ABSTRACT
In 1989, Khanh Hoa province underwent restructuring to facilitate the full utilization of the region's potential. Despite initial hurdles during the renovation period, the urbanization of Nha Trang city progressed dynamically, spurred by the positive effects of renovation policies, industrialization, and modernization efforts. Transitioning from a type III urban area, by 1999, Nha Trang had advanced to a type II urban area. Industries and services took precedence in the economic landscape, while significant investments were made to upgrade urban infrastructure. Consequently, population density surged, accompanied by gradual enhancements in both the physical and psychological well-being of the populace. Drawing upon information provided by the Khanh Hoa Provincial Statistics Office, the Party Committee of Nha Trang city, and neighborhood administrations, this article employs historical and logical approaches intricately intertwined with analytical, synthetic, and comparative methods. Through this comprehensive framework, the aim is to elucidate the accomplishments and challenges encountered by Nha Trang city throughout its urbanization journey from 1989 to 1999 across various domains.
