Boy Falls Into 35-Meter-Deep Hole

Rescue workers in the province of Đồng Tháp Province are currently working to save a 10-year-old boy who fell into a concrete hole. The boy, Nam, entered a construction site at 11:30 a.m. on December 31 to collect scrap metal with two other boys on provincial road No. 857 in Ph Li Commune.

The rescue crew arrived on the scene thirty minutes later and made several attempts to save him. The pillar would not come out despite their best efforts. The boy in the hole received water and oxygen.

To save Nam, the rescue crew worked all night. Three excavators and one crane were used by the team of about 100 people this morning to dig the hole needed to remove the concrete pillar.

The boy has still not been retrieved from the hole as of 11:30 this morning.

Hanoi Considers Fees For Cars

As part of its efforts to reduce traffic jams, which cost the city an estimated $1 billion annually and have made air pollution five times worse, Hà Noi may think about charging vehicles entering the inner city.

Don Minh Tâm, a former leader of the Institute of Transport Science and Technology, stated to the online newspaper Dân Tri, “We need to review ongoing solutions for traffic jams.”

He proposed three components of the solution, including seeking expert advice for Hà Noi’s traffic planning to 2030 with an eye toward 2050, a proposal for motorcycle-restricted areas, and a plan to charge vehicles entering the inner-city areas.

Vietnam Resolving Maritime Disputes

By Joe Fotalattee

An agreement announced on December 23rd resolves Indonesia and Vietnam’s 12-year maritime boundary dispute.

The agreement announced during Vietnam’s President Nguyen Xuan Phuc’s 3-day state visit to Indonesia will ease long-standing tensions between the two nations. China asserts ownership of a portion of the territory that Vietnam and Indonesia had previously disputed, but China’s claim of “historic rights” to the region was rejected when Indonesia and China settled their boundary dispute under the United Nations Convention of the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). The agreement is a significant step toward a unified front by China’s neighbors in the peaceful resolution of maritime disputes in the South China Sea.

The agreement was a component of numerous initiatives aimed at enhancing bilateral cooperation. By 2028, the two leaders hope to increase bilateral trade to $15 billion. It also resolves years of disputes over fishing areas in the region.

Vietnam’s Economic Growth in 2022


By Joe Fotalattee

In 2022 Vietnam had the fastest annual growth rate in GDP since 1997 thanks to robust domestic retail sales and exports, which increased by 8.02 percent.

The reading is higher than the official growth target of 6.5 percent and growth of just 2.58 percent in the previous year, when COVID lock-downs hurt the economy and affected factory activity.

Despite worries about a global recession and its effects on demand for Vietnam’s exports—a major producer of goods like apparel, footwear, and electronics for well-known international brands—the country has experienced a high annual growth rate.

The General Statistics Office (GSO) stated in a report that “the economic performance is noteworthy amid global economic and political uncertainty and challenges.”.

According to the report, consumer prices increased by 4.55 percent in December from a year earlier. Retail sales increased 19.8 percent in 2022, while exports increased 10.6 percent to $371.85 billion, according to the GSO.
