Nguyen Kim Hoang from the Can Tho City Construction Department said except for the KfW-funded concentrated waste water treatment plant with capacity of 30,000 cubic meters per day, which is under execution, other waste water treatment projects in the city still have not received capital.

Tháng 6, nhớ “Cơn lốc màu hoa hồng” trên cầu Thị Nghè

Tháng 6 hằng năm, cứ đáo lệ có cách quãng luân phiên là mùa Euro Cup hay World Cup. Vào mùa Euro Cup 2008, về đội bóng tôi thích nhất, kỳ vọng nhất là đội Hà Lan, đội bóng của “đất nước hoa tulip”, thì chỉ đến hết vòng tứ kết là những “cơn lốc màu da cam” không còn cuồn cuộn trên các sân đấu nữa. Tôi còn nhớ năm đó, trước cái đêm oan nghiệt 21 tháng 6, Hà Lan bị Nga loại với tỷ số thê thảm 3 – 1, tôi vẫn tràn trề lạc quan về đội bóng thần tượng của mình. Khi ấy tôi hào hứng đến nổi, từ hình ảnh “cơn lốc màu da cam” của các cầu thủ Hà Lan, tôi đã thiết tha nghĩ ra luôn danh hiệu “những cơn lốc màu hoa hồng” thật kỳ mỹ đặt cho những chị em bán hoa chạy rất dễ mến trên cầu Thị Nghè cũng vào thời gian ấy.
