Nearly 1.7 million people have left Vietnam’s Mekong Delta over the past decade, driven partly by climate pressures on farming and fisheries, a World Bank report says.
The findings were released on December 17 in Can Tho City at a conference co-hosted by the World Bank in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos and the Can Tho Institute for Socio-Economic Development, presenting the study Living or Leaving: Life in the Mekong Delta region of Vietnam.
