Tyler, so today you are visiting New Port (Tan Cang) Tan is New & Cang is Port hence New Port. Saigon Metro looks okay; it is not wow or ecstatic at all .... By the way it is called dong qua or dong nget or nguoi chat cung or nguoi dong nhu kien or nguoi chat cung nhu ca hop (people packed like sardine on the car. (It is not dong duc or dong duc qua. Those words aren't use in this case or in this situation.Those words are North Vietnam words and language which is improper Vietnamese language). Those words are proper and correct South Vietnam language. It is pretty sad that you and Trang have been speaking improper Vietnamese language. But no worries because the smarty pants North Vietnam charlatans have twisted the proper South Vietnam proper language ever since after April 30th of 1975. Those unwelcome and not wanting the Hanoi North Vietnamese invaders occupy Saigon South Vietnam . Tyler, stop in Spanish is Alto... Uh, one more thing, Tyler, can you please tell Trang that the word combo in South Vietnamese language is (bao gom, gom co, co tat ca la, gom co la, gom co ba bon thu gi do v.v... etc, etc...). I was hoping Trang was with you on this trip exploring New Port Saigon Metro...!!!

Aloha, Tyler, crowded is dong-qua... Tyler, please dont say "xin chao" its improper Vietnamese language. Just say Chao like Ciao and Chao is Hello just one word. It likes Ciao in Italian. It pronounce exactly the same in pronunciation. Only a bit different in spelling though. The word (xin) mean beg or asking, therefore if you're saying sorry to someone then you say Xin Loi... I'm sorry or I'm so sorry or like in English we say I beg your pardon etc, etc,.. For instant chao Ong, chao Ba, chao co, chao chu, chao cau, chao em (and chao em you should say to Trang everday), chao anh, chao chi, chao em, chao con, chao chau and chao moi nguoi or tong chao etc, etc,... By the way, how are you two gorgeous people doing... Anyway, Trang speaking Vietnamese pretty well. I love and like Trang tone of voicee. Her tone and accent sound pretty sexy, very attractive and very soothing due to her regional Phan-Rang or Ninh-Thuan or Binh-Thuan or Hue dialect, accent and pronunciation i.e.. It called Central Region South Vietnam or just simply Mien-Trung... an ancient Capital City of Vietnam from Central Highland South Vietnam; and it called Cao-Nguyen Trung-Phan - Nam Vietnam that is. I really like and love her Hue accent though. No worries Trang your Vietnamese language is very good even though it isn't your fall to be honest and her English is beyond my imagination. I love it when Trang speaks with Hue accent to you on you guys video. Trang is very talented and skillful and don't feel bad Tyler and Trang. It's not you guys fall and Tyler your ability to speak Vietnamese is good keep practicing "Practice makes perfect".; so be persist in it. (HTNJUY26 - MonJan20th2025).

I was in Saigon in September and found that I got sick almost immediately. The smog is horrible. I also found the bike transport too small; I'm over 6' tall and need more weight lifting to get my tone back. But the "motorcycles" are not big enough for my legs and weight, which will still overload the suspension on one of these little bikes once it's where I want. From your video, I have been in that area, and you had a tame day with little traffic. My brother-in-law says the three-wheeled bikes are illegal. I would bring my motorcycle whenever I retire to Vietnam; it has the least legroom and can go to highways at speeds that scooters can not. You should be able to record when the scooter drivers drive through the red lights. I found many of the intersections in Saigon have cameras because impatient riders will ride into the intersection and filter between the traffic to continue on. Also, based on Vietnamese law, you cannot marry your GF as you were not born Vietnamese. I hope that, as Vietnam integrates more rapid transit, they can move away from scooters; this is the thinking in Hanoi. However, with the convenience of navigating the smaller streets in many major cities, I do not think the scooters will disappear. Even should the government impose restrictions, such as limiting them from intersections. I say this because while I was in Vietnam, I asked about the helmet law and was told by many night bus drivers that the government tried to enforce the helmet law, but there were so many violators they gave up. So eventually, the number of people will outweigh the governmental controls, and Vietnam will probably migrate to being a Democratic Country.
