- Student bus fare is 2000 Dong,which is ~50% cheaper than normal fare . To receive student discount , you must present a valid Student Card . The normal fare is 5000 Dong for routes which distance is smaller than 18 km and 6000 Dong for others . TPNamE231 (talk) 12:11, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II NotifyOnline 20:49, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Gauge and speed
1m gauge in Taiwan and Japan goes at 130km/h (faster than the HoChiMinh metro), the Vietnam railways are mainly 1m gauge (unless the Hanoi connection to China). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.108.129.55 (talk) 11:37, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
Map/table in Lines section seems wrong
Requested move 9 April 2026
| It has been proposed in this section that multiple pages be renamed and moved. A bot will list this discussion on the requested moves current discussions subpage within an hour of this tag being placed. The discussion may be closed 7 days after being opened, if consensus has been reached (see the closing instructions).

- HCMC Metro → Ho Chi Minh City Metro
- HCMC Metro Line 1 → Ho Chi Minh City Metro Line 1
- HCMC Metro Line 2 → Ho Chi Minh City Metro Line 2
– Per WP:COMMONNAME, WP:ENGLISH, and WP:UE, a vast majority of English-language sources commonly spell the full name of the city spelt out. The article title was moved a year and a half ago without discussion simply because the name was abbreviated in the logo, which is a very weak justification for a page move. See for examples.

- Support per the nom's sources, my own search, and MOS:ACROTITLE. I did a Google News search for hcmc metro and sources that turn up almost always spell out "Ho Chi Minh City" on first usage. Sources may use "HCMC" as an abbreviation on subsequent usage but "HCMC Metro" is not regularly used as the name. "Metro" is consistently capitalized, especially when referring to the system by name and to individual routes, e.g. "Metro Line 1". Acronyms and abbreviations should only by used in article titles if the long title is likely to be less recognizable to the average readers. That is certainly not the case here. (Side note—I don't actually see a "use English" problem with either title. Both the long and short titles are very much in English. The Vietnamese name is Đường sắt đô thị Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh, which no one is proposing.) —Myceteae🍄🟫 (talk) 16:57, 9 April 2026 (UTC)
