Question

Since Vietnam population is 83 million. what is HCMC and HANOI population?

Answer 1

Hanoi — Population: 3,145,300 (As of 2005 [1])

HCMC:  6,239,938 (as of 2005)

Answer 2

The Wikipedia answer is a little dated. Wikipedia's numbers are more like the population was in 2000 than in 2005. Current populations for Hanoi and HCMC are close to the following:

Hanoi: 6,000,000

HCMC: 10,000,000

Both cities are growing rapidly with little that can slow it down. The bursting economies in both cities are drawing Vietnamese and foreigners to live there.
