Unauthorised fees plague Vietnam’s bus terminals
Transport enterprises are concerned about fees that they have to pay for their operations at bus stations.
A driver of a transport enterprise operating on the Ha Noi-Thai Nguyen route, who decline to give his name, said besides fixed fees like entrance fee and parking fee, enterprises have to pay more fees such as VND10,000 (40 cents) for the stations’ guards whenever they depart the stations and commissions that station officials take from every fare.
Despite the fact that they are not very expensive, these fees burden the enterprises’ expenses, he said.
