

Where to plan accommodations for these labor - District 8, District 4 or Binh Chanh? If not planned right now, the slums will grow beyond an easy-to-tackle level, hurting the view of the city and even feng shui setups by many Japanese, Taiwanese, Chinese and local constructors.
