FDI has constructively and positively contributed to the development of Vietnam in many ways. The popularity of the motorcycle industry has come from the great demand for motorcycles in the Vietnamese market and the government's policy of promoting and attracting foreign investment.

However, as the living standard is being developed day by day, the images of the wide, broad streets on which people rode their bicycles sparsely are no longer existed nowadays. That is the reason why Miles Walker (2007), who founded New Asian Values for the 21st Century, wrote an article: "The Streets of Vietnam - a Fatality Every 45 Minutes" to criticize most of the cities in Vietnam for being "uncontrolled traffic hellholes" and to give 3 main resolutions to tackle this problem. Although his measures are fine to some extent, they are not totally reasonable to eradicate the carnages caused by traffic. This essay will respond to his 3 solutions and give sufficient arguments.…

Emission levels vary with travel behaviour which is dependent on city size, structure and mode choice available. In Indian cities, a large proportion of population lives in slums, for example in Mumbai percentage of population living in slums is 54.1%, Kolkata 32.5% and in Delhi it is 18.7% (Census of India, 2001). There is a significant proportion of people who cannot afford personal motorized vehicles (cars and two-wheelers) for transportation and subsidized bus systems are also too expensive for them for daily commute (Mohan and Tiwari, 2000).
