Dozens of households in HCM City's District 7 have complained that their homes are being hit by balls from a nearby golf course.
Tan Truong Golf Course
Reports of this problem have come from residents on Nguyen Thi Thap Street. Balls from Tan Truong Golf Course apparently fly over the boundaries and strike houses, causing damage to windows and roofs. One boy was injured from such an incident.
Many families have said that every day, dozens of balls from the golf course strike their houses. Some people have collected baskets of balls that have come onto their property or nearly missed.

The residents have informed both local authorities and the golf course management board of the situation. The golf course has offered some compensation to those affected, but the problem has continued.
Local authorities and the affected households requested the golf course to make a commitment to ensure safety measures to prevent the balls from flying onto private homes.
