History
[edit]Before 1975, Lái Thiêu used to be a rich land with many features such as tourism to Ngang Bridge (Cầu Ngang) and Bình Nhâm fruit gardens, traditional craft villages, lacquer crafts, glass paintings, clogs, crockery, porcelain, etc. Lái Thiêu area is now Thuận An area with 11 communes of Tân Thới (Lái Thiêu ward nowadays), Phú Long, Vĩnh Phú, Bình Nhâm, Bình Hòa, Hưng Định, An Thạnh (Búng), An Sơn, Bình Chuẩn, Thuận Giao and An Phú. After 1975, Thuận Giao and An Phú areas were planned to be built in the direction of an industrial park where many people from other places come to live and work, so the name Thuận An is a combination of Thuận Giao and An Phú to replace Lái Thiêu.
After that, Lái Thiêu was named for the downtown of Thuận An district (formerly known as Tân Thới) and now is the central ward of the city of Thuận An.
