Vietnam Friendilier to Foreign Tourists :-)

Thursday, September 13, 2007 By kevmille

Some very interesting news from ThanhNienNews.com today. The Vietnamese government is thinking about ending the restrictions which forced HCMC restaurants, discos, nightclubs, coffee shops and karaoke bars to close at midnight. This is definitely a positive sign the Vietnamese government is sending to Westerners in particular here in Saigon. Most of the good night clubs close too early for many Western expats and tourists forcing them to visit the lower quality Pham Ngu Lao Backpacker clubs. If this regulation is ended, I can Saigon transitioning to a 24 hour Western city in a relative short time.

In the same article, HCMC officials also asked the Vietnamese government to waive tourist visas for some countries such as Australia, France, Germany and the US as a means to promote tourism in Vietnam. Another positive sign for Vietnam.

Look out China, Vietnam is now becoming a full-grown Tiger…

    I hope they stop the silliness in Hanoi too; they’ve been doing it on and off for years.

    I will be glad to see the visa requirement lifted. I will be back there in about a year to visit Trang’s family. Ever since my first visit to VN I have had a temporary resident card which meant I don’t need a visa and I don’t have to stand in the long line at immigration and customs at the airport. I just blow on through. It was great to be able to get out of the airport fast after such a long flight. But my temporary resident card expired recently.

    Did you go through the new airport terminal? How was it? Faster I hope. With a larger baggage claim area. The old one is such a zoo!
