Vietnam is rapidly advancing in smart city development, with efforts accelerating due to the COVID-19 pandemic and increasing awareness of the importance of sustainable urban spaces. Major cities like Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, and Can Tho are leading the way, developing smart city frameworks and gradually transforming city services. The government’s Decision No. 749/QD-TTG, approved in 2021, provides guidelines for provinces and municipalities to formulate their smart city roadmaps. However, while smaller cities like Da Nang benefit from clear paths to smart development, established metropolitan areas such as Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi face challenges due to existing infrastructure. Ho Chi Minh City has prioritized its smart city transformation with four key tasks: creating a shared database, establishing a simulation and forecasting center, developing a smart administration center, and enhancing information security. Initiatives like the Smart Urban Operation Center, which is supported by U.S. partners, and the Simulation Division for traffic management, highlight the city’s commitment to integrating technology into its urban planning. The city is also fostering innovation by encouraging the use of open data ecosystems, providing accessible data on health, transport, and the environment for public and private use. In addition to city-wide initiatives, district-level smart projects like Saigon Sports City and Thu Thiem Lotte Eco Smart City are underway in Ho Chi Minh City. These projects incorporate smart security, mobility, and environmental solutions, along with innovations such as green energy technology, intelligent buildings, and waste treatment systems. These developments reflect Vietnam’s commitment to creating sustainable, high-tech urban areas, with collaboration between domestic and foreign partners playing a crucial role in this transformation. Through these initiatives, Vietnam is positioning itself as a leader in smart city development, with a strong focus on sustainability and technological innovation across its key urban areas.
