Oh, you were there!

I'm well aware of what happened in Vietnam...

It is definitely not the place I'd bail to if the bioweapon demons get another scam going!

These two trips were short, and Vietnam was cheap, I'd been there once before only, and also it was at a time when things were really calm.

At a meetup that you might know about in Da Nang a young Vietnamese guy who seemed to know his stuff told me that people were extremely pissed off not only by the harshness, but also that a lot of people at the top made obscene amounts on the whole thing. He claimed that another round would not be possible, people would actually rise up...

I had a relatively good time myself, on tiny, rural roads right outside a large city, going to the river on my motorbike even when everyone were totally insane :-)

And if it all happens again? Better chose the right spot, I myself will not tolerate any of the BS any longer, so gotta be somewhere that I won't be cornered...
