Hello Vietnam!

I studied Basic Conversational Vietnamese during my NUS days which was at least 10 yrs ago...I can only remember "Chi Que Kong? (How are you?)" and "Toi La.... (I am...)". haha.. I had wanted to visit this country to feel its culture...finally had the chance in Jan 09 to travel to Ho Chi Minh (Saigon) & Hanoi (capital of Vietnam)...

Experiencing the life of Vietnamese on a sampan...rather shaky... wearing their iconic bamboo hat 斗笠 did help to protect against the sunlight..


World No. 1 in the number of Motorbikes... causing noise & air pollution in the urban areas...

Most of the pple there are Buddhists... and worshippers of GuanYin



Costumes - 'ao dai' worn by Child Performers in a village


Went to an ancient battlesite where we tried shooting....using real bullets...



I was so so shocked by the loud explosive sound when i fired...can feel the ground shaking too...what an experience...
