00:00:03.472 --> 00:00:06.876 
Once one of the black spots of
spontaneous pregnancy waste causing pain 

00:00:06.876 --> 00:00:11.132 
on Nguyen Hong street, Hanoi city, was
recorded by Lao Dong newspaper in May 2025. 

00:00:11.732 --> 00:00:16.572 
However, by the end of March 2026, this
area had been cleaned up. 

00:00:16.992 --> 00:00:21.381 
No-dumping signs are erected along with
the excitement of local people as living 

00:00:21.381 --> 00:00:22.732 
space is being presented. 

00:00:23.998 --> 00:00:30.438 
And the residential area is also
thoroughly grasped with the people 

00:00:30.438 --> 00:00:33.058 
So there is a change 

00:00:33.058 --> 00:00:36.878 
Well, now it's clean 

00:00:36.878 --> 00:00:39.978 
People passing by here every
day are very eager 

00:00:39.978 --> 00:00:43.798 
It is that this is maintained
for a long time 

00:00:44.626 --> 00:00:48.136 
However, according to the latest records
of reporters in the late afternoon of 

00:00:48.136 --> 00:00:51.106 
April 5, waste began to reappear
at the old collection point. 

00:00:51.546 --> 00:00:54.505 
Large and small trash bags are
scattered, despite the efforts to 

00:00:54.505 --> 00:00:56.926 
maintain the environment of the government and local people. 

00:00:57.226 --> 00:01:00.551 
People said that this situation is
mainly due to a part of ordinary people 

00:01:00.551 --> 00:01:04.826 
who are used to it, so they still
casually throw their heads away every time they pass by. 

00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:09.141 
Sometimes people are new, so they still
pass by, they throw it, so they 

00:01:09.141 --> 00:01:10.620 
don't know who it is. 

00:01:10.860 --> 00:01:14.381 
This end and that end are thrown away
very dirty, even garbage trucks are left 

00:01:14.381 --> 00:01:17.433 
in front, because it used to be a
garbage collection point here, leaving 

00:01:17.433 --> 00:01:19.780 
garbage trucks makes people throw them away as a habit. 

00:01:20.263 --> 00:01:24.650 
Not only here, but in many other areas
of Hanoi, there are still spontaneous, 

00:01:24.650 --> 00:01:26.843 
shabby cranes, which tarnish the urban face. 

00:01:26.986 --> 00:01:30.938 
I must say the issue of waste sorting,
although we are currently sparse, some 

00:01:30.938 --> 00:01:34.606 
wards and communes have done it, but I
think it is not possible. 

00:01:35.046 --> 00:01:38.387 
The problem is that there must be a
total of 126 communes and wards, and two 

00:01:38.387 --> 00:01:40.266 
halves of the common streets, what to do now? 

00:01:40.466 --> 00:01:43.406 
We must solve the problem of
garbage, never let it remain. 

00:01:43.666 --> 00:01:46.315 
Because I said that the environment is a
measure of urban civilization, not 

00:01:46.315 --> 00:01:49.371 
leaving Hanoi to still exist, at the
beginning of this street there is a pile 

00:01:49.371 --> 00:01:52.426 
of garbage, at the end of that
neighborhood there is another pile of garbage, etc. 

00:01:52.426 --> 00:01:56.986 
I think focus on solving the problem of
waste, in a way of frying, in a way of 

00:01:56.986 --> 00:02:00.026 
patience, in a way of perseverance,
somehow we will handle this first. 

00:02:00.467 --> 00:02:04.138 
To maintain green and clean streets,
military campaigns or signs prohibiting 

00:02:04.138 --> 00:02:05.807 
littering alone are not enough. 

00:02:06.247 --> 00:02:10.887 
Fighting spontaneous waste requires more
synchronous and drastic efforts from local authorities. 

00:02:11.307 --> 00:02:14.467 
But the most important thing is still
the change in each individual's awareness. 

00:02:14.587 --> 00:02:18.361 
The capital is only truly civilized when
garbage becomes a habit and 

00:02:18.361 --> 00:02:21.507 
environmental protection is considered
the responsibility of the entire community.
