Many old villas in Hanoi which are in the list of being needed for preservation have been transformed into restaurants. Villas at 51, 51A and 55 on Hang Chuoi Street in Hai Ba Trung District have been converted into restaurants. The houses have also seen big interior changes with various decorations on the walls.  Particularly the villas 51 and 55 are named in the city’s architectural value list. So, the change of construction materials or paint colour needs to be approved by the municipal Department of Architecture. Meanwhile, the owner has to seek a licence for the restoration work. The same problem has also reported on streets such as Hai Ba Trung, Tran Quoc Toan and Nguyen Thai Hoc. Old architectural styles have been replaced with modern interiors which are suitable for shops and restaurants. Most of Hanoi’s old villas are located on main streets with high land prices. This encourages their owners to take advantage of them to earn money. Part of … [Read more...] about Hanoi old villas turned into restaurants

Staff of the hospital's Department of Microbiology used blood samples on each half of the test strip to determine whether a person had HIV. The results were shown about four hours later. The misconduct was discussed at a Monday meeting between the hospital's managerial board and Hanoi Department of Health. The hospital denied having provided the compromised trips, saying they were from the Luc Tinh Company, a private medical equipment supplier. "The HIV test strips that were cut were provided by Luc Tinh Company free of charge and they were not the ones provided by the hospital for its patients. They were used as an experiment. The cut strips were not provided by the hospital and were independent from the tests done for its patients," a spokesperson of the hospital said at the meeting. "All the HIV rapid tests were not given to exploit health insurance benefits," the spokesperson added. Nguyen Dinh Hung, the hospital director, said Tuesday that only 40 such strips had been cut in half … [Read more...] about Hanoi hospital cuts HIV test strips into two

"Quang Hai scored two beautiful goals. He is a high-class player. I haven’t yet decided on tactics for the second leg but maybe we will pay much more attention to this player," Hojageldiyev said at a press conference after the game on Tuesday night. Hanoi FC head coach Chu Dinh Nghiem said he was not worried about Hai being marked by their opponents in the second leg. "It’s true that Quang Hai played very well in this game. But Hanoi FC is a team. If Altyn Asyr focus on Hai, we still have other players that can score, like Van Quyet and Pape Omar," Nghiem said. Hai was modest about the two stunning goals that he scored in the game played in Hang Day Stadium, Hanoi. "My two goals were okay. I have no secret, I just simply work hard when training and give my best for the team. Although I may have bad games sometimes, one thing for sure is that I always give it my all. After each game, I learn to improve myself and to play better." Nguyen Quang Hai (R) dribbles past … [Read more...] about Opponents’ coach praises Hanoi FC midfielder for outstanding performance

The first leg had ended 2-2 at home, Hanoi FC faced an uphill task of winning without conceding or drawing by scoring three goals or more to advance to the continental final of AFC Cup. The Vietnamese team were in trouble right at the outset as 4.25 SC went on the offense to exploit its home advantage, repeatedly threatening the Hanoi goal. But Hanoi FC showed good defense and repelled all attacks. On the other hand, however, Hanoi FC’s Pape Omar and Nguyen Quang Hai failed to convert any of the chances they got to open the scoreboard. With nothing to lose, the 2019 V. League 1 champions began the second half with an extra striker in the lineup. They dominated possession and created many chances, but attacking players like Omar and Nguyen Van Quyet kept missing their shots. In the six additional minutes of the game, a defender joined the strikers, but nothing registered on the scoreline, allowing 4.25 SC to the proceed to the continental final of AFC Cup on the strength of … [Read more...] about Hanoi FC end AFC Cup journey with goalless draw in second leg interzone final
