Hey Everyone, Just curious to know what everyone drinks for filtered water...we're currently drinking Sapuwa, but heard from a friend that he has gotten stomach issues from drinking it. So far we haven't had any problems, but are just wondering if ...
Good to feed the pangasius :). Can't get more organic and ecological food than this! Read More

No, it is back in the old country. The house has an separate internal greywater piping system which is eventually connected to the sewage system. The need for this separation is due to a particular constraint in my house construction. Waste ... Read More

The tap water in HCMC, even though better than Hanoi, is alarmingly unhealthy affecting millions of city dwellers, according to city officials. It is distressing since those guys are not known to admit to anything bad. See quote from an article just ... Read More
Moving To Saigon & Have A Few Questions by Scotsman84
So I'm seriously considering a move to Saigon. Have been living in Bangkok for the past year but they've tightened up the visa situation so it's time to move on. I'm a UK citizen, under 30, and have funds from abroad if it matters ...

From what I have seen, they are as widely practiced in Vietnam as in Thailand. In both countries, they are not practiced among traditional, educated people, but among the nouveau riche, cadres who get rich because of bribery: the Vietnamese, learnt ... Read More

No problem. Ask any Vietnamese (men especially) and they will tell you right away what they mean :-), as those are commonly used slangs, just like their corresponding Thai terms. Read More
