Vietnam is a fun country too. I built a whole new business there starting in 1995. Today - Mr Khai (le van Khai), first man I hired out of 6000 applicants, is our country chairman - great success story & very hard working people. You from north or south. Mr Khai is from south & his wife from north. We call her the General - she does not like when Mr Khai go to huggy bar. LOL. My house in Cape Town has many Vietnam artworks in it.

Spent a lot of time in Vietnam. In the early days the staff at the Saigon Prince Hotel used to keep a special room for me. The Hotel was new then '96.

Yeah! still got over 3 million miles & lot's of hotel points. Free holidays for the rest of my life. My holiday to Thailand last year cost me $1000 spending money which goes a long way there. Local food that I love, Singha Beer - lot's of nights out with the locals - what more could a man want.
