Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to Vietnamese mythology, the Vietnamese people are the offspring of a dragon and a fairy, who fell in love and had a hundred children. The dragon father then ascended to the sky, leaving behind his children and his fairy wife to rule over the land. The dragon is thus a symbol of the origin, strength, and prosperity of the Vietnamese nation. In recent times, Vietnam has also shown its rising power and potential in the region and the world. Vietnam is indeed a land of the ascending dragon, a land of opportunities and adventures for both its people and its visitors. In this book, we will take you on a journey through Vietnam’s amazing attractions and share our exciting experiences during our holiday in Vietnam. As a coastal nation, Vietnam boasts captivating seaside tourist spots that will enchant travelers of all backgrounds. Additionally, Vietnam is home to the mighty Mekong River, the longest in Southeast Asia, offering extraordinary and unique experiences in its riverside cities. Popular destinations like Banana Hills and Mount Fansipan have gained global recognition, further enhancing Vietnam's appeal to a wide range of tourists. Travelers from various countries can take advantage of Vietnam's visa-free policy, allowing them to explore the country for up to 30 days without any hassle. Moreover, the Vietnamese currency, the Dong, offers an advantageous exchange rate, making Vietnam an accessible and affordable destination for travelers from all walks of life. During our first visit to Vietnam, we encountered both unforgettable and challenging situations that resonate with any traveler. On the very first day, we nearly lost our bags containing passports, wallets, and travel money, a thrilling experience that serves as a lesson for everyone. We also fell victim to restaurant scams - not once but twice. We also almost got scammed while paying for a ride-hailing service. Furthermore, our well-intentioned actions sometimes led to unforeseen consequences, creating both humorous and frustrating situations that any traveler can relate to. Vietnam is rapidly emerging as an exciting tourist destination, offering travelers from all corners of the world unique and unforgettable experiences. With its diverse attractions, visa-free entry, and favorable exchange rates, Vietnam presents itself as an enticing choice for anyone seeking adventure and discovery. Our story serves as a reminder that despite challenges, travel experiences can be amusing, enlightening, and resonate with travelers from any background. So, pack your bags and embark on an extraordinary adventure exploring Vietnam!

Now, for the first time, Somewhere West of Lonely reveals the stories behind the camera lens in a gorgeous, intimate tour of Steve Raymer's remarkable life and reporting. Bringing together 150 photographs from countries across the globe, this incredible book reveals our world and time as it is—everyday people caught up in life-changing events; acts of resilience and corruption; and, always, lingering moments of transcendence and beauty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book on education in South-East Asia is the very first of its kind to comprehensively cover and discuss the education systems and issues in all the countries in the region - the ten member nations of the Association of South-East Asian nations (ASEAN) plus Timor Leste. The eleven chapters on country case studies are written by education country experts and give the readers an overview of each country’s education system, while also highlighting issues currently significant to each system. There are also thematic chapters on selected issues reckoned to be significant in the region such as: gender, education and development; higher education ; language policy; quality assurance; and sustainable development. This book is a significant contribution to academic literature in this field in that the South-East Asian region is, in general, one of the leading zones of the developing world, containing within it advancing economies, such as Brunei and Malaysia, and a key global hub, Singapore. Even the poorer countries are showing signs of significant advance. The region also contains the most populous Islamic country in the world, Indonesia, and examples of the educational legacies of a variety of forms of European and American colonialism. The book is therefore a source of reference to better understand education in a region where diverse religious, political and cultural aspects are found and interrelate in a form of serious co-operation.

Book excerpt: Diverse in economic development, political and mass media systems, the countries in Southeast Asia cast a unique light on the parallels between development-cum-participative communication and corporate social responsibility. In our globalized environments, knowledge of power, culture and the colonial histories that influence and shape business and governance practices are increasingly important. Focusing on six countries—Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam—the book discusses how public relations (PR) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) discourse are constructed, interpreted, communicated and enacted in this diverse emerging region. By connecting the disparate disciplines of participatory and development communication with PR and CSR discourse, this innovative text explores the tensions between concepts of modernity and traditional values and their role in engendering creativity, compliance or resistance. This book will be of interest to researchers, educators and advanced students in the fields of public relations, communication, corporate social responsibility, corporate communications and Southeast Asia studies.

Book excerpt: The “riveting” true story of the Vietnamese gang that terrorized Manhattan’s Chinatown, from the New York Times–bestselling author of The Westies (Newsday). They are children of the Vietnam War. Born and raised in the wasteland left by American bombs and napalm, these young men know a particular brand of cruelty—which they are about to export to the United States. When the Vietnamese gangs come to Chinatown, they adopt a name remembered from GI’s helmets: “Born to Kill.” And kill they do, in a frenzy of violence that shocks even the old-school Chinese gangsters who once ran Canal Street. Killing brings them turf, money, and power, but also draws the government’s eye. Even as Born to Kill reaches its height, it is marked for destruction. This story is told from the perspective of Tinh Ngo, a young gang member who eventually grows disenchanted with murder and death. When he decides to inform on his brothers to the police, he enters a shadow world far more dangerous than any gangland.

Book excerpt: Enter a world where money, muscle, and murder reign with three true crime books from the New York Times–bestselling author and Edgar Award finalist. Whitey’s Payback: In this collection of sixteen stories culled from his journalism career, author T. J. English reveals the violent world of crime with in-depth pieces on everything from old-school mobsters to corrupt federal agents—including the most feared gangster in Boston history (and secret FBI informant), James “Whitey” Bulger, who vanished for sixteen years before finally being brought to justice. “Hard-hitting reporting.” —Anthony Bruno, author of The Iceman The Westies: They were the gang even the Mafia thought twice about fighting—a gang of young, wild Irishmen led by cold-blooded Jimmy Coonan and his loyal gunman Mickey Featherstone who ruled Hell’s Kitchen with a bloody fist. Their savagery gave them power, but their quick rise would eventually lead to betrayal and their ultimate downfall in this tale of vengeance, ambition, and the last of the Irish Mob in New York. “A harrowing account of big city crime.” —Library Journal Born to Kill: This Edgar Award finalist chronicles the rise and fall of the infamous Born to Kill gang, a group of young Vietnamese men raised in the wasteland left by American bombs and napalm who came to New York’s Chinatown to make a new life, but instead brought death in their wake. Told from the perspective of one gang member who wanted more than a life of bloodshed and testified against his brethren, Born to Kill is a shocking account of the American Dream gone nightmarishly wrong. “Hard-hitting . . .torrid and fascinating.” —The Austin Chronicle

Book excerpt: Sách bản quyền miễn phí - Hỗ trợ làm luận văn Cử nhân/Thạc sĩ Truyền thông --------- "Ngành PR Việt Nam: Có cần một Hiệp hội PR?” là cuốn sách thứ 2 của tôi dùng để chia sẻ những thông tin, kiến thức bổ ích về PR sau quyển sách “Quyền năng bí ẩn: Khám phá 5 nghệ thuật tối thượng điều khiển hành vi đám đông.” Khác với quyển sách đầu tiên mang đậm tính ứng dụng bởi tiết lộ nhiều kĩ thuật PR quyền lực, nhằm giúp bạn hiểu được cách thức vận hành, điều khiển hành vi đám đông, cuốn sách thứ 2 mang đậm tính chất nghiên cứu và thời sự. - Thời sự chỗ nào? - Ở chỗ này: • Việt Nam vẫn chưa có Hiệp Hội Quan hệ Công chúng (Hiệp hội PR) trong khi các quốc gia Đông Nam Á khác như Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thái Lan, Philippine đã có các hiệp hội PR của riêng họ cách đây 40 – 50 năm. Vì sao vậy? • Lợi ích gì sẽ đạt được nếu có một quốc gia có một Hiệp hội PR? • Tại Việt Nam, ai sẽ là người hưởng lợi khi có một Hiệp hội PR? Chắc chắn là những người thực hành PR, các doanh nghiệp và cả nền kinh tế sẽ đạt được nhiều lợi ích từ nó. • Nếu tốt như thế thì tại sao đến giờ vẫn chưa có Hiệp hội PR tại Việt Nam? Cái gì đang cản trở? Trước thời điểm công trình này được công bố, vẫn chưa có lời giải thích chính thức nào cho mối quan tâm lớn này, mặc dù tôi tin rằng có nhiều người biết rõ lý do. Kết quả công bố của công trình nghiên cứu cũng chính là câu trả lời chính thức. Nội dung chính của cuốn sách này thực chất là bảng tóm tắt ngắn gọn các ý lớn được rút trích ra từ công trình nghiên cứu về thực trạng ngành PR tại Việt Nam hiện nay. Nếu cần đào sâu chi tiết, bạn nên đọc bảng gốc tiếng Anh được chia sẻ đầy đủ, miễn phí. Dù kết quả nghiên cứu sẽ không tránh khỏi những tranh luận sau khi công bố, nhưng sự thật Việt Nam vẫn chưa có Hiệp hội PR nào, và đã trễ hơn so với các nước láng giềng gần nửa thế kỷ. Và vì thông qua cuộc nghiên cứu này, những góc khuất của ngành PR đã được đưa ra ánh sáng để chúng ta cùng nhận biết, cùng đào sâu nghiên cứu thêm và cùng giải quyết. Đó là mục đích chính để công bố công trình nghiên cứu này. Và điều này đã được hoàn thành trọn vẹn. Việc công bố kết quả này là phi lợi nhuận, và nằm trong sứ mệnh của tôi là đóng góp một phần công sức cho sự phát triển lành mạnh và chuẩn mực của ngành PR tại Việt Nam. Chia sẻ cùng bạn thưởng thức!

Book excerpt: This comprehensive review of the gulag system instituted in communist Vietnam explores the three-pronged approach that was used to convert the rebellious South into a full-fledged communist country after 1975. This book attempts to retrace the path of these imprisoned people from the last months of the war to their escape from Vietnam and explores the emotions that gripped them throughout their stay in the camps. Individual reactions to the camps varied depending on philosophical, emotional and moral beliefs. This reconstruction of those years serves as a memoir for all who were incarcerated in the bamboo gulags.
