  • @rb368370.

    IS NOT CHINA BEACH, is SOUTHEAST ASIA BEACH OR EAST VIETNAM BEACH IN VIETNAM.

  • @THETOYOTAable In VN it is called My Khe Beach and you're right it's not China beach. But you must find it interesting how names become no longer acceptable due to political reasons. The audience for this video is actually US Vietnam War veterans who will always know the beach In Da Nang as China Beach. It has nothing to do with China however and was named after a USO canteen at the end of the road at the beach.

  • you have a wonderful house. Are u pretty far from the Hyatt Regency soon to be opened?

  • @FriedxTofu Not far but not a walk either. I think that's done by the Marble Mountains. I am now living near Monkey Mountain and this house is in between very near the Han River Bridge.

  • @rb368370 Have you been back to Vietnam recently?

  • Wonderful place. I notice that a lot of fellow Disabled Veterans are considering going ex-pat to VN. to retire. How difficult is it to become a permanent resident in VN? Thanks, and again, very nice place.

  • @ShikataGaNai100 It's impossible to become a permanent resident. I am on a 5 year visa exemption but I still must leave the country every 3 months; OR get an extension. I recommend Malaysia or Lao where foreigners can own land. Viet Nam still is closed to foreigner direct ownership or residency.

  • That's not China Beach. I went to Combined Action Program School at China Beach. It was in an old French fort, very early January 1969.

  • @rb368370 .

    YES, i respect you that is not china beach but is was name china beach. thanks for loving VN.

  • great video!! spot on house, just perfect all the house is lovely

  • @rb368370 I actually would like to retire in Japan...Iriomote-jima to be precise. It is nearly impossible for someone to get Special Permanent Resident status in Japan or Korea. The best I can do is a 3-year as a graduate student, or 3 - 5 year as an English teacher.

  • Thats not China beach, mf. Thats Da Nang beach.

  • @rb368370 thanks for the reply, i`m actually considering seeking employment in vietnam. i was born in vietnam, and now an american citizen. What's your take on finding employment there and living there for a college graduate like myself?
