With long-term enthusiasm for the city and three months of competition to show, the Sasaki – enCity team developed a planning proposal based on the idea of ​​​​building a new highly interactive and innovative district at the east of Ho Chi Minh City (now known as Thu Duc City). In the proposal, Sasaki and enCity suggested that Thu Duc City could utilise the model of “Future Hub Living Lab”, which supports innovative start-ups and encourages community participation.
