300 km2 of HCM City would be flooded at water level +2.0, apart from Can Gio
area.
650 km2 of HCM City involving 6 sub-catchments was considered in the master
plan 2001.
Large shifts of hydrological data and urbanisation make the planning obsolete.

OFT:
An important principle of Sustainable Urban Flood Management
is to introduce SOFT components, which can be adjusted to adapt
with UNCERTAINTIES of urban development and climate
changes.
ELF REGULATION:

should not overload neighborhoods
with excess runoff or reduction of original discharge capacity.
CATTERED:
Distributed systems for various flexibility, -adaptability and -risk
probability.
YSTEMATIC:
Operation should be centralized and early-warning based.

Conclusions
While sea level rise is still a potential danger,
danger
negative impacts of human-induced activities have
been direct causes of the urban flood in HCMC
HCMC.
Protection
Protection measures
measures using Hard solution may
not capable to cope with such Uncertainties.
Conclusions
A dynamic balance among Protection,
Protection Adaptation
and Retreat is requirement for the flood sustainable
management strategy and can be determined by a
robust DSS.
Conclusions
Community- and Real Estate Developer
involvement in Flood management is essential.
