After Tet, the prices of vegetables and foodstuffs rise higher than normal. Several markets in the city are selling them at higher prices due to low supply since traders and vegetable growers have not resumed full-fledged activities yet. The prices of seafood have also increased about 20%.
Many fishing boats have only recently gone out to sea after the New Year and have yet to return, meaning supply is relatively low. Prices are expected to stabilise soon.
