Time for Thu Thiem
Thu Thiem will relieve some of the pressures Ho Chi Minh City currently faces. The infrastructure within Ho Chi Minh's existing CBD is starting to buckle under the pressure of rapid expansion in the last three decades. The undersupply of Grade A office stock in the CBD is pushing rents higher, reaching levels not seen since 2008. Traffic congestion has increased over the past five years, with the number of cars increasing 35 per cent annually from 2012-2016 according to VAMA figures.
