Public minibuses remain on HCMC’s agenda despite the government’s rejection of the proposal since most of its streets are narrow and the metro has been delayed.
Ha Ngoc Truong, vice chairman of the Vietnam Bridge and Road Association, called for trialling minibuses on the outskirts and the central area, which has many narrow alleys. "This [will] show the public the convenience of minibuses and indicate the demand for them."
