Chaos and calm on the roads of HCMC
=======================================

What more can be said about Ho Chi Minh City traffic and driving behavior that has not already been said?


From a westerner’s point of view, motorcyclists often do what seem like the silliest of things: cutting directly in front of turning cars and buses; so on, and so on.

But on closer observation and reflection, there can sometimes be a gracefulness (and graciousness) underlying what at first looks to be slow-motion anarchy.

Miraculously, rarely does anyone actually strike another vehicle. Somehow, most riders and drivers instinctively know the precise millisecond to back off and give way to another.

Impressively, almost everyone keeps moving forward all the time, however slowly. Rarely is a fist shaken or a blow exchanged, despite what can look like the most exasperating of driving conditions that would lead to severe “road rage” in many other countries.

So this is the paradox, to me, as a foreigner living with HCMC traffic. As the traffic volumes continually increase, as the proportion of cars on the road grow (well beyond the capacity of the infrastructure to support them), as the pollution and noise and general chaos seem to get ever worse, the people who use the roads mostly remain serene and devoid of any obvious frustration.

This impresses me as a foreigner living in HCMC, and I have come to realize that although on one level these are just some observations about traffic and driving behavior, on another level they may provide fascinating clues into the Vietnamese psyche – into a culture that has seen so much and learned to deal with so many hardships and hurdles with good grace and patience, and still keep finding a way forward at all times.

I talk to Vietnamese friends about the traffic and whether it’s ever going to get any better, and interestingly most seem resigned to accepting that traffic conditions never seem to improve much overall.

New roads and bridges get built, but the road works associated with them seem interminable and for whatever reason the various different works are not properly coordinated to minimize disturbance to motorists.

Then at the end of it all people see that the work was not done properly anyway and so the “finished” road or bridge does not quite do the job it was designed to do.

The new road or bridge does not include a footpath allowing for safe pedestrian access.

Or a road does not provide any safe turning area for a kilometer or more, forcing motorists to drive much further than they want before they can turn around and come back to the location they want to reach.

So much waste of fuel and time, so much extra pollution that could be avoided.

But while this kind of thing can frustrate foreigners, I don’t see much sign of it frustrating my Vietnamese friends and colleagues. They accept these things as facts of life.

One day I hope the people of HCMC and Hanoi will get the advanced public transport systems that great modern cities deserve in the 21st century, releasing much of this traffic pressure.

But in the meantime I know my Vietnamese friends and colleagues will continue to deal with the realities of relentless traffic chaos and disruption with enormous patience and good grace – and a serene confidence that they will somehow always reach their destination safely each time.

Do you know that what I am afraid of is someone says (he) loves me. Because a lot of people lie with me so I scare. Time will answer (your questions).

Em hieu. that su em rat thich anh khi nao anh can em em se den ben anh ok

I understand. It is true that I really like you. When you need me, I will be by your side.

Khi nao anh can den em anh dt cho em ok. chuc anh luon luon vui ve

When you need me, you call me, ok? wish you always happy.

Hi bro Kang Tuo ,

Thanks for the translation....
Vdict is not as good as i used before its still unable to translate more than 60% of the words i pasted on it..

Do vietnamese gals of age 24 reallly like their bf to be more romantic and know what they think , make them happy.. cos i have difficulty guessing which word my gf say if its really real or just words on mouth heart not the same..cos got a time she angry me not quarrel as its on her one sided angry and say only want to meet me 1 time in a week ,as she still angry i just say ok ( dun want to argue or begged her, scared she think i too sticky).. but turn out she wanted mi to say why can only meet 1 time (something like the opp of what i did) and from then she started saying i am boring guy , dunno gals' heart.. MY ex (also viet) one turns out to be quite opp to her , say what she mean and dun like me to b so sticky ...

I just think my experience in dealing with vietnamese gals is not enough...
