Keangnam Enterprise said it will start building a 70-story tower in Hanoi this month, which will be the tallest structure in Vietnam, to be completed by 2010.

The South Korean builder said Thursday that it has received approval from the Vietnamese government for the $1.05 billion project named the Hanoi Landmark Tower. The compound of one 70-story building and two 47-story apartments will be erected in the burgeoning town of Pham Hung about 22 kilometers from Hanoi, it said.

The construction of the Hanoi Landmark Tower will epitomize South Korean firms' growing interest in the Vietnamese market. The Southeast Asian nation was the third largest destination for Korea's overseas investment in the first six months of the year after China and the United States.

``Its prospects are very bright as more and more multinational firms are making inroads into Hanoi, pushing up the demand for hotels, offices and high-end apartments,'' said Kang Chang-mo, CEO of Keangnam. ``The Hanoi Landmark Tower will become a symbolic structure that shows South Korea's capability in building skyscrapers.''

The Landmark Tower compound will consist of three buildings that will house a five-star hotel, a furnished residence for foreigners, offices, apartments, a convention center and medical facilities.

The main tower will stand 336 meters tall, about 50 meters shorter than the Empire States Building in New York.

For the new project, an investment consortium led by Woori Bank will inject $500 million while Keangnam will finance the rest, the firm said.

Vietnamese cities such as Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) have been known for their low-lying French colonial-era buildings with Vietnamese characteristics. Currently, the Saigon Trade Center is the tallest building in the country at only 33 floors (145 meters) high. But along with the Keangnam tower, several more construction projects over 60 stories have either been approved or are under construction in the Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh areas, reflecting the country's prospering economy.

It is not the first time for a Korean-made building to dominate the Hanoi skyline. Daewoo Group opened the 18-story Hanoi Daewoo Hotel in 1996 when there was no building taller than 10 stories in the city.

The world's tallest building is the Burj Dubai in the United Arab Emirates at over 520 meters and growing. South Korea's Samsung Corp. is the leading builder of the project. It is planned to reach 800 meters high by 2008.

It will be finished before Oct 2010 for the 1000 years birthday of Hanoi! :cheers:

One of many Celebaration Projects for this extreme event!^^

looks typical. Nothing exciting here...

but still a beautiful design i think

Very great ! 2nd tallest in SE Asia!

Very beautiful tower, and a great thing for Hanoi!

Hm, doesn't look that interesting... Quite boring for being considered a "landmark", sorry.

Good height though for SEA's second tier city.

It's very beautiful and excited

Actually, they will start to construct it on August 25th :naughty:

What a contrast with neighboring Thailand. How many highrise buildings in Bangkok??

Don't misunderstand me I'm happy for Viet Nam in building this tower - it is modern and very beautiful, I admire it! - but in South East Asia, we can see where the real business, financial, touristic, shopping, manufacturing and convention hub of the region is ... and it is not Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh, or Phenom Penh, or Yangon, or Penang or even Kuala Lumpur.

any construction updates?

:lol:

Let me tell you, it's also not Bangkok, Manila, or Jakarta. It's Singapore!

And you should remember that Bangkok was behind Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh) in the 50s and early 60s. I know it was the past, and now Bangkok is more advanced than Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh. But if Bangkok could develop so fast in the last few decades, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh can also develop even faster in the coming years. I know it takes time, but Saigon will once again become the Pearl of the Far East, due to its strategic location. Bangkok is not even its rival. The only city that can compete is Singapore.

Ops, $1.05 is staggering compared with labor charges in Vietnam:nuts:

Because it's a 5+ * hotel and 2 Luxury departments so i think the cost almost for the interior! ^^ ^^

For the Bone Structure 150 to 200 M$ is enough already! :ohno:

Does all three towers reach 336m?

Let me tell you, it's also not Bangkok, Manila, or Jakarta. It's Singapore!

:) Let me remind you that Bangkok (in the early 1900's) had PUBLIC ELECTRIC STREET CARS before Tokyo. Unlike Singapore, Ho Chi Minh, Hanoi, Yangon, Manila, KL, Jakarta .... Bangkok has always been free and independent and never a colonial vassal of some European or American power.

Certainly I agree Singapore is a great city ... a wonderful city, clean and sparkling with excellant highrise buildings. A real world class city! The beautiful gardens, and the charming neighborhoods like Little India.
However .....

1. Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi Airport surpasses those of the other cities mentioned. Many people consider it the newest, most ultra-modern, certainly one of largest, state-of-the-art airport in the world. The tallest air control tower in the world. The architecture is just stunning. Do you think such an airport will be built in Viet Nam in say the next 5 or 10 years?

2. You must admit that when it comes to Temples, Palaces, and Monuments, even Singapore can't match the grandeur, majesty and superb elegance of so many stunningly gorgeous historic structures like Wat Arun (Temple of the Dawn), Wat Pho (Temple complex of the Holy Bodhi Tree), Wat Pra Keao (Temple of the Emerald Buddha), Wat Benchamabhopit (the Marble Temple - with it's lovely gardens!), the Royal Palace, the Teak Palace, the Golden Mount (worth the Climb!), etc, etc ad infinitum!

3. The excellant modern Skytrain elevated rail system.

4. The Oriental Hotel, in my opinion - but also that Conde Nast Traveler[I][U] magazine - beats out Raffles Hotel in Singapore.

5. Because it is a Royal Kingdom, Bangkok oftentimes showcases glorious pagentry and spectacle. Examples, processions of the royal golden barges on the river, parades and military processions on the King's birthday, etc.

Well, I could go on and on, citing the restaurants, hotels, world class convention facilities (Recently Bangkok stole the title from Hong Kong for hosting the largest and most important jewelry convention in the world), shopping (Hong Kong still #1 - but the Siam Paragon Mall is wonderful), but you get my point. Frommer's Travel Guide was correct, in my opinion, when it reported that North Americans prefer Bangkok over Singapore because it was a more multi-faceted jewel, have more things to see and do, a modern city but somehow more exotic, more thrilling, more exciting.

Singapore is the cleaner than Bangkok, more orderly, more liveable, and closer to being an American metropolis. Bangkok, on the other hand, has something Singapore doesn't have: Bangkok wears the Resplendent robe of magnificent royal regalia be it the glittering temples, majestic architecture, elegant palaces, the sumptuous legacy of the Chakri Dynasty: an opulent royal capital. Bangkok is indeed opulent, Singapore never will be.:ohno:

No one here doubts or disagrees Bangkok is great city, certainly better than Hanoi and Saigon at the moment. But why you had to come up with sentences like this "What a contrast with neighboring Thailand. How many highrise buildings in Bangkok??", it's totally uncalled for, we dont need you to remind us of how great Bangkok or Thailand is, because this is a place to discuss about a Hanoi's project, it was you who came here first and made boarst of Bangkok first.

I personally think for a country who never suffered from a war like Thailand, it could have reached class of Japan or atleast South Korea by now.

Your point it well taken! You are quite right and ..... I APOLOGIZE!!! The purpose of these threads is not denigrate some cities or to boost some cities over other cities. I guess I just got very defensive when the previous commenter dismissed Bangkok (a city I love and hope to live in one day) and suggested Hanoi and Saigon were superior in the recent past.

In fact, several months ago I was in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, and was thoroughly enchanted by it. It is much smaller than Bangkok, and indeed much poorer, yet it was full of lovely historical buildings, the people were friendly, lots of very good restaurants, etc. So please excuse me if I got carried away in a heated moment of defensiveness ... you were correct to point out the inappropiateness of my comparisons!

Does all three towers reach 336m?

dont think so. :ohno:

dont think so. :ohno:
yep, only the highest tower reach that high..
this project was break ground yesterday..

:banana: :applause::cheers:

Go for Vietnam's first supertall! :D

all countries are getting supertalls but germany not :(

I would love to see more SUPERTALL popping up in Saigon and Hanoi :banana: and sure it will happen :banana:
Give us about 10 years in terms of time, then you will see how Vietnam has changed :banana:

Please correct me if I'm wrong ... but shouldn't we be referring to "Ho Chi Minh City" instead of "Saigon"???? C'mon it's more then a decade now ... we don't say "Leningrad" anymore, or "Constantinople" ... If the Vietnamese people want to call this city "Ho Chi Minh" I say why not?

No! HCM CITY is too long name, thus i prefer to use Saigon instead!

Well, we could abbreviate it to "Ho City" ... what do you think?????

Being too long is a real problem with the name of Ho Chi Minh City. In Vietnam, people call it the "City":nuts:

Hey man, pls. stop it! :D

Whatever, it's not the matter to be concerned in this thread!

nice building

delete

^^

WoW! That's a good post but just one thing. Reader's Digest is unbiased with their rankings so I don't believe in it. If you go to Forbes, Fortune, Money and other Business-Oriented magazines, those cities that you mentioned are on the top 15 list of the most visited cities for business and the best cities to start a global business (corporate business). Bangkok is also there but not on the top 15 list. I believe it was between #25 and #45. By the way, Singapore is also on the top 15 list. I think between #4 and #8.

Saigon is prefered name for the Saigonese to call theri city, so let keep it as the popular unofficial name. Who is Saigonese will agree with me.

By the way, there is noone call Saigon People as Hochiminh Citiese! :)

Hey man, pls. stop it! :D

Whatever, it's not the matter to be concerned in this thread!

why stop?

There's an update of the contruction site in first page

Congrats to Hanoi and Vietnam as a whole, this project is trully a landmark for your country!!!

It will be fantastic. It's a great Urban Area. But the City should clean up the old boroughs of the city. In the new area are just young and rich people live there.

Vietnam is a country which is one of the most fast growing country on earth. But there's many problem like the infrastructur. Old techniques and dirty streets. That's will be a big problem.

But with the new Keangnam Tower Vietnam can show how strong this land is.

this is not Keangnam site! This is Hanoi City Complex which is 65f/195m

good to hear hanoi have a great plan! =D

Why is a Korean company investing $1.02 billion in building this in Vietnam? They should have built this in China, change it to a more futuristic design and build it next to the SIFC.

The tallest building in Vietnam is now u/c!:banana:

InterContinental Hotels & Resorts to open Vietnam’s tallest hotel in 2011

source: IHG (http://www.ihgplc.com/index.asp?PageID=57&newsid=2057&rssfeed=ihgplc)


InterContinental Hanoi Landmark to occupy upper floors of a new 336-metre tower,
one of the world's tallest buildings

Singapore, 9 June 2008 - IHG strengthens its commitment to Vietnam, announcing the addition of InterContinental Hanoi Landmark, Vietnam's tallest hotel, to its growing list of InterContinental Hotels & Resorts under development. The company has signed an agreement with Korea-based Keangnam Enterprises to develop the brand new luxury hotel in the centre of West Hanoi. Targeted to open in early 2011, InterContinental Hanoi Landmark will have 383 rooms and suites and 300 serviced residences, occupying the upper floors of the 70-storey, 336-metre Keangnam Hanoi Landmark Tower. The development is expected to be among the 20 tallest buildings in the world.

InterContinental Hanoi Landmark will be strategically located in the centre of the capital city's new commercial, business, entertainment and retail district and a short walk from the new National Convention Centre. It will be part of a major US$1 billion, 46,000 square metre city centre complex with premium apartments, offices and retail outlets.

The hotel's atrium lobby, restaurants and bars will be located on the 60th floor, offering panoramic city views. Private lifts will lead to guest rooms and suites from the 59th to 69th floors, and on to the world's highest Club InterContinental lounge located on the top floor. Other hotel features will include a large outdoor resort-style pool with outdoor function space on the ground level, a state-of-the-art meetings centre and a fitness club.

When completed, InterContinental Hanoi Landmark will also be one of the world's tallest hotels. It will join the ranks of InterContinental Doha West Bay in Qatar, a 60-storey hotel opening in 2009, and InterContinental Nanjing in China, part of a 431-metre tower and opening in 2010.

Jan Smits, chief operating officer, Southern Asia and Korea, IHG Asia Pacific, said: "With five hotels and close to 2,200 rooms under development, IHG is one of the fastest growing international hotel operators in Vietnam. InterContinental Hanoi Landmark will be a significant addition to IHG's growing presence in this market. Our involvement in this project is a further indication of IHG's commitment to Vietnam."

Lee Young, executive managing director, Keangnam Enterprises, said: "We are delighted have IHG manage this iconic hotel under its prestigious InterContinental brand and we look forward to creating a market-leading product that meets the demands of the increasingly sophisticated traveller to Hanoi. InterContinental Hanoi Landmark will stand out as an exceptional hotel in the new centre of Vietnam's thriving capital and we're confident it will quickly build a global reputation for excellence."

In Vietnam, InterContinental Hotels & Resorts has two other properties under development - InterContinental Asiana Saigon in Ho Chi Minh City and InterContinental Danang Resort. Both are scheduled to open in 2009. InterContinental Hanoi Westlake, IHG's first hotel in Vietnam, opened in December 2007. IHG also has four Crowne Plaza hotels under development in Hanoi, Danang and Nha Trang.

InterContinental Hotels & Resorts is the world's first truly international luxury hotel brand, and is committed to providing its guests with memorable and unique experiences that enrich their lives and broaden their outlook. There are 153 InterContinental hotels worldwide with 62 new hotels in the global development pipeline. The brand is enjoying unprecedented growth in Asia Pacific, with 35 hotels operating and 30 new hotels scheduled to open across the region within the next three years.

there are so many cranes there. ^^

Maybe finally there will be a noticable landmark mark in an Hanoi and will help Hanoi skyrocket into a new global financial centre.

it has a new height. around 345m or so.

it has a new height. around 345m or so.


345m is up to the anten. They just add one more floor. ^^

How did you learn it? :lol:

Well I am Vietnamese.

$6 million bet illegal, lawyer says

A rendering of the Keangnam Hanoi Landmark Tower, which includes a 70-story skyscraper and two 47-story apartment buildings
Law experts say a wager between a South Korean company and a group of war veterans is as illegal as other forms of gambling in Vietnam.


A lawyer has called a wager illegal in which several Vietnamese war veterans and construction workers bet a South Korean builder US$6 million it couldn’t complete Vietnam’s tallest tower on schedule.

On Thursday, South Korea-owned Keangnam-Vina Company and several Vietnamese veterans signed a commitment in which the company pledged to wrap up the structural work of the Keangnam Hanoi Landmark Tower on schedule by October 2010.


If the South Korean firm misses the deadline, it would lose VND100 billion ($6 million) to Vietnamese veterans and vice versa.

Both the betting parties said they would donate the proceeds to charity.

The bet stemmed from an open letter issued on Thursday on the Cuu Chien Binh Viet Nam (Vietnam War Veterans) newspaper by several veterans, construction experts, and engineers who doubted the South Korean builder could conclude the tower as promised.

But speaking with Thanh Nien Saturday, lawyer Pham Quoc Hung from the Ho Chi Minh City Bar Association said the wager between the two sides was illegal.

The agreement would only be legal if it was designed as a “penalty fee” or “bonus reward” transaction between the investor and the contractor of the project, Hung elaborated.

Since the war veterans and construction experts have nothing to do with the tower project, the transaction would be sheer betting in a country where gambling is illegal, Hung said.

Under Vietnamese laws, locals are forbidden to gamble money and can face criminal charges when caught, Hung said.

But foreigners are allowed to gamble at several licensed casinos.

Le Hong Son, head of the HCMC-based Saigon Notary Office, agreed that the deal was illegal.

Speaking with Thanh Nien Saturday, Oh ChunSik , a manager at Keangnam Enterprises, said the firm had signed the agreement not for gambling purposes, but to protect its brand name instead.

Another allegation

In early October, several journalists sent a letter to the prime minister, the Hanoi government, and agencies concerned accusing Keangnam-Vina Company of selling apartments before completing them.

Vietnamese laws prohibit houses or apartments to be sold before the completion of the building’s foundation.

In late October, Deputy Prime Minister Truong Vinh Trong instructed the Hanoi municipal administration to probe the allegation and report back.

But Hanoi vice mayor Phi Thai Binh said inspectors had failed to report back Saturday as promised.

He attributed the delay to flooding in late October that left at least 22 people dead or missing in Hanoi.

He declined to comment on the betting deal.

Hanoi authorities looking into Korean project

The Hanoi Times - Hanoi is working o*n a report to submit to the government about the allegations that the Korean investor of the highest buiding in Vietnam, Keangnam, sold apartments illegally.

Phi Thai Binh, Vice Chairman of the Hanoi People’s Committee, said the committee is compiling the report to submit to the Prime Minister.

In late October, Vice PM Truong Vinh Trong asked Hanoi authorities to check the allegations that Keangnam sold 40% of the apartments of its 48-storey twin tower illegally.

Under the Housing Law, investors are allowed to sell apartments after the design is approved and the work’s foundation is built. Even then, they are not allowed to accept more than 70% of an apartment’s value.

This weekend a local newspaper “Vietnam Veteran Newspaper” published a letter written by a group of veterans and construction engineers which said that Keangnam sold o*n-paper apartments and they promised to present VND100 billion ($5.88 million) if Keangnam completed the construction of the twin tower o*n schedule.

According to Keangnam-Vina, the investor of Keangnam project, and the group of veterans and engineers, the two sides will sign a commitment o*n November 18 witnessed by Hanoi officials and the media. Accordingly, if Keangnam can’t complete this project in October 2008, it will have to pay VND100 billion to the group of veterans and engineers and vice versa.

Keangnam will not pay in cash with 11 apartments o*n the sixth floor of the 48-storey building and a penthouse.

Vice Chairman Phi Thai Binh said the committee hadn’t received any invitation from Keangnam to be a witness yet.

Binh said Hanoi authorities expect that the project will be completed o*n schedule but “everything must be done legally”, he emphasised

This tower should be build in Saigon ! Saigon skyline is better than Hanoi !


well sorry for you buddy, your city can't have anything she wants. something like this make me really angry. I hate ppl who are jealous and can't be happy for others. If you don't like it in HN, then just say nothing and pretend not to care.

^^ I don't think he is jealous , he could have said something more direct like you ppl in HN don't deserve to have such towers built there , while Saigon's money being drawn to the North especially HN , thieves are just scums of society , Hanoi ppl infiltrate the South to cheat , oppress and abuse South VN since 1975 up to now , they took all the money and resourse that's why they have the money to bet on the completion of this Tower ,a desperate act to have a super tall to show off from a bunch of low class and babarians

he is jealous otherwise he wouldnt wish it to be in SG. and you exploit the situation by finally saying what you always wanted to say.

hết chỗ cãi nhau hay sao mà đem ra đây cho bạn bè quốc tế ng ta nhìn vào ng ta cười. Ông Lamdai này cực đoan quá. Cao ốc thì ở đâu mà chả dc. Dĩ nhiên mình là ng SG, muốn nó ở SG nhưng nếu nó ở HN thì cũng đâu có vấn đề gì. Stop cãi nhau (nhất là bằng tiếng Anh) đi

Waw nice update. The flood has gone...

very nice project seems vietnam wants to join the fun and start building supertalls this ain't a bad start at all its simple yet elegant ;)

As far as I know, it's a South Korean company investing everything and building it. I don't see how Vietnam will join the other cities like Bangkok and Singapore with this foreign-owned building?

http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb213/ndtuyen89/HN08_11_27/tn_P1030560.jpg

Nice! It seems this is the first underground floor. :okay:

We have more proposed/passed and U/C Supertalls you know...

As far as I know, it's a South Korean company investing everything and building it. I don't see how Vietnam will join the other cities like Bangkok and Singapore with this foreign-owned building?

You must know that the Investor and Management from SK but the Raw Money Cash to build this project are from Vietnamese Pocket and the construction companies who are doing the project directly are Vietnamese companies and they are using Vietnamese worker.

They SK investor will not propose and invest in this project if they have not know that they can earn Money from it. They are not stupid or too much nice like a rich gentleman to a poor friend country like Vietnam....:bash:

Open you mind wide please... everything is Money and Money also is everything...:cheers:

^^ lol, u talked as if the VNmese ppl are the ones that give the money for the SK Investor to build this. So, the Korean Investor, thought that they could gain $1 billion (the investment capital) from VNmese ppl, whose income this year just barely exceeded 1000USD? And why was the investment money accounted for FDI? Are the CEOs and Senior Supervisors of the project VNmeses? Do the SK Investor in Dubai must bring SK workers there to build Burj Dubai? Or Capital Land must bring Singaporean workers to Phnompenh? No?

wow th flood is gone. :okay: That was quick. :D

Sorry but it's the fact.

Kindly do not blame the facts. It's just obviously... (you make a quetion that "how can they earn back 1 B $ investment?" so why don't you make easier questions from the start "why do they still doing a lost promising project?" "Are they stupid?" (may be they are really stupid) but are you sure that you are smarter than them? :ohno:

Do not make question over questions when you've already known the answer. It'll show out your arrogant and may be ignorance to other people. They read and they just smile in silent. :lol:

You can learn from me they way that I've treated and Ignored your Ignorance posts. I have no time and my brain is not free for that. I can help for the reasonable and in a proper manner posts only. Sorry man because I have told about the things that you don't want to read and understand. But as time go by you can't change all of your personalities but you can growth up some day. :cheers:

Have your time and prepare for your feedback (as usually I guess). But make sure that it's reasonable and in proper manner. We are not kids any more and I also believe that you are not stupid dear friends :cheers:

These words of u, r not so ignorant as u claimed?

These are typical biased words from a hypocrite person such as urself
that every saigon members in VN forum have ever known u for so long :lol:. By the way you talked, u did it as if only hanoi is the most capable city of VN to have such huge building, as if saigon - the biggest city of VN- aint got a damn land to build it. Moreover, u claimed that the investment $$ are sourced from the ppl, and with the above statement u implicitly implied that hanoi is a much richer city than saigon, which deep inside you always want it to be while it's not. For short, u tried to play saigon down. But i'm not surprised, we're accustomed to seeing words such as these from a hyprocrat like u for such a long time. In your post u always try to show that u'r blank as a paper, no side u'r on, but unless the audience are fools or retards, sarcasm and hidden bashing intention and sometimes insults towards saigon and southerners are always spotted on your foxy mouth. Try to ask saigon members from Vietnam forum and everyone can get the same answer about u.

sometimes u can be the same and I'm totally surprised. However, a lot of ppl talk bad of Hanoi too and totally gerneralise Northern ppl. It might be true to a certain extend, but it only shows their ignorance or jealousy, that's why I don't listen. Having always this conflict is pretty exhausting and senseless. Moreover, the right ppl (city) don't need to defend themselves by bashing other ppl (city). This is totally wrong. I can give the words to ppl who deadly wanna make down Hanoi, but I know what I know, so I don't need to fight back by saying bad things as well. LOL, that's so childish.
I don't see wulizhong's intention to make SG down in any way. Don't missunderstand him, sometimes it is only his sarcasm.

Nếu lần sau ai có ý định tiếp tục đánh chém nhau thì xin vui lòng xổ tiếng Việt nhé.

Ko hiểu sao các pác lại khoái (sùng bái) cái tòa Keangnam nãy dữ ko biết, hay chỉ vì lý do duy nhất là nó cao? Chứ riêng em, em thấy thế này:

1) tòa nhà landmark của 1 thành phố ko nên là apartment, nếu có thì kiến trúc phải cực độc đáo. Cũng may là cái thằng Keangnam này có kính xung quanh, nếu ko thì ko biết 5 năm sau đi ngang dám thấy áo quần treo lủng lẳng ngoài lang cang lắm à nha.

2) Ko rành về kiến trúc, nhưng em cũng dư sức thấy kiến trúc nó thuộc dạng cổ, tức là giống những tòa nhà xây vào 80s, 90s ở HK, or Sin...nên vì vậy càng ko nên xây cao và dĩ nhiên càng càng ko nên là landmark...thôi thì kệ nó đi, VN còn nghèo mà lại thích khoe, nên miễn xây cao là...đạt yêu cầu.

3) Rõ ràng tòa Keangnam đặt chỗ đó không hợp rồi vì nhìn nè, mấy nhà xung quanh gúm quá:

Mà muốn tìm chỗ hợp nhất ở HN cũng khó nữa, vì HN xây office với chung cư lộn xôn quá, ít nhất phải như khu Q1 (sg) thì may ra hợp lý hơn. Nên cũng thông củm cho cái bạn j j đó.

Dân skyscraper nói vậy thôi, chứ thằng đầu tư nó nghĩ quái j tới mấy chuyện này chứ. Cuối tuần vui vẻ các bác:cheers:

wow...! that building looks huge in its renders..
amazing.. very good project for Hanoi..

I tried but i cannot see any sarcasm here. I agree that there r a lot of ppl talk bad about hanoi, but look at their background, most of them (if not all) are the 'Knights of the Old Republic' (if u know wat i mean) that bear with them the traditional grudge against the commies, while this wulizhong is a citizen of the capital of VN, he should represent a typical Hanoian - or a typical VNmese maybe. And with this gentleman wulizhong's history of post in the VN-forum, we all know how 'great' his 'sarcasms' are, with attention mostly directed at saigon & its members and most of the time makes them angry. Sometimes this guy even contradicts himself by saying the otherwise what he had stated before. I must admit that he's really good at provoking, while i'm only good at bursting out my thoughts impulsively, but as u said, i also nv talked bad about hanoi the city.

With his opinion about saigon, i felt angry and replied with strong words, but knew when to stop, to prevent a flame, that's why i didnt say anything else, even in his post about Keangnam i also argued normally, but too bad this guy just wanna show his true color.

^^ World financial crisis is spreading every where I wonder if it will affect VN's development like this project , if it won't , there must be some kind of money laundering here , as I have known Northern VN ppl is quite good at this especially ppl from Hanoi and Haiphong , they are quite a group of ruthless people , unfortunately the whole VN has been under their feet for too long , and now ladies and gentlements this is their harvest from looting all Vietnamese over the years ! tobe continued ...

amazing design. very modern scraper

With money you can get all you want , off course this is a beautiful ,amazing , modern skyscraper with blood money from South Vietnamese !

That 's exactly what I meant about you ppl :bash: , drinking blood from the South ?

Feel free to say what you wanna say. The whole world is listening to you here.

Good ! people around the World should know more about Hanoi's supertalls at South Vietnam's oppression ! 35 years have passed the North is building and developing like crazy while South VN at a stand still or even in worse state !

Good ! people around the World should know more about Hanoi's supertalls at South Vietnam's oppression !

next time you should come with a longer story. This is too short. It has neither an introduction nor a conclusion. It is hard for the foreigners to understand the thing behind your intention.

they will as time passes ! it takes Hanoi 37 years from 1975 _2008 to have those fotos shown above so it will take days , months for foreigners to understand how North VN has been capable of doing so ! I hope I am not the only one who will tell the story here !

Sorry, but this is not a Vietnamese forum...

What's you have said are all correct, it's not 80s or 90s it's must belong to 70s Design.

But the problem and also the fact is it's under construction and your guys (as long as I can count in this thread is about 3-4 boys or girls I'm not sure) also still want to put it in Saigon or even show out the exactly location in District 1 - Q1 :lol::lol::lol:

It's a lousy project and ugly design how can you put it in the most beautiful district of Saigon - the richest and most popular city in Vietnam. So ashame right?

As what I have posted...

I can give time for reasonable and in good manners like these posts only. Just like your post Saigonily. :cheers:

very nice project! :)

Yes it is because they grab all money from Vietnamese for Hanoi to have this supertall project leaving ppl starved that they have to escape VN , children went for prositution , young girls went to mary old Korean men , men went to do drug trafficking and get caught many times at international Airports

Hanoi is a very generalised word. You may offend innocent groups and the city herself.

hows the progress of this project now ??

Why do they need supertalls in Hanoi ? it isn't the biggest and most populated and commercial driven City in VN , it's only to show off no more or less

stop trolling sunami.

It is a fairly average design. Nothing to write home about.

Ooo a great tower indeed

You forgot Bangkok and Manila (u/c).

ah ya...but manila has U/C..??
when i saw up date picture..its seems Hanoi tower construction will be finish first then Manila...
thats why Hanoi will be the 2nd city that will have tower +300m at south east Asia...
a year later perhaps Hanoi will be the 3nd city, cause Manila project will more taller than Hanoi...

Isn't Malaysia considered South East Asia?? Petronas and Menara Telekom over 300m.

^^ this thread is about Supertall projects that are under construction. The two buildings in Malaysia were completed years ago....Yes, Malaysia is part of Southeast Asia.

As to Manila, the u/c is Gramercy Residences....

vietnam is booming.............

chinatown= thx for ur information...

isnt saigon the financial center of vietnam?

I thought Saigon was the other name of Ho Chi Minh City, the largest city in Vietnam. HANOI (in north vietnam) is the CAPTITAL of Vietnam, while HCM/Saigon is the largest city in vietnam. Similar to the comparison of Beijing and Shanghai.

oic,so Saigon is financial center,while Hanoi is political and cultural center, is there any old king palaces in vietnam, i never seen them on this website

Yes we Vietnamese got our own version of Forbidden City (in Beijing, China) in the city of Hue - the former capital of Nguyen Dynasty of Vietnam, located in the middle of the country.

Hue is perhaps best known for its historic monuments, which have earned it a place in the UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. The seat of the Nguyen emperors was in the Citadel, which occupies a large, walled area on the north side of the river. Inside the citadel was a forbidden city where only the concubines, emperors, and those close enough to them were granted access, the punishment for trespassing being death. Today, little of the forbidden city remains, though reconstruction efforts are in progress to maintain it as a tourist attraction as a view of the history of Hue.

Roughly along the Perfume River from Hue lie myriad other monuments, including the tombs of several emperors such as Minh Mang, Khai Dinh, Tu Duc, and others. Also notable is the Thien Mu Pagoda, located not far from the city centre along the river, the largest pagoda in Hue and chosen as the official symbol of the city.

The quality isn't in good reservation like those in China though.

The message is about working out - meaning internal problem on financial, restructuring the finances/capital needs. I just hope that this won't affect the project in Hanoi.

I thought that it's in Osaka...

Actually in Japan Skyscraper is not a interesting topic.

They just need stable and efficient constructions not those slim, slick, grossly and pretty towers

Look at this "Titan Square" Landmark Tower for an example...... it's look like in Alien movies and quite Freak also :D

its the construction on-hold now...???

Linden Comansa builds Hanoi's highest
Written by Euan Youdale - 21 May 2009

source: khl (http://www.khl.com/magazines/international-cranes-and-specialized-transport/detail/item37628/LC2100-in-Hanoi/)


Four Linden Comansa tower cranes are working on the US$1 billion Keangnam Hanoi Landmark Tower complex in Vietnam.

http://www.khl.com/servlet/file/37623_2_preview.jpg?ITEM_ENT_ID=37623&COLLSPEC_ENT_ID=32&FILE_SERVICE_CONF_ID=2

Two each of the 18 tonne capacity 21 LC 400 and 12 tonne 21 LC 290 flat top models will help construct the 336 m high main tower and two further buildings offering retail units and luxury residential and hotel accommodation.

The tower will become the tallest building in Vietnam and the 17th tallest in the world, says Linden Comansa. It is being constructed by South Korean investor Keangnam on a 46,000 square metre area. The complex will have a total floor area of 579,000 square metres, ranking 5th in the world for a single building, adds Linden Comansa. It is due to be opened in 2011.

The four tower cranes are the first to use the new internal climbing system from Linden Comansa, offering a double ladder, which provides quicker and easier use, says the company.

fantastic development....new skyscraper will raise at Hanoi.....

very pretty, I liked it project!

this area will become the quarter of the big enterprises (Keangnam, Viettel, Agribank, VNPT, PetroVietnam...) with their superlative projects. So many skyscrapers are going to surround Keangnam with a nice lake and park in the center. it has something Central Park-a-like. someone should make a list with all the projects :cheers:
