Limits for the maximum allowed noise by Budman1
The link below provides information on the maximum allowable noise in certain areas, is it enforceable? http://www.monre.gov.vn/v35/default.aspx?tabid=428&CateID=24&ID=93650&Code=BHVKQ93650 We live far outside the city in a small rural farming ...
Happened to me in Benh Thanh district in Saigon. Police told me I can move and left without another word. So I moved to District 7 and never looked back. I guess I could have bribed them to do their job but that just perpetuates the corruption. Read More
Any mountain bike cyclist/cycling club/forum here in Saigon? by Joy Bikerz
Hi I love mountain biking and just arrived here 2 months plus back. Is there anyone who cycles mountain bike here in HCMC?
Look up Phattireventures.com in Da Lat, founded by an American. Many outdoor excursions. Plenty of single track and a long downhill track from Da Lat to the coast. They provide bikes if needed. They are also familiar with a trail rider's club in ... Read More
Registering with Police by Fordy7
In the 3 years I have been here. I have lived in several places. I have always paid a fee to Police when I move to an area with registering that I am there. I did the same in the place I am in now and I have been here for 18 months. It has always ...
I've lived here since 2006 and moved 5 times until I found my preferred environment. I never dealt directly with any police. The landlord deals with them. This is the landlords problem, not mine. It's highly likely the police are getting paid by ... Read More

The website you mentioned says it promotes escort girls for hire to do anything, "with private massage service or whatever else you fancy..." are stong innuendos. You don't even have to read between the lines. The promoting of girls for a quiet ... Read More

hi, i am currently doing business in ho chi minh city and would like to employ a part time translator. i usually travel to hcmc twice a month and would expect the translator to be available for the 2 or 3 days that i will be there. anyone who's ...
I'm sure you can find translators for much cheaper than MargaretLuu. $30 an hour is way out of line for most any translation work. I would think $6 to $8 an hour is even on the high side. Are you looking for someone with a specific knowledge of your ... Read More

Sure, we can maybe connect at the pool hall. Also, another great place to meet for beer is the Czech style micro-brewery in District 1 named Hao Vien. One of the few place that don't automatically place a huge cube of ice in your beer glass. They ... Read More

Rugby? What's Rugby??? Oh, that's the game that makes our American football look like a sissy's sport. Rugby is even tough to watch as a spectator sport. You only need to visit the open air streets in the backpack area to meet many like-minded ... Read More
Biking in HCM? by ssava
I am an avid road and mountain biker here in the US and moving to HCM in June. Anyone have any information on opportunites to at least mountain bike in the area? Sounds like riding in the city itself would be suicide! Any info would greatly be ...
Maybe not so much on high-end bikes but NEVER take chances. I've had small parts like handpumps stolen and the odd accessory. Always by security guards. They are the lowest paid and the most likely to steal and run and never to be seen again. I've ... Read More
