- The Trump Organization is conducting site surveys in Ho Chi Minh City for a proposed Trump Tower skyscraper, though the project remains in its early stages without formal approval.
- Ho Chi Minh City officials have been invited to meet with Eric Trump and attend a dinner on Thursday to discuss the skyscraper project and potential collaboration.
- Vietnamese authorities recently approved the northern resort project, which includes golf courses, hotels, and residential developments, marking a significant investment by the Trump Organization.
