I had emailed to those who requested for my list as stated in my signature...pls check...:)

I was told by my fren that 166 KTV at 166 Nguyen Bieu is really happening...my frens were there from 2pm...I quote my fren said "they were treated as though they are long time customers but only visited first time:)

Re: Vietnam - HCM
 

Notice that many bros here are able to speak vietnamese as compared to a few years ago. I guess Vietnamiziation of Singapore is slowly happening!!! :D

The other day at the airport when i went to fetch my BX's good friend (coz she was carrying some from my bx) i noticed there were these 2 young girls in kindergarten school uniform... waiting for their mum to come out of the plane. Didn't stay around to see the dad, but the mum looks so young... and both kids have Vietnamese names (wearing name tag).... and look rat dang yeu!!!!



Btw how is the KTV scene like in Vietnam? Similar to Singapore? Wild and XXX stuff happening in the rooms?

Re: Vietnam - HCM
 

166 Nguyen Bieu is happenin??? I find that the girls there are slightly above average but then I guess what is most important in making it a fun experience is who you go with to the KTV that is important. As for being treated like "long time customers", sorry to burst everyones bubble but that is "culture" in most of thie kind of places.

Very common sight in HCMC.
For a girl to be above 25 and un-married, considered old....dont know why.

KTV scene in HCMC especially around D1,3,5 can be boring. No wild and XXX stuff happening in there. Management wont allow it. However, if you know people that can bring you out of the "Main City" area, You will find a few. Just imaging the old "Dirty Bars / KTV" in JB back in the 80's & 90's but a bit dirtier and older looking.:eek: Wont write about my own experince because just at the mention of the name, brings nitemares!!!!!!

Re: Vietnam - HCM
 

Just to share my personal experience... I was trying to bring in my BX last month and ran in to lots of problems, and this month was successful, so here are my findings I want to share with brudders here just in case anyone trying to bring BX in.

Tigerair at Budget Terminal is a NO-NO!!!
They will surely detain the girls.. the computers at the immigrations will automatically prompt a "Go to counter" message for all the girls whom have stayed more than a couple of weeks in Singapore before. So these girls are detained in a room for up to 2 to 3 hours and they are NOT allowed to use the phones. After a long wait, a Immigration officer will attend to them. If the girls says they are here for TOUR, or to call a Carrot and carrot also say for TOUR, then surely kenna barred from entering bcos ICA idea is Singapore where got so big to TOUR, last trip stayed 1 month already TOUR more than enough liao! These girls will be held in a room with no food and no drinks and no bed and no mobile phones and money allowed. They will NOT have access to their luggage even, till next morning they will be sent back via the flight they came by. The worst thing is this... they will get the airlines to alter the return flight ticket so you cannot use it anymore, and on top of that, the Immigration will collect $300 cash from each of the girl otherwise threaten not to return them their luggage! Basically these girls already lost the entire air-ticket money, and STILL got to pay a price of a 5-star hotel and yet treated like criminal for staying 1 night at the immigration office. Remember, 1-night No food, no drinks, cannot use mobile phones even and money and wallet and bag confisicated.


Jetstar or any other airlines landing in T1 has a lot higher chance. Again at the immigration, the message will flash "Go to counter" and the girl will be asked to move to the other side. In about less than 10 minutes, an immigration officer will be seen counting money with them, and if the amount is $2,000 or more, their passport will be stamped and they can proceed to clear customs.

What i did this round is company letter, i was there personally to explain politely to the senior immigration officer about the official working trip as well, so in the end dun even need to show $2,000. The senior guy took my NRIC number, but who cares!!??

I think the method of a company letter is ok but its not a good idea to use this method to bring in any girls who end up working in Geylang because when they get into trouble, you will be in trouble as well. If they are here to visit you for a 1 week trip or less should be ok.

The Government wants to curb these illegal WL from swarming Singapore so we should not do anything to go against the Government. The girls should find their own ways in if they are coming in to work as WL. But if they are coming to visit you only and not work as WL, then take note of the above method that works.

Anh trai Reaper, I saw the kids at Changi Airport actually.

BX's friend came to Singapore to find work (that kind of work) so bx gave her something to pass to me.

The kindergarten kids' uniform looks a bit like the PAP uniform but with checkered skirt. Both with braided hair... so cute!

Re: Vietnam - HCM
 

Have to reiterate this point. If you want to be cheapo and bring her in on a Tiger Airways flight, 90% chance she will be sent back especially if she stayed in S'pore for 1 month + extend 1 month recently.

So far, I have brought ba xa into Singapore 3 out of 3 times, twice on Vietnam Airlines, once on Jetstar.
Frankly if they fly in on Vietnam Airlines, much much lower chance of being stopped at the airport in Changi.Singapore side was a breeze with VietAir.
But funnily enough, flying Vietnam Airlines to Singapore from Hanoi airport.... we got stopped by the Vietnamese Immigration Authorities. The first time, at Hanoi side, both of us were led to a side table away from the counter, and this vietnamese officer asked her questions like as if i was invisible.... then asked her if she was being taken against her will. WTF??? I instantly said "KHONG! Em ay ban gai cua toi." Then he ignored me and asked her how we communicated.... my bx told the officer that we "noi tieng trung", so officer called over another senior officer who could speak mandarin (his mandarin super bad by the way).
He spoke to us in mandarin while the other officer kept staring at me.
The senior officer asked me these questions;
"What is her birthday?"
"How many brothers and sisters"
"How old are you"
"What is her surname"
"When is your birthday"
Then he asked her exactly the same questions in vietnamese. Think they want to check that we could actually communicate, but of course since my bx very fluent in mandarin she just copied my answers in vietnamese.

After the interrogation, they let us go.

The 2nd time was pretty much the same, except no senior official called. Just 2 vietnamese speaking guys, one asking her questions, one staring at me and asking me questions in broken english.


Jetstar (from Ho Chi Minh) had some issues when we were at Singapore Customs side, the ICA officer (we purposely chose a chinese dude, not a malay/indian one) kept asking her alot of questions until she got a bit distressed and flustered. I was standing behind the yellow line, she went ahead first (we didn't go as a couple). When I saw her feeling so pressured, what I did was stepped up and gave her shoulders a squeeze, told her in front of the immigration officer "Ba xa don't worry, he is just doing his job... just let him ask his questions and do his work. Relax ok? You did nothing wrong."
Then the ICA officer turned to me, looked at her, then asked her if we came together. I told him yes, and showed him both our tickets (seated together). Then he suddenly brightened up and said "Oh, i'm so sorry... didn't mean to frighten her." He then apologized to my bx for making her so uncomfortable, then stamped her passport and attended to me.

I think they are just worried about the "solo" girls that come here by themselves because their motives are questionable. If they come to Singapore with someone in tow, no problems at all in my opinion.

Re: Vietnam - HCM
 

Hey bro, thanks for sharing such info here, I am sure it will benefit a lot of bro there and save them a lot of trouble, time and money as well.

About your point if the ICA officer realising that you came with ur BX and not that she arrive alone, ICA officer now have no rights to decide and stamp the passport anymore.. the screen of their computers will actually flash "Send to Counter" message and someone else at the counter will have to take over from there. This is accurate as of just last week. So brothers, standby company letter or S$2,000 in the wallet of BX is definitely required.

On your notes about being stopped at Hanoi airport... its much better if both of you check in seperately instead of appearing too obvious to check in as couples. In the north, many reports in the media about girls being "sold" to Taiwan and China so the authorities there frown when they see their pretty girls holding foreigner's hands. I always tells my BX in the North to say that she going for tour or visit relative if Custom in Hanoi airport should ask. If Custom suspect anything funny to do with foreigner, they could take your details and hers as well and investigate further when you and/or her return . That is bad!

Hi Brudders in HCMC... Impreza is a good guy, pls take good care of him!

Bro Impreza, i will be in Hanoi from 7th June, will meet up with you there, ok?

Re: Vietnam - HCM
 

I fully agreed with you! When i visit my Bx in Vietnam during my lastest trip(19052009 - 24052009) , i stay at her parent house. I have seen her relatives's children and all of them are girls who are around five to seven years old. Really, vietnam children especially girls are cute and adorable and playful. Wish I have one when i marry. But thing I ponder, most of children are girls , very few are boys, wonder why?:confused:

Re: Vietnam - HCM
 

I dun think there is any particular reason because their culture is similar to chinese...still prefer males...in fact population is around 52 percent males...so in your bx case just one incident...:)

Re: Vietnam - HCM
 

brudder trai, i will head home on 6th/june. guess i will catch up with u next month.....

any lobang in hanoi bo?

Re: Vietnam - HCM
 

Xin khong can cam on, toi chi muon giup moi nguoi voi nguoi yeu cua chung.

Especially when the ICA and their vietnamese counterparts are full of suspicion for con gai Viet Nam! That buon qua.

I had thought that the S$2,000 came into effect a while ago, didn't it? The incident with the ICA officer stamping her passport was on 24 Feb 2009.

Has it changed since then?
