I think it's part of the culture. Food stalls are fun and one of my favourite things in Viet Nam. But as you mentioned, sometimes pedestrians have to walk along the gutter which causes traffic jams.
However, food stalls are very convenient because they taste good and are cheaper than restaurants.
So I think the Ha Noi People's Committee's idea to establish some controls is a good one. But I think the fees should be set higher than the current rates and there should be stricter regulations.
As for motorbike parking on pavements, I can't accept it. This usually causes traffic jams and is dangerous for pedestrians.
My home town Tokyo has similar problem. There are fewer cars there than in Viet Nam, but there is still not enough road parking for cars. So authorities have tried to think of parking alternatives, such as underground parking and above-ground garages. The government also encourages people to use public transportation, which the Vietnamese Government should also do. Improvements to the transportation system and infrastructure should also be made as soon as possible.
