Vietnam fun

Wanted to post this for a long time, but was pre-occupied with nonsensical stuffs.

I went to Vietnam recently for work, and had a chance to experience Vietnam briefly, here are some highlights which I thought are pretty cute:

1. TV dramas are dubbed to Vietnamese language, but female characters and male characters are both dubbed with a deep male voice. -___- It kills the steam, when the female is a hot babe...

2. The electrical wiring along the roadside is a piece of art, that perhaps only a few modern artists could appreciate.

3. The motorcyclist helmets are damn pretty, forget about the safety perspect -- some are made of cloths.

4. Main road traffic is 100x worse than the traffic in Malaysia -- practically surrounded by motorcyclists.

5. Vietnamese driving skills are superb, because despite having a Lexus or Audi surrounded in the sea of motorcyclists, their car has no scratch marks.

6. The road is more wavy than the river.

7. Health and safety regulations are pretty lose there.

8. I saw some real kick-ass-ly huge factories... in fact the one I went took me more than 30 mins walk (quick walk) from one end to the center road in the factory, and is considered small factory.

9. Regretted for not able to try some local Vietnam food.

10. Vietnam's economic is amazingly lively.
