Perry Levin

Western Union is too expensive. I have a Wells Fargo account and set up transfers with my fiance in Viet Nam to Vietin bank. It was a $5 fee in the US for any amount and she received USD at her bank without paying any fees. Very fast, maybe 1 day. Read More

Moving to the US - Shipping our stuff by cpt_mosc

Hi everyone. My wife and I are moving from HCMC to the US (Connecticut) in a few month so we're looking for a shipping company that could take care of our stuff. In fact, the real question is to decide whether we ship things or whether we just pack ...

Perry Levin

Unless you safely lock the shipment without anyone else having access, I would skip the local shipping company. When you get to Connecticut and discover missing items it would be too late to get anything from the Vietnamese company. Same with the ... Read More

A victim in love deception by bluesky1988

I cannot understand why people like to deceive each other. I was a victim in love and got through such sorrows and hurt that I always felt the world would tumble right on my feet. But I still believe somewhere someone is honest.

Motorbike Mugging in HCMC by Julian09

Despite any stories, not to mention common sense, one of our friends was just robbed Saturday night/Sunday am after leaving O'Brien's Pub. He proceeded to ignore common safety advice and left the pub after having too many beers, and then showed a ...

Perry Levin

Sure would be great if there were different stories concerning motorbike muggings so people would be made aware of what to watch out for. If you wish to engage in petty bickering I would suggest you go to the petty bickering thread. Read More

Big Mac is a comin to HCMC by bta87

For all you McDonald's lovers they are building a new store in HMC. It is on the Hanoi Highway not far from the Lotteria. It is at the circle that has the clock in the center.

Perry Levin

I don't know if you have heard about the labor problems McDonald's has been having here in the US. Workers have been going on strike for higher pay. To try to calm the employees management has been telling them very strange things. The latest to ... Read More
