Many people in southern Vietnam have rushed to return railway tickets as they skipped their hometown-returning plans for the Lunar New Year holiday for fear of new coronavirus outbreaks in ten provinces and cities in the past week.
The mass ticket return has taken place at Di An Station in Binh Duong Province, Saigon Station in Ho Chi Minh City, and Bien Hoa Station in Dong Nai Province.
The passengers started pouring to Di An Station in Binh Duong to return purchased tickets on Monday, right after the southern province announced its second community case of COVID-19 infection.
