[badnolar]

5:41 is my favorite sound ever made by a human.

[acalvendia]

oh ur very funny Tony! u visit Philippines and never get a chance meeting you!

[AsianDudeX01]

Oh and stick dance hurts like a bitch if ur legs get caught lol

[AsianDudeX01]

@vietmig1 I lived there for 6 years, true the food is good, but government is shitty! That's why I moved to the US.

[Microglia1]

It seems like the more rural areas = less political freedom

[vietmig1]

I have lived in Vietnam for almost two years and this is a great video. The food is always exceptional!!!

[vietmig1]

I have lived in Vietnam for almost two years and this is a great video.

[dramapopcorn]

rofl nice ending! to much rice alcohol

[babybleuroses]

I'm Vietnamese, but I always thought these citizens were considered hmong or something? Since the culture seems a bit different?

[GDQT]

@babybleuroses yes, you're right. Vietnam has 54 ethic groups, so it is a multicultural country

[inotiram]

LET THE MADNESS BEGIN

[kaisersozen]

If anyone care for translation into drunk English:

5:02 "Me drunk? What do you mean drunk? I'll be damned if you say that!"

5:10 "You say that not pleasing for me! You? Only your wife (in a friendly sense ;) )"

5:16 "Skippa doo skippa yee"

5:20 "Yay, four, three, four"

5:30 "Okay! That's fine! Hike!"

5:35 "No big deal!"

5:40 "$@%#($%*@$%" (This is normally a 5 minute warming to yakking, but this guy is not a Chairman for nothing)

5:50 "Cable TV, over there! Bazayyya"

5:54 "You wear hoooody!"

[kkbui33]

@kaisersozen 5:54 He really said in Vietnamese, "You wear hoooody!" LOL

[willowstar101]

i remember learning how to do the sticks dance in girl guides. my ankles hurt so much after

[tswjxeem]

bad editing....on the offering of beer to the "people rep" the bottle of beers on the table go from 5 to 3 to 5 etc etc....

[Chaucer129]

lol "Damn Skippy"....

[TheKoreanMV]

Anthony is funny; translation - let's the Madness begin ! Hahahaha

[ToadsMGodes]

I think the government man was nervous about being on TV

[noclouds111]

@ToadsMGodes I agree...and I think that everyone present was afraid to upset the govt guy.

[TheMockmade]

Oh my god Mai Châu!

This was the best place I've ever seen in Vietnam. I was there in February 2010 and there were just 3(!) other tourists visiting the little village in the north. If anyone ever goes to Vietnam and wants to see something real - this is the place to go. I so love Anthony for showing this. Now I wanna go straight back to this lovely country.

[AlexCyrus]

@5:23 continue: he said something to the affect of "I am going all out now"

@5:54 "TV show to Vietnam, OMG" and he uses some local expression I am not familiar with.

@6:36 "I just bottom upped" implying Tony is a cheater, lol also a common way to start a drunken fight in VN.

Full disclosure: I came here at the age of 9 from south vietnam, but I have traveled most parts of the country during my college years. I understand the dialects, but not the local expressions so the meanings may not beright

[AlexCyrus]

@4:49 "You said . . . beat to death" a common threat in vietnam lol

@5:04 "He may be drunk . . .you said . . .beat to death" = He may be drunk, but if you tell him he is drunk, he will kick your ass. Drunken fight is common in vietnam for this reason.

@5:12 "You can't say shit like that" and then some shit about only girl can do that shit; here he uses "uncle" and "aunt" as a polite way of saying guy and girl.

@5:23 'four, three, four" he counts the drinks or something

[bmwtypr]

ROFL at the government guy..."why so serious?" hahah

[limpidd]

LMAO the tour guide Lin (? idk how to spell his name) when he's dancing he's awesome ahhaa.

[fasteddy60]

Im going back in Feb,2011,the food is one of my main loves of Vietnam! So good!

[agenthelios1]

does anyone know what the Chairman was saying in his rantings 4:22 - 6:25

I am very interested in the translation to english.

[kankasixxx]

LOL I'm Vietnamese and at one point the chairman said he keeps talking he die

[hiddenstar23]

That sinister commie looks and sounds creepy....Tony Bourdain is one brave man.

[fancullo]

alcohol breaks the dude

[gnawaserge]

and between 7:38-7:55 what is this music?? anyone know?? what its called?? its awesome . make me wanna danceand is this why vietnamese kids in California gravitate easier to hip hop than rock??? LOL im serious though

[gnawaserge]

6:09 chairman party pooper is drunk and wants something. he looks like a little kid asking for his bottle.. LOL what does e want?? any vietnamese wanna help out and contribute more translations

[killsmash540]

@gnawaserge I can't really understand him, He's way to drunk to understand lol

[tungchankiet]

[hiennguyenvinh]

Holy shit,that chairman is fucked up.he's talking shit at 6:08 "something with cable TV" llol

5:05"being drunk is just like being drunk,stop talking trash or ill beat you to death" and i cant understand the rest lol

[gnawaserge]

@hiennguyenvinh thanks i always wanted to know what he was saying.. O my gosh so funny. he turned out the friendliest once he was all drunk. no wonder everyone else was serious

[agenthelios1]

@hiennguyenvinh Hello, I know you translated some but can you tell me what the Chairman says in his rantings 4:22 - 6:25

I am very interested in the translation to english thanks!

[169Phoenix]

@agenthelios1 Hes just saying something about been drunk and telling Tony to drink more i cant really make it out

[hangv001]

@agenthelios1 he's really drunk, he's ranting about "aunt, uncle, cup,...." basically very drunk, very gibberish. Plus, he's from the north, so his accent is hard for me to understand

[agenthelios1]

@hangv001 Thanks for the attempt to translate. I have a vietnamese friend whose mother is from Vietnam and she could not understand it well.

If ANYONE has a translation for 4:22-6:25 let me know.

[169Phoenix]

LOL the chairman was off hes head LMAO and im Vietnamese and i understand what he said but when he was drunk he was just blabbing

[linafelina]

loool so funny when it went silent then the chairman laughed and everyone laughed like they need his permission to have fun

[greenhippo90]

I want to go party there with that chairman guy.

[emijoti]

That rice vodka is the bomb!! --- Tony is always drinking .... and eating. He's got the best job ever. Drinking on the job... lol ... :)

[zzzthaoster]

[acf870]

[Atonil]

I love anthony I never did like the fat guy hes rude

[littlemsemily]

[longnguyen92683]

this is a wrong to promote vietnam tourism, bunches of drunkers and uncomfortable faces, get a sniper and shoot that central governor, he is destroying the atmosphere,horrandous, unacceptable, geez

[yeastori]

Jack Daniels ain't got nothing on the Vietnamese Rice Wine, hell its not even wine its straight up liquor

[YeuLaKho]

@yeastori

that rice wine is very strong.... and it's homebrew.

[keichan22]

if that chairman is seeking for tourist on their country, oh i very sorry for vietnam.. no one will ever come.. hes so scary yellow eyes.. i think his sick coz of drinking alchol

[dogstyle2222]

"hey what's making all that noise" " it's the American" lol I bursted out laughig

[Elbottoo]

Government guys eye is yellow. He may be suffering from Jaundice, a condition that he got because he is suffering from hepatitis.

[DogsonlyGOD]

"Fred muthafukin astaire biatch!"

[Jlierchen]

Why y'all making such shitty comments about the communist party dude? he is just being a host in his own way... treating tony to free drinks, food and great entertainment.

[ichimadasan]

bwahahaha hilarious!

[kunia74]

what the hell dude that 'central government' or whatever they called him seemed like he was about to send a couple of people to kill tony of something mafia style XD

[astroboy421]

lol it's the amercian

[MissNPham]

LOOOOOOOOLLLL he's not very funny is he hahhahahaha

[quysweat]

No matter how fucked up they are... these goverment commies are scared of white people. They are scared of the press. They kiss ass to white people.

[khoihq]

that's rice vodka is :Rượu Bàu Đá"...and the alcohol content is....over 60%...rocket fuel indeed

[shoaib189]

Must stay relatively sober!......Must get mr party pants drunk......hahahahahah, bourdain is hilarious!

[tvnguyen1976]

central government dude is an alcohol, i could tell.He's only happy when he's drunk.

[namnhan2003]

He always after a free meal...that commi pig...and slitty eyes just like them, too...

[namnhan2003]

And when alcohol is drunk, he sang like VEM...such a despicable, ugly, dirty, lowly man.

[09tranm]

LOL!!!! I like the music they make the central government guy look like a villain.

[jdub00776]

Asian Foods is The BEST...!!

[blepblep1]

those girls are singing/dancing beautifully

[thelittlehero]

OMG I can't stop laughing!

[pvd021]

That guy is a typical government prick. In case you didn't know, he's talking massive amounts of shit - literally. Typical corrupt government asshole. Bourdain is lucky he's white, otherwise for us expatriot, we'd be paying off a bribe or fine.

[blepblep1]

please translate for us!!!

[giactaudoban]

Yah....damn these commie government pricks ! They think they are kings ! They suck the country dry.

[anythingnew]

Yeah, Socialism looks good on paper, but it just don't work. America's system is good, but I feel it is straying from what it was. And no one's doing anything about it.

[tribalfish]

JackEffenBauer it's called TINIKLING and it's very entertaining for real.....

[JackEffenBauer]

the pole dance reminds me of the bamboo dance when I went to a filipino organization culture show.

[chadsexinton]

that government guy looks pretty serious.

[khoihq]

coz he's the big shot in town...all the residents are probably afraid of him. that's pretty common

[7thandParamount]

Terrific television.

[CosimaMuija]

Fred-motherfuckin'-Astair, bitch!

LMAO

[subroto81]

[Zeitgeist74]

"What do these handsome gentlemen think?" LMFAO Tony's awesome! lol

[mengie87]

this has got to be the funniest no reservations segment ever

[noclouds111]

@mengie87 I was happy to find this "funniest episode". "Fred MF'ing Astaire!!"

[VALERWHEEEXD]

rofl, Anthony's sarcasism.

[cheesechaser]

Haha...I had to do the pole dance in front of like 70 people while drunk in Vietnam. I made an ass of myself, too.

[vittorioaja]

yeah fuck you stupid faggots saying that those village people are communist. as any vietnamese would tell you, or uh, THE VIDEO ITSELF, these particular people always cause problems for the commies by helping the CIA

[NafeesLACC]

lmao rotfl, that government official is hilarious, absolutely hilarious.

[longdoydoy]

Tony was absolutely hilarious!!

[lucirz]

lmao

[manelli79]

[bubblez70301]

[yoshigtywo]

[lunargoddess2002]

Motherfuckin' Fred Astaire bitches! lmao

[EdOoi]

rice whiskey.. that tasted like 60% alcohol.. burned the shit outta your throat

[crimsonrose]

loler

[KenWritez]

Hey, remember--Tony had to do the pole dance when he was hammered! He did good for a drunk old white man. lol...

[AverageCamino]

Drunken commies = good TV

[qntqnt]

fucking communist son of a bitch.

motherfuckker.

the fucking govermnent in vietnam are communist.

especially in north.

stay away from that hellhole.

[Acapella56]

Yea, harsh language but they do deserve it.

[mongchau9]

Go to South Viet Nam Tony if you haven't already! They have YUMMY food and lots of seafood! :)

[anhzor]

remind me so much of home, god i miss it.

[Valholm]

HAHA, Bourdain freaked out1

[thebbeast2012]

what a suck up

[y4n3r5]

OMG Committee guy is hilarious!!

[void212]

lmao.. i love that comittee guy when he's drunk.

[gadjee]

so funny

[KoolKay83]

The governor reminds me of the drunkin' guy I see on the bus all the time LOL

[Valholm]

lOL

[TheGoomba]

I wasn't aware that they did Tinikling (the bamboo stick dancing) in Vietnam too. learn something new everyday

[Acapella56]

Yea, when I saw Filipino ppl doing it too I was like wow I didn't know they "nhay sap"

[EvilChoda666]

Are these people communists or no?

[mTUs]

no, they keep to themselves for the most part... kind of like the native American before

[Acapella56]

The highland ppl of Vietnam are one of the most oppressed because the central government keep taking their lands. Hence, they protest and are opposed to the VN communist government. The video also states this point.

As you can see, the people are very scared by these officials and they have to cook and put on a show for them. But that's how it is in a communist government especially in north VN.

[wazabi99]

I know. Look at those commies corrupt lazy ass. Useless fuckers.

[Keahaulanismith]

Yay Hes freaking trashed LOL

[lucirz]

what he doesnt know is that vietnamese people can drink well lol...if you are talking about those old men, it takes alot to get one of them drunk

[Ttran778]

Shit yes those old vietnamese men can drink! All they DO is drink and argue about the war!

[Keahaulanismith]

LOL I Love the part where Tony tries to break the Ice and offer the upset guy a beer LOL its too funny and then the scary music he cracks me up

[sexydecayed69]

Tooo cool and I loved the pole dancing segment.

The rice4 steamed in the bamboo I wanna try,that looked very good but wihtout the drinks lol.

[jasisrad]

"Fred Motherf**kin Astaire...beeotch"

Oh my god, that line freakin' killed me!

[shinimika]

hahaha, the subtitles at the end is made up, he didn't actually said that.

[eviable]

that was too funny..

[Creamtangerine]

LOL this is one of my favorite episodes! He is so drunk the Fred Astaire line kills me!

[Promovisual]

that was the most unusual strange unprodictable vietnamis guy with the tie.. if i was there i sure would be scare thinking what if his the ones with the gun who live in the vietnam jungle. very strange its like the guy has alot of hate amond the show. that is wierd but unusual and yet very interesting part.

[myviewz]

He was just shy at first. His mission was to put the town on the tourist map. Tony twisted it a bit to make it more interesting.

When the chairman was drunk, he basically said something like this - Cable TV to New York (implying that more American tourists would know about his town).
