Nghia Tan apartment complex (Nghia Do ward) is one of the old apartment complexes in Hanoi built in 1987 with nearly 30 apartment buildings from 3 to 5 floors high, with an average apartment area of 18 to 20 m2. After a long time of use, many items in Nghia Tan apartment complex have seriously degraded.

According to records, Nghia Tan apartment complex with about 6,000 residents has been expanded to a "tiger cage" in recent times, posing a potential risk of fire safety.

Sharing with Lao Dong, Ms. Tran Thi Tam (resident living in Nghia Tan apartment complex, the character has been renamed) - said that she was very worried when living in a dilapidated apartment complex. According to Ms. Tam, many households here have expanded their residential area into "tiger cages", so the whole building seems to have only one escape route, which is the mountain stairs. However, many areas have become places for motorbike parking, posing a potential risk of insecurity in the event of fire and explosion.

Khu thang bo xuong cap, am thap tro thanh loi thoat hiem nhat.

The degraded, damp mountain stairs have become the only escape route.

Although there are signs prohibiting vehicles from stopping and parking, motorbikes are still parked in many areas.
