We are five master students from the Technical University in Delft, the Netherlands, aged between 22 to 24. During the upcoming 8 weeks we will perform a project about the Mekong Delta. The project is part of the Mekong Delta Transport Infrastructure Development Project funded by The World Bank. The objective of this project is to do research and improving the transport and infrastructure of Can Tho City, Vietnam. By improving this, a polder of Can Tho City is created regulated with several sluices to improve the flow of cleaner water through the city and regulate frequent flooding. Together with the improvement needed for transport on waterways and bridges, the access to markets by businesses, farmers and the poor will lead to lower logistics costs and at the end will improve the welfare of the city.
