      Believe me, most folk in that country hate communism, but the regime is not exactly communist anymore, but a totalitarian. Remember how May Flowers had to escape to America from England's bloody Mary who burned a record number of dissidents at the stake? "Commie-in-name-only" (CINO) regimes like the ccp and vcp are kinda like bloody Mary's England...they will literally torture you, imprison you, or just beat you to death the minute you try to revolt against their brutal control. They have secret police everywhere, disguised as ordinary citizens and special military forces on stand-by to crush any uprising (remember the Tiananmen Square Massacre?)

      "I don't think I understand Communism that well... or maybe they don't."
      (Yeah, it's the second more than the first. It's like in some parts of Asia where they pray to the Buddha. Completely misunderstanding the fundamentals to do what they know. Communist these days mostly just means that the ruling party keeps control and doesn't let anyone run against them in an election. They can be highly authoritarian, but also relatively stable, like a huge council of kings running the show. Because they keep people relatively happy and safe, they can continue to rule. I say it's much preferable to the constant military coups in Latin America and Africa. But it's not all bread and roses.)

      17:45 they were thinking about pushing this dude to the gas station but all of them weren't confident, since they don't know English and don't know how to tell him that they would push him to the gas station, hahaha.
      All of them know he needed gas but it's a rural area and they can only tell him to move forward. It's very uncommon for people to have extra gas unless they were some opportunistic person looking to sell gas with high price. I think he missed a gas station since the lady at 19:33 told him it's only 1 km ahead, then the lady with vege stand at 20:21 told him it's 2 km ahead.
      btw at 1:08, shady checkpoint I would say, but it's kinda reasonable since a lot of foreigners ride without license and caused accidents, just some extra careful steps since the policeman noticed some rebel thoughts in his mind hehe.

      @duyvuanh918 How do you know that the people who had motorcycle accidents are unlicensed? Are you a police officer? I highly doubt that people would dare to drive without a license, I think you have a prejudice, I think you just don't want to accept that there's no point in having a license because even if people have one, they have had accidents. If there was no requirement for a license, more people would be driving, so drivers, seeing that there were more drivers around, would slow down, and there would be fewer accidents.

      To be self employed to a level and degree this man is, takes TIME and LOADS of effort FOR FREE for a LONG time.
      To be self employed is to have NO BENEFITS regarding health, car, eyes or anything else. One medical bill can MESS YOU/or your family who you take care of financially..
      This social media stuff HURTS YOUR EGO BIG TIME. and it can become a drug that dopamine of success. However every influencer who has done this a while knows that the growth graph is ALWAYS inconsistent and after being a bit successful, you may suddenly get no growth for a year which means insufficient money

It's the law. They let you off while you were the one breaking the law. Also, some people won't understand that the complete mistranslations were not accurate. I feel like you know that, though.

The cops have every right to pull you over even if you have an IDP and a legit motorcycle license from those countries. If you reside in Vietnam for a lengthy period, then you can apply for their license.

    Many travellers do not realise there are THREE IDP's (International Driving Permits). They are no's 1926, 1949 and 1968. Dependent on which country you are visiting will determine which IDP you need. For instance, Vietnam is no.1968. For Cambodia it is no.1949 and Thailand no.1968. For instance, if you were visiting Thailand and then travelling to Cambodia you would require TWO IDP's. One for Thailand (1968) and one for Cambodia (1949). I hope this clears up any confusion.

    Dude you didn't bribe the cop and they are just enforcing the laws more now because of a bunch of people dying who had no business riding a motorbike there. I enjoy your videos but you were wrong there.

      Totally wrong as Americans didn't sign the 1968 Vienna Convention. The cops could have fined and confiscated his bike for that.

    Ok i get the whole ordeal hate that ppl from fb in Vietnam are talking about. There are many Viet in the comment section are upset abt the subtitles. But he seems to be a nice and polite guy from the interactions. The thing is abt the subtitles and the name of the vid, and things that are related to the gov and military, polices...may not be funny to them. And this guy is joking around with it and some fb sites are spreading the vid with cuts and edits ( kinda make it look bad if you don't watch the entire thing). That's all i've got to say. After watching some of his vids, i kinda envy this guy going to many foreign countries 😂

    3:31 As a Vietnamese person, I am sure that you have accidentally or intentionally mistranslated this passage. The traffic police are discussing how to communicate with you in a way that is easy to understand. I understand that Vietnamese people really like to talk to others. Even though they may not know your language, they can communicate with you using body language (they try to make you understand them). So, please don't mistranslate because it's confusing. Our enthusiasm turns into damn curses (we Vietnamese don't like this)

    Love what you do man i have been binge-watching your series, and I'm shocked at how good you are at some other languages, i know about 10 words in Spanish and that is about it. and all the bad words in Germany since my family is German those are the only words that stuck since I was a kid. keep up the great A content.
