  • Air America in South Vietnam I – from the Days of CAT to 1969
    Air America in South Vietnam I From the days of CAT to 1969 by Dr. Joe F. Leeker First published on 11 August 2008, last updated on 24 August 2015 I) At the times of CAT Since early 1951, a CAT C-47, mostly flown by James B. McGovern, was permanently based at Saigon1 to transport supplies within Vietnam for the US Special Technical and Economic Mission, and during the early fifties, American military and economic assistance to Indochina even increased. “In the fall of 1951, CAT did obtain a contract to fly in support of the Economic Aid Mission in FIC [= French Indochina]. McGovern was assigned to this duty from September 1951 to April 1953. He flew a C-47 (B-813 in the beginning) throughout FIC: Saigon, Hanoi, Phnom Penh, Vientiane, Nhatrang, Haiphong, etc., averaging about 75 hours a month. This was almost entirely overt flying.”2 CAT’s next operations in Vietnam were Squaw I and Squaw II, the missions flown out of Hanoi in support of the French garrison at Dien Bien Phu in 1953/4, using USAF C-119s painted in the colors of the French Air Force; but they are described in the file “Working in Remote Countries: CAT in New Zealand, Thailand-Burma, French Indochina, Guatemala, and Indonesia”. Between mid-May and mid-August 54, the CAT C-119s continued dropping supplies to isolated French outposts and landed loads throughout Vietnam. When the Communists incited riots throughout the country, CAT flew ammunition and other supplies from Hanoi to Saigon, and brought in tear gas from Okinawa in August.3 Between 12 and 14 June 54, CAT captain

  • Introduction to Nha Trang, Vietnam Nestled Below
    Introduction to Nha Trang, Vietnam Nestled below the bottom lip of the Cai River, some 260 km north of Phan Thiet, Nha Trang has earned its place on Vietnam's tourist mainline partly on merit and partly owing to its location. By the time the Nguyen lords wrested this patch of the country from Champa in the mid-seventeenth century, the intriguing Po Nagar Cham towers had already stood, stacked impressively on a hillside above the Cai, for over seven hundred years. They remain Nha Trang's most famous image, yet it's the coastline that brings tourists flocking: the town boasts the finest municipal beach in Vietnam, scuba-diving courses are available here, and there are plenty of day-trips to outlying islands too. It's worth bearing in mind, however, that the Nha Trang region has a rainy season lasting from November through to early January. Most new arrivals in the city make a beeline for the municipal beach, a grand six- kilometre scythe of soft yellow sand that's only five minutes' stroll east of Cho Dam market. The Pasteur Institute at the top of Tran Phu, the main drag running parallel to the beach, houses the Alexandre Yersin Museum (Mon–Sat 8–11am & 2–4.30pm; $1.80), which profiles the life of the Swiss-French scientist who settled in Nha Trang in 1893 and became a local hero, thanks not to his greatest achievement – the discovery of a plague bacillus – but rather because of his educational work in sanitation and agriculture, and his ability to predict typhoons and thus save the lives of fishermen.

  • From Vietnet to Vietnamnet: Ten Years of Electronic Media in Vietnam
    Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy Discussion Paper Series From VietNet to VietNamNet: Ten Years of Electronic Media in Vietnam By Nguyễn Anh Tuấn Sagan Fellow, Shorenstein Center, Fall 2007 Editor‐in‐Chief, VietnamNet and Chairman, VietnamNet Media Group #D-43 © 2008 President and Fellows of Harvard College. All rights reserved. PART ONE: Introduction VietNamNet is Vietnam’s most popular online media outlet. Everyday, four million viewers visit the site, generating 100 million page views. VietNamNet’s readership is diverse, including Vietnam’s political and intellectual elites as well as students, workers, farmers, and especially the emerging middle class. VietNamNet is also one of the country’s most respected news publications. Although private news outlets are not yet legal—all newspapers are controlled by state organizations—the Vietnamese press is increasingly vibrant and politically influential. VietNamNet has been at the forefront of this emergence. VietNamNet has played an important role in reporting on some of the most consequential political, economic, and social issues. VietNamNet’s “online roundtable” interviews provide a much sought-after venue for Vietnamese officials, Vietnamese and international scholars and commentators, diplomats, and international business leaders to present their views. National hero Vo Nguyen Giap, former Harvard President Larry Summers, and Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer are just some of the individuals who have been interviewed by VietNamNet journalists. In addition to its flagship website, VietNamNet has diversified into a number of related fields. VietNamNet publishes several print publications, including E-Chip. VietNamNet Mobile is Vietnam’s leading provider of value-added services over mobile phones.

  • Vietnam Is Wonderful Destination Vietnam Has Exerted Itself to Be a Favorite Destination of More and More Tourists
    Vietnam is Wonderful Destination Vietnam has exerted itself to be a favorite destination of more and more tourists. There’s a Hanoi elegant with friendly people, a Sapa with colourful-dressed minorities, a Halong Bay with amazing caves listed on UNESCO World Heritage. There’s a Hue romantic with palace and rain, a tranquil Hoi An where you can have clothes made in one day, a Danang dynamic by Han river. There’s a Nha Trang with best bays of the world, a Saigon busy and modern like Newyork, a Mekong-delta with fascinating floating market. The North, Centre, and South of Vietnam all bear a deep cultural trace, which remains in tourists’ memories for years. Lying on the east of Indochina Peninsula with a distance of 1650 km from south to north, Vietnam is one of the most romantic and naturally beautiful destinations in the world. The diverse natural environment, geography, history, and culture have created a great potential for the tourism, that is wonderful destination for tourists. Moreover, foreign tourists can get Vietnam visa on arrival online easily. 1. Ha Long Bay - Quang Ninh Looking down from above, Ha Long Bay as a huge picture of hydraulic wear extremely lively. Thousands of islands bobbing on the waves of shimmering, both boast spectacular but also very soft and graceful and lively. To take the boat in the middle Ha Long Bay with thousands of islands, seemingly lost in a fairy world was petrified. The island is like someone is looking to land - The First Island; island is like a dragon hovering above the water - Hon Rong; island is like a old man sitting fishing - Hon La Vong; and the other two beefy brown sails are turning out to sea waves.
