Spreading ashes by MarkinNam
Hi all, a really morbid subject but need to ask. When I finally kick the bucket can someone take my ashes back to Việt Nam to scatter. I realise my remains will end up back in Australia to be cremated but no where here I'd like them scattered. ...

Long Thanh Airport by Silverado84
Does anyone know when flights are being routed to this new airport? It's going to be a long commute from Long Thanh into HCMC with the traffic congestion and all. Hope they got decent rest stops along the way.
