Chuc Mung Nam Moi

Country forums / South-East Asia Mainland

To all Vietnam regulars, “Chuc Mung Nam Moi” and happy Year of the Pig. If you are in Vietnam during this time, don’t forget to do these TET things:

- An Muc
- An Banh Chung
- An Banh Tet
- An Hot Dua
- Choi Co Bac
- Drinks all you can, hangover ain’t hurt none.

I’ve got to take half a day off today to go home and help my Vietnamese wife to cook for New Year Eve – Cung Giao Thua –

Bonne Année !
Et Bonne Santé pour tous mes ami(e)s.

TK

u have fun as well. Hail to Bia Hoi!

Kuntakinte, a question I asked my Vietnamese wife and staff as well, but I have yet to receive a satisfactory answer. My wife said there is some confusion about the lunar calendar this year, I have actually seen calenders here with different dates for Tet. Maybe a leap year?

And Chuc Mung Nam Moi. It is painfull working today, too much beer yesterday, watched some very impressive fireworks, and just feel like sh*t. On top of it the guests are unhappy because the floating market is closed:-(
