I have really liked living in the Ha Long area of Vietnam but the laws &
regulations are getting to me. The government here apparently really
doesn't seem to care about 'X-Pats' except the money we spend here.
They seem to make everything from banking to marriage as difficult as
possible.
I have not found that true in Cambodia or Malaysia. Both these places
seem to realize the value of 'X-Pats' presents & spending, so I've decided
to move out of Vietnam, but with some regrets.
The people here, with very few exceptions, have been wonderful. It is
only the government that is driving I and others to seek a retirement
home elsewhere.
