Just a small reminder to all of us expats. I think most of us get lulled into a false sense of being safe here. Then too some of us get hot under the collar with locals. But the other night two young men took a sickle to an older man and cut off both his legs. The victim bled out in the street and died. Over an argument no less. A couple of months ago the same thing happened to a young man. That time it was two with machetes. I could relate many such stories. But when they happen I am always shocked back into reality. And it always makes me wonder.....do other expats realize these things go on often. At any rate, be careful, hold your tongue, especially in markets. And enjoy your time in wonderful Vietnam.
