Kim Lien Market closure in Hanoi

Overview

Kim Lien Market in Hanoi was suspended from operations on September 14 following inspections by the Hanoi Fire Prevention and Rescue Police. Authorities identified several safety violations and deficiencies regarding fire prevention and fighting conditions, leading to the disconnection of electricity and water at the site.

The closure affected approximately 200 small traders, prompting requests from vendors and residents for temporary trading spaces to protect their livelihoods. In response to the shutdown and reports that no alternative locations were provided, the Chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee, Vu Dai Thang, ordered an urgent investigation. Local authorities have been tasked with proposing temporary business arrangements that comply with safety and hygiene regulations to address trader grievances and prevent social instability.
