Hi Soochernyee,

I lived in Bien Hoa City for years, and the dioxin issue is not so serious as you think. Just keep in mind that you dont live near the hot-spot areas (airbase - Tan Phong ward and Trung Dung ward), and dont buy untrusted food in the market. The better places for living are in the center area near Bien Hoa market and Tan Mai - Tam Hiep wards. For foreigners, the best food to obtain is from the supermarkets (Big C, Metro, Coopmart).

Hope this is helpful for you.

Cheers,

Migious.
