Vinh expats

Dunno, but very odd that I was researching Vinh only an hour ago in relation to the Hi Chi Minh Trail

Matt its amazing how many people think the HCM trail is in Vietnam.

OP here's the Vinh site on the forum, doesn't look like there's a lot of folks up there. Your registered in Nha Trang, plan on moving to Vinh?

Yeah, I once wrote a short consultancy paper for a European organization on the UXO and landmine problems in Vietnam. The recipient questioned me about my findings and said: "But surely if we simply avoid the Ho Chi Minh trail, we will be safe from UXO etc? His concept was that the HCMT was like a foot path, or cycle path.  when I told him that the HCMT ws 100km wide in places he said: "Surely not" and "Are you sure?" 

Yeah not many expats reside in Vinh, it's been rated as the worst city in Viet Nam for expats and tourists.

There are, but dunno where they are  ;-))
