[CITIES XL PLATINUM] New city project "Eternity" (1)-Introduction

Recently, I started new city plan. It is called "Project Eternity". For this city planning, I focused on citizens' life satisfaction. I installed each school, police office, and fire house at the edge of the avenue. And also, I decreased income tax and cooperate tax to boost the civil economy. In result, these strategies lower the external costs and increased citizens' satisfaction.

International Airport is located in the South Western part of the city. The location was considered to reduce the noise pollution as much as I can. Besides the airport, that gray area is a specialized zone for trading companies. About 10000 citizens are working in this area.

This area is like 'Manhattan' for the city. This area is located in the middle of the city. This area is being divided into three sectors. They are Uptown (the northern part), Greenbelt (to reduce sprawl effect) and the downtown (the southern part).

Since many citizens are working for the trading companies, this city is struggling with high traffic congestion (especially in the highway that connects main district and airport). I planned to build five more bus lines and three more metro lines to reduce the traffic issue.

First review on this project

Population: About 1,000,000

Unemployment rate: 5~7%

Main problem: High traffic congestion, which damage commuters

Solution: Build more public transportation, widen the road

[NORMAL DAYS IN KOREA] Review on Jamsil baseball stadium

As an avid Lotte Giants fan, I could not miss an opportunity to watch a match held in Seoul. There was a match between Lotte Giants and Doosan Bears on 23rd June. I had no hesitance to buy a ticket for that. I went to the stadium with my friend, who is a fan of the Doosan Bears. The ticket costs approximately $10.5 per person (weekday fare/The second floor and Infield seats). It was a reasonable price. This is a waiting queue to enter the baseball stadium. I could see many Lotte fans visit here to root for Lotte as I do. Basically, Jamsil Baseball Stadium is a baseball stadium located between the business area and the residential area of Seoul. Thereby Jamsil Stadium always has relatively more fans than those of any other stadiums. Food that I ate in the stadium. Well-grilled Korean BBQ was a nice choice for me during watching a game. This is one of the remarkable rooting chants(?) ever I experienced in my life. This is basically a chant that disturbs...

[School activities] Finalizing gathering of items for the flea market&raffles

Spring carnival will be held by tomorrow! Members of the flea market team have collected all boxes(items) from Kindergarten to Grade 12. And we priced on every single item. Even today, many students/teachers and staffs hand us their items. It was a calories-burning exercise for us to collect all of the items but it was fun! Some items were brand-new or seemed very fancy. So we gathered them into another group and put them into the main office. By 21st April 2017, we will sell items in the flea market and provide items for the raffle so I want as many people to come and join the event.

[After school activities] Checking water quality of water ecosystems in Hanoi

With the Environment Club CCP group, I went to several water ecosystems in Hanoi to check the water quality and how it's related with locals' life. The first one is 'To Lich' river. This river usually called as 'Toilet river' by foreigners who live in Hanoi. We could easily observe that the polluted water from sewages directly flowed to the river, which is serious point pollution. To get better result, I took 1 litre of water from the river. The smell of the river was very stinky and I could observe the air (bubble) being popped in the river. I think To Lich river is highly toxic. The second one is Ngoc Khanh lake. It is near to my school and the civil government had huge project to clean the ecosystem of Ngoc Khanh lake. They took off all of the water in the lake and cleaned the lakebed. After the cleaning, they put lake water back. In result, this lake became so much cleaner than the past times. Our CCP also took a liter of wat...
