Statistical trends and an arbitrary decision process conducted by the General Department across the country mean the 90 millionth citizen is a female infant due to be born at midnight on November 1 at Hanoi’s Central Obstetrics Hospital.
The Central Obstetrics Hospital will host a commemorative ceremony involving Vice State President Nguyen Thi Doan and Health Ministry representatives.
Earlier predictions estimated Vietnam’s population would hit 90 million by mid-October 2013.
