Traffic problem hinders HCMC’s tourism development
With millions of visitors, including 5 million foreigners, visiting Ho Chi Minh City every year, tourism has become one of the city’s key economic sectors. However, traffic problems are posing a challenge to the sector.
Traffic congestions always take place in the city centre. Pedestrians even cannot walk on the pavement as drivers take their place.
The country’s southern economic hub targets to serve 5.5 million foreign visitors and 24 million domestic ones this year.
To achieve the target, dealing with traffic problems is a must.
