The city’s government has submitted a project proposal to the Central to create an innovation city by merging its three eastern districts of Thu Duc, 2 and 9. It is expected to spread over 22,000ha and be home to more than 1 million people. The city will be developed into an innovation hub of industry, scientific research and service.
The new city, temporarily named Thu Duc City will be larger than neighboring provinces of Binh Duong and Dong Nai, he stressed.
The three districts of Thu Duc, 2 and 9 will be members of the innovation urban area. The District 2 needs to maintain urban construction order and enhance the management of public lands, not let unauthorised works break the architectural plans, said HCMC Party Chief Nguyen Thien Nhan.
