By Ms. Hien Vuong, Design & Sustainability Manager, EZ Land and Co-Chair of the ESG Committee of AmCham Vietnam –
Ms Hien Vuong, will be writing a series of articles on the connection of design, the construction of your house and the sustainability of infrastructure and climate change. She will look at three focus areas – urban flooding, air quality and green space – faced in Ho Chi Minh City and give her ‘architect’s’ solution.
Two months after moving back to Vietnam with my husband, the rainy season hit.
I had forgotten this part of living in Vietnam and we decided to venture out while it was pouring and immediately found the street that we take every day was now a knee-deep river.
Our bike almost died that night.
If you are a long-term resident of Ho Chi Minh City, you probably know this scenario all too well.
