Visit Hanoi

I went on a Hanoi City Tour today. Below are some pictures.

Front of Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum

Had to queue to enter Ho Chi Minh’s mausoleum. Ho Chi Minh is regarded as the man who brought “freedom” to Vietnam. As I was standing in the line, a soldier came over telling me to not put my hands in my pockets, stand straight in the line, and face forward. What “freedom” fighter? Even in his death, he seemed able to use the army to deny me my freedom!

Minggu ini di Hanoi

Saya tiba di Hanoi pagi tadi, sekitar jam 8.45 pagi. Sepanjang minggu ini saya berada di sini untuk kursus yang dianjurkan oleh British Council Vietnam mengenai keusahawanan sosial.

Selepas tamat sesi petang tadi, sempat juga saya berjalan-jalan sekitar bandaraya Hanoi. Sibuk sekali! Motosikal memenuhi jalan dan nampaknya jalanraya di sini seolah-olah tiada peraturan.

Sekiranya berkesempatan, besok saya akan cuba melawat Museum of Vietnamese Revolution.

Fall of Berlin Wall

(I have not been able to update this blog for a few weeks because of the difficulty I had with my internet provider. But hopefully things have been resolved now.)

9 November 2009 is the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. My article (in Bahasa) on it has been published by the Malayian Insider and be accessed on www.AkademiMerdeka.org here.

Do also watch the video interview with Sacha Tamm here.
