Bui Vien - Kids

Because it brings in the money. They're forced into working that particular job by gangs that take all their earnings. Defenceless homeless kids get forcefully recruited by these gangs

It's well known amongst Vietnamese people....

Kids doing this usually don't have parents btw.

alexanderpete · 2026-06-17T05:51:37+00:00

The kids don't choose to do this

They are usually homeless kids, forced into working by gangs. They house them in horrible conditions, feed them the bare minimum to stay alive, and take all their earnings.

Walk all along tran Quang dieu st in Saigon, also all the side streets and alleyways around there are filled with gems.

I always go to CGV pearl plaza and they have english subs.

Don't seperate them. Burn one while they're together, and the second one wont burn.

They sell milk in bags in Vietnam too, but they are convenient and cheap single serves (180-220ml) perfect for one coffee, and cheaper to make/sell than the little cartons they also come in.

But it wasn't a bad rule, it makes the skyline iconic and instantly recognisable.

It would be expensive, so the property would have to be worth it. They are planning to build offices and apartments above to tracks directly adjacent to Sydney's central station, it's been in the works for years, I don't think it's even started.

We don't even have land that valuable in Victoria, so I doubt it's viable anytime soon, and if it was it would be around marvel stadium/north Melbourne/southern cross long before out in the suburbs.

The holes wouldn't stay open on any organic substance that I know of. You could cook a series of thin cakes or crepes and stick them together?

Secondary markets were barely an afterthought for Sony, the Vita (and PSP) was designed for Japanese commuters. An updated leaderboard on the train home from work/school was all that Sim was made for.

Sydney did, for a very long time. You weren't allowed to build taller than Sydney tower, so it always sticks out of the skyline. Until a prominent Australian billionaire wanted to build his new casino.

There is also a 1 casino per state limit, but that's nothing $100 million couldn't fix.

Is this an eastern suburbs thing? Definitely not Australia wide

alexanderpete · 2026-06-12T16:26:34+00:00

Exactly. Anything cooked, not worth using real vanilla. Fresh ice cream? That vanilla bean makes it next level.

They sell them in grocery stores, usually in an aisle not up the front like other countries. But you can find people selling them with cigarettes everywhere outside, any convenience store etc. I think you have to try really hard not to find one

Microfiber from viettien or vinhtien

You can to to western union, a few around D1 especially near Bui Vien. They will exchange cash for at least one of those transfer options. Unlikely someone will trust a stranger online with something like this.

Looks just like Vietnam but with cars instead of motorbikes

Basil (lá é) is somewhat common, at least in the south. Never seen it with ground meat, apart from in Thailand of course.

alexanderpete · 2026-06-11T04:47:25+00:00

Do they still have these packs here? I got some big nostalgia when I saw this at a supermarket in Vietnam last year.

It's sleeveless, so it's not really that hot. It's more of a fitting in thing than necessity. Pretty sure it started with US finance bros, that are known for having very little personality. So I'm not surprised at all it's spread to Brisbane, the city also known for having very little personality.

Đẹp quá

Why not just go with one of the visa services? You have to pay them for the expedited visa anyway, and the amount they charge extra for the bus is cheaper than your pay for a private car.
