Hey Everyone,
Not entirely sure how this site works but thought I'd give it a go.
I'm a 23 year old female from New Zealand (whose family are of Vietnamese descent - I can speak Vietnamese alright).
Born and bred in New Zealand, so I'm a Kiwi.
I've just got an internship in Binh Duong which starts next month and I was just wondering what tips everyone might have in terms of things I should pack and any other tips that I might find useful?
Also, would be nice to network and meet some other friendly expats 
Cheers!
Any tips before my move over from New Zealand?

Bring all your 'documentation (school certificates, licences, etc).
If you are of VN decent, get all the information from your parents as to where they lived (precisely), how they departed VN (exit permit number, etc) and then reclaim VN citizenship.
Citizenship has it's benefits! Not many downsides for females, either.

Thank you Jaitch. I'll see, not sure if I will bring my official school certificates but I'll make sure I scan all the important stuff through to myself before I go! How long you been there now?
