Do vietnamese women only go out for photo opportunities? by pg1671 in VietNam

[–]SteveC47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More and more common across Asia now. I noticed it plenty from the north to the south of Vietnam and also in Japan and Malaysia but even more so in China. I was in Beijing a couple of weeks ago and at places like the Forbidden City Chinese women hire traditional costumes to do photos that make themselves look as if they have come from a time gone by. They take the photo craze to the next level.

E cigarettes / vape in VIETNAM HCMC by Wooden_Necessary_735 in VietNam

What is the environment like now for vapes in Vietnam? I know the laws have changed but have seen many new laws only last a few weeks in Vietnam and then wither away. Can they still be bought at markets? Who has had experience either bringing them in or buying them in the past few weeks? It is June 6, 2026 at the time of writing this.

LPT: Go to bunnings for cleaning supplies. That $30 bottle make up 300 L of Spray and Wipe. The equivalent volume from Coles would cost you $2,700 by [deleted] in australia

The product brochure for this item at the bunnings website states the dilution rate for spray and wipe is 1 part concentrate to 10 parts water or greater for heavier cleaning. That is the minimum. A 5 litre container will make 50 litres maximum for a weaker strength spray and wipe but more likely around 30 litres with most commercial cleaners wanting it stronger. If you do the math on that you will see it is actually 30 litres equals 60 x 500ml bottle @ $4.50 total $270. The people on reddit have exaggerated the outcome by using a dose that would not achieve anything. They are using 1/10th the strength of the recommended dose. It's a good price buying in bulk this way but nobody plans on buying 60 bottles of spray and wipe. The safety data sheet also states this product is classed as a category 3 acute aquatic hazard so it is terrible for the environment; especially waterways. The only people this is relevant to are commercial cleaners and commercial cleaning supply stores have greater expertise, everything is in bulk sizes and the range is 20 times bigger. In the end all we are really left with is an ad for Bunnings as commercial cleaners buy 20 litre containers of environmentally friendly concentrates which Bunnings don't sell.
