This information was provided by the People's Committee of District 1 at the regular socio-economic press conference of the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City on the afternoon of January 25. This locality is organizing a peak period to strengthen urban order during the Lunar New Year in the area, focusing on key areas such as Nguyen Hue walking street, Bach Dang wharf park and around Notre Dame Cathedral.
The People's Committee of District 1 said it will strictly handle acts of littering in public places, parking on the road or sidewalk; beggars, street vendors soliciting tourists; performing statues, blowing fire, using skateboards, and electric balance bikes that do not ensure safety for residents and tourists on Nguyen Hue walking street.
During the Tet holiday this year, District 1 organizes the 2024 Tet Street Corner Competition with the theme "Spring Connection, Tet Love", with over 100 Tet corners and 5 spring streets expected. This model has won 2 Ho Chi Minh City Creative Awards in 2023.
In addition, the district also organizes the 2024 Giap Thin Tet folk culture festival at the small island area in front of Ben Thanh market with activities for people and tourists to experience the ancient Tet festival and culture of the Southern region.
