VIETNAM TRAVEL-TRIP #8
Y2K (JAN-MAY 2000)
Chronicle | EMail To President Click To Tour The Whitehouse East In Vietnam

TOM and Nhieu's sister, Chi Hai (LÊ), flew to Ho Chi Minh City (HCM) Saigon via Seoul (SEL), Korea on Asiana Airlines. Our travel (tickets, visas, airport assistance at SFO and Tan Son Nhut Airport in Saigon were provided by VMC Travel Services in Oakland and Vietnam. We returned in May after extending our visitors visas; TOM in Tien Giang Province and LÉ in Tay Ninh Province.

We were met at the airport in Saigon by a busload of Vietnamese relatives and friends and then drove to GoCong, Tien Giang Province in the Mekong Delta. The purpose this trip was to survey Premo Foundation business/internet objectives and to spend the Vietnamese New Year/ TET in the Whitehouse East, our home in Vietnam. Tom also worked on the his Rose Garden with the help of some Vietnamese friends, including Minh Dinh and Minh Chau, Doctor of Flowers. Click here to see a picture of the Rose Garden - South Patio

Communication in Vietnam has been difficult as Tom speaks a little Vietnamese but the Whitehouse East staff and relatives speak NO English. However, the Go Cong high school English teacher, Mr. Hai, lives only a few blocks up the street from the Whitehouse East and provided translation assistance when necessary. Tom also met several English speaking Vietnamese during this trip, including 4 teachers, 3 doctors and others, some of who reside in the US, Australia or Europe.
