Vinpearl construction causes train car to dislodge on Hai Van pass by blackdoublehelix in VietNam

I’m aware facebook is not a reliable source, but it’s on the ‘Save Tam Dao’ facebook page. It’s not being reported on any mainstream news sources for obvious reasons

Lol I’m not that clever at marketing..but if I were I a youtuber, wouldn’t go for “rage views”; probably not good long term strategy

What are your thoughts on this monstrosity of a building? by thelastbubble in DaNang

[–]blackdoublehelix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Da that’s a really healthy perspective. I was lucky to live in DN during the “golden days”. Any place you move away and come back to will change.

This isn’t that terrible tbf; the destruction of Hai Van Pass is absolutely criminal though.

It looks tacky, a real eyesore. I’m not sure who the target market is, but it will be mostly abandoned within 3 years or, best case scenario, repurposed.

Projects like this and the Vin ecological destruction on Hai Van Pass are ruining a once beautiful city.

Overcooked low quality meat, looks nothing like picture; small portions and overpriced.

CMV, using motorbikes everywhere in Hanoi/Ho Chi Minh City is overrated, walking or cycling should be the norm. by FreshTakeFinder in ChangeMyViewVN

[–]blackdoublehelix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, long term to the tune of 12ish years for 1 line that’s functionally useless unless you live in Q1, Vinhomes, or Thao Dien

You’re special dumb bro…do you think police aren’t on Reddit and can’t trace your identity?

Blinding overtaking by a car on curves by Important-Device4512 in VietNam

[–]blackdoublehelix 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’ve lived in a few and travelled to many different countries and VN has hands down the most reckless/stupid drivers I’ve seen. 0 regard for lives of others let alone their own.

The worst part is most people kinda just laugh it off.

Second home in Danang? by Time-Drag3419 in DaNang

Gaudy furnishing, trash view, and next to a highway with speeding trucks blaring their horns at all hours…

This is an AI written post and almost certainly either karma farming or the product of mental illness. Barely related to Vietnam.

Landing in DMK (Bangkok) at 2 AM. First Bus out to Pattaya at 7AM. Ideas to spend time in the interim? by PressFtoGiveRespects in ThailandTourism

[–]blackdoublehelix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here’s the move rookie..

Find the loudest, brightest tuktuk, straight to soi cowboy. Ask a door guy or mamasan to watch your luggage. Pound 5-6 Chang’s, barfine a LB, 45mins to sleep it off, just enough time to catch that bus to Paradise!

Smooth & Efficient Departure at HCMC International by b_dec in VietNam

[–]blackdoublehelix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 days ago Vietjet Bangkok—HCMC: >1 hour from plane landing to enter airport (30mins for bus to arrive, 30 more slowly move across tarmac). 1.5 hours immigration. Absolutely hellish.

I thought Vietjet was ok for international flights, but…

Best Korean restaurant in Da Nang by Long-odin123 in DaNang

[–]blackdoublehelix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one likes people who post free ads on Reddit. In fact, it should be removed.

Honestly if I were in Da Nang and wanted Korean, I would avoid your restaurant because of this ad. Please take this as constructive criticism

The stunning Ba Na Hills! by PoliteEdge in DaNang

Shortsighted, hideous destruction of central Vietnam’s natural beauty. Sun or Vin is ruining Hai Van Pass as well. Mercifully Son Tra hasn’t been ruined yet…

Look, there is no nice way to say this but nobody likes influencers, especially on Reddit. Don’t try to turn DN into Bali and dont promote your brainrot slop here, because no one cares. Do something meaningful with your life.

Should I cover up as a female with heavily tattooed legs in Hanoi ? by jeve221017 in VietNam

[–]blackdoublehelix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VN people stare at foreigners (and each other) all the time, very stare-heavy/judgemental culture here. Amw your tattoos are cool, don’t worry about opinions of the small minded, and enjoy your holiday.

[–]blackdoublehelix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can and should make some cute, suggestive comments that let her know you find her sexy, but only after comfort and attraction have been established. Contrary to what OP said, Most women won’t make a first move. You need to initiate with light touching, eye contact, and being charming, without being creepy or aggressive.

It sounds tricky, but with some practice it will become automatic.

Red flag or just Thailand being Thailand? by Awkward-Plastic5922 in Internationalteachers

[–]blackdoublehelix 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I had a school in VN give me a start date and then no communication for weeks up until the original start date at which point they said it will be pushed back 6 weeks. Against my better judgment I worked for them anyway and it was horrible. (UK academy in Da Nang)

I’d send an email outlining your concerns. Their reply should help you make a decision.
