Rach Chiec Sports Complex: A 30-Year Dream Coming to Life?
The recent proposal by Sun Group to invest in the Rach Chiec National Sports Complex has reignited hope for Ho Chi Minh City’s sports infrastructure—especially after its merger with Binh Duong and Ba Ria - Vung Tau, forming Vietnam’s largest mega-city.
However, turning this proposal into reality won’t be easy. The project has been stuck in suspended planning for over 30 years, with land clearance and compensation issues being the main roadblocks.
Expert Doan Minh Xuong: The New Ho Chi Minh City Needs a Sports Icon
Ho Chi Minh City Needs a Modern Stadium Like Bukit Jalil in Malaysia
According to sports expert Doan Minh Xuong, a mega-city of this scale needs a world-class stadium, a strong professional football club, and a symbolic venue that represents Vietnam’s sporting aspirations.
Sun Group’s proposal could be the answer—if the government grants land with long-term tenure, allowing the developer to invest, operate, and reinvest effectively. The sports complex should not only be functional but also serve as a cultural and national icon.
Mai Ba Hung: If Rach Chiec Breaks Ground, It Will Be a Milestone
Former Deputy Director of Ho Chi Minh City's Department of Culture and Sports, Mai Ba Hung, stressed that land clearance is the key obstacle.
The Saigon Sports City project, despite having clean land since 2019, has yet to materialize—highlighting the need for strong political will.
Beyond sports, the investment in a national complex is a long-term investment in public health, a shift from reactive healthcare to proactive well-being.
