I actually worked with a guy who ran a civil engineering company in Vietnam back in the late 2000’s and from what I could gather the Vietnamese are very proud of the infrastructure projects they take on, so I wonder if it’s a pride thing?
I'm sure they got that juche in them, but I also think public works projects just move very slowly here, there's only like one metro line in Hanoi for almost 9 million people and I don't think they've even completed the first one in Ho Chi Minh City yet after 12 years of construction.
Not that I can really point fingers, the Copenhagen metro began planning in '90, construction in like the mid 90's and the first line wasn't done until 2002 after something like a doubling of the budget and years of delays.
