“Can Tho gao trang nuoc trong” (Can Tho is characterised by white rice, clear water). This saying more or less tells of the richness endowed by nature on Can Tho called “Tay Do” (western city), namely the capital of Western Cochinchine. Nowadays, in addition to its natural and cultural potentials bearing deep imprints of Cochinchine crisscrossed with rivers and canals, Can Tho vigorously steps up its economic development in various forms, becoming a large economic and industrial hub, linking with the Mekong River delta provinces in many aspects.
