**What do we plan? ** We are planning to build a great numbers of comfortable facilities, related to Sport, Public Art & Music, Children’s area, Green Environment and convenient facilities. Of course, there will be lots of trees along the path in the park. It will be a great place to enjoy some time but will take really long time and quite hard work to solve. ** Sport: ** We are planning to make the precinct where People can do and enjoy sport. In the sport area, there will be a mini-football stadium, a basketball court, a swimming pool and a large grassy field. The grassy field is for any other sport. There is a large changing room next to the swimming pool. Riding bike is permitted along the flat road in the precinct. People can hire a bike in a low and appropriate price. Also we plan to make artificial stream from the main river for fishing. The main purpose is not to kill fish but for people who love fishing. (Only allowed to catch at most 3 big fish) There will be sport carnivals once every 6 months. Quite many sport competitions will be held such as football, running, boating contests and some others.

Public Art & Music: ** There will be a nice and big concert hall for more than 7,000 people including seats. The special characteristic of the concert hall is that it consists of a three-legged-movable-stage and a backstage. Also there would be an area with fences around it (in a hexagon shape). This is for some public art displays of many artist can participate. Along the road and park will be some sculptures and 3D painting on the street. EXTRAODINARY 3D PAINTING ON THE STREET This precinct is for family to have fun together so we are planning to build a children’s safe playground near the swimming pool. There will also be a children pool. Eco-garden will be a nice place for children to learn more about plant with their families (some children planting classes will be held). This is the environmental and clean precinct. We will have trees and flowers along the road. Eco Garden is also part of this. (Seeds and small plants are sold here) There won’t be animals living here but there will be from small and common plants to huge, rare, and wonderful trees. We will manage recycling system (3 main categories for dividing trash put in different areas) and cleaning water ways. Throwing rubbish into the river or outside the rubbish bin-destroying the beauty and clean will be banned. We are sure that people will be able to breathe clean and fresh air, and feel the freshness and cleanness of the green. Going Green, recycle days and activities will be held. The Information Centre will provide you with information for location, transportation, food court. The convenient facilities are where you can get convenient stuffs: food, map, location information, transportation and so on. For food, there will be supermarkets and food courts. People can get information of this precinct from info centers. As this precinct is too distant and large to move with walking, we have a plan to make boat and bike stations where we can use or take those transportations. It won’t be free but it will be appropriate and fair prices. As we’ve already mentioned, Saigon’s River was one of the cleanest and beautiful rivers according to many old Ho Chi Minh inhabitants’ opinions. However last 10 years, an incredibly rapid growth of industry in Vietnam have made Vietnamese major cities (Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City) extremely polluted. Especially, many Saigon River’s has been polluted in non-stop by chemicals from factory, from people lived by the river. That is what has changed Ho Chi Minh City-inhabitants’ consideration about the river into a disgusting, bad and disappointing river. So if we just leave that immeasurably potential dirty river for the next generations, from current people’s altitude to future generations’ perception about the river is and will be a dirty, smelly, not preferred, uncomfortable and embarrassing river. More and more people in Vietnam (particularly in Ho Chi Minh City) earn enough money to live and getting better life. It also means more and more people think ‘we are getting rich enough. We shouldn’t just make roads and factories. Now, we really need to think about saving the environment and the health of our relatives.’ Long before, we needed to improve our life economically but this is now our time to consider about how important natural environment is and start to make some progress about saving our earth footprints.
