Good Morning, Vietnam







I will be heading of to Vietnam today for my family vacation and will only be back on 21st Dec. And this trip reminds me of the 1987 movie by Robin Williams that talk about the Americans battling out the Vietnam war. I will be visiting Hanoi which will be cooling (in terms of climate) during this time of the year, and will then fly down south to HCM city aka Saigon which will be hot, humid and sticky.

But today Vietnam is a fast and upcoming developing country, where they are very prosperous and maybe to a certain extent ~ advanced in certain things that they are doing. Vietnam will be the next country that we should watch out for within this region. It will be another Asian Tiger that will come out from the cave. This trip will definitely be an eye-opener for myself and my family.

Take care everyone......
