Pollution change in Ho Chi Minh City

=>Ho Chi Minh City grows very fast in population from 1979 to 2009. In 1979 it has only 3,4 million people. Ten years later it increases a little with a population of 3,9 million. This number increases sharply from 1989 to 2009. It has added more than three million people to the population of Ho Chi Minh City. We can see that in only more than 30 years, the population has doubled. It has grown so fast!
