This is an absolute wild story. I live on this district where this mental hospital is. For two years, they had parties and even sound proofed the room for parties. It is pretty unreal that this went on but not surprising here to be honest. They were sentenced to life!

This is an awesome place. Trúc Bạch Lake. Hanoi is surrounded by lakes, there are lakes everywhere. This lake is very famous here because it is the lake that John McCain got shot down in. It is a happening place now with bars, clubs and tons of restaurants. He even came back here to meet the guys that pulled him out of the lake and saved him. I lived on this street for 6 months right when I moved here. Check out what it looks like today as well as the picture of John McCain being rescued out of the lake.

A great place i go to that overlooks the lake now.

Google is not your friend when it comes to this part of the world. Salary and what they actually get paid are two different things.I have a friend who is a Doctor here. On paper he makes $700 a month, in reality 5k a month. Keep in mind, 5k a month here is probably like 15k there, depends the state. Traffic police on paper make $500 a month but make 5k a month.

Patty, if you come here. I will show you stuff not even in movies, there are SEZ's special economic zones. Tons of casinos, illegal wild life, drugs, girls, anything else you can imagine, lawless places. I go to this place a lot, I am told each time that I should not be there, nobody can help me if there are issues. When I am in SEZ's they are the most surreal places ever. You gotta come! Read this. Keep in mind, these places, won't even take credit cards at their hotels, no online presence. Last weekend, over 50 hotels, not one takes a credit card, no online presence and packed with people. This is a very different world than you know.

Obviously the city more expensive but yea I went to Antalya Turkey few months ago and it was beautiful man right on the ocean overlooking the mountains all the people were beautiful too it was like being in another dimension. Way cheaper there too people live on like 500-1000 usd a month in a nice city. America is definitely overrated I'd say.

It is rated the worst SEZ in the world, I have seen Tigers, Monkeys, Bears, every Drug you can imagine, the worst of humanity when it comes to certain things, it is unreal. It is a huge place but very hard to get into.

Golden Triangle: the world's worst special economic zone

The Golden Triangle SEZ in Laos is mired in scandal and criminality, but the silence from SEZ authorities on the matter is deafening.
