In 2009 Vietnam had planned to build two nuclear power stations with a combined capacity of about 4,000 MW in the south-central province of Ninh Thuan, but the National Assembly rejected the proposal in 2016 on cost grounds.

Earlier reports have said that Vietnam was considering a return to nuclear power after 2035 with the construction of about 1,000 MW of capacity by 2040 and 5,000 MW by 2045.

Seem like they are finding investors and partners to help turn this project into a feature film for theaters.

Hundreds of thousands of fish die off in Vietnam as heatwave roasts Southeast Asia

A mass fish die-off in a reservoir in southern Vietnam’s Dong Nai province has shone a new light on soaring temperatures in Southeast Asia.

Fishermen have been working to wade through and collect the hundreds of thousands of dead fish that have blanketed the 300-hectare Song May reservoir amid a ferocious heatwave.

Intense drought swept through Vietnam’s south in April as temperatures soared to nearly 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit), leaving farmers struggling to keep their crops alive.

Community members and local media are blaming the drought, heatwave and problems with the reservoir’s management as contributing factors.
