BEWARE!!!!!

On sunday, during lunch just before my flight back Sing.

Me and my ba xa headed to Nguyen Tri Phuong in D10 for some food.
As we were crossing the road. Suddenly a motorbike dash in front of my ba xa and snatch her gold chain. It was so fast that we could not hardly react.
While that ass hole were holding the gold chain with one hand and trying to speed off on his motorbike with the other hand. He drop it before I could give him a good kick.

Can't imagine how desperate this people were. With us around they still dare to snatch in broad daylight.

By he way, one year ago. Similar incident happened. But that ass hole got away with only a $2 chain.

Beware, while you're walking along saigon streets. Avoid using your cellphone too.

bull s**t! what a shame!

I was shocked when I received the call from you bro... but you are right, better don't use your cellphone while walking along the streets... my bx always scold me when I do that and she always tell me don't think that I'm like in Singapore! In fact, nowadays I'm very careful when Walking around in HCMC... especially the period before big holidays like new year, Christmas... these are the peak periods for snatch thieves as they will grab anything to sell to celebrate the festive period..... another high crime area is Pham Ngu Lao street in D1...
