Jesus,
Let’s visit Cửa Đại Beach (in Hội An).
I want to know how erosion here is.
…
Wow, look at a concrete dyke system.
Well.
However we have many things to do to save our beaches.
Amen.

Missing Mekong waters rouse suspicions of China
JULY 25, 2019 / 6:17 AM / REUTERS
BAN NONG CHAN, Thailand (Reuters) – By this time of year, the Mekong River should have been rising steadily with the monsoon rains, bringing fishermen a bounty of fat fish.
Scientists and people living along the river fear the impact of the worst drought in years has been exacerbated by upstream dams raising the prospect of irreversible change on the river that supports one of Southeast Asia’s most important rice-growing regions.
Prayer 667
Jesus,
The first time I draw my eyebrows like that.
Astute.
You make my face look strange.
These eyebrows make my eyes become bigger.
My friend said my eyes like Indian eyes.
She advised me to make up like Indian women.
Interesting.
If I make up like Indian women,
you’ll end my myopia?
Phấn nụ Huế matches for Central skin.
We’ll continue play make up next time?
I love you, Jesus.
Amen.

Vietnam takes a stand in the South China Sea
AUGUST 6, 2019
After buckling in previous confrontations, Vietnam is finally facing down Chinese expansionism in its oil and gas-rich waters
Normally, Vietnam would have backed down. In July 2017 and March 2018, when China reportedly threatened military action if Vietnam did not stop oil exploration in contested areas of the South China Sea, Vietnam blinked and withdrew its vessels.
Last year, Vietnam scrapped a US$200 million oil and gas development project with Spanish energy giant Repsol situated within its own exclusive economic zone (EEZ) due to Chinese pressure. However, when a Chinese survey ship and coastguard vessels sailed last month to the contested oil-rich Vanguard Bank, which also lies well within Vietnam’s southeastern EEZ, Hanoi stood its ground.

Pure love
Dear brothers and sisters,
I love the film Pure Love (Korean: 순정; RR: Sunjeong), a 2016 South Korean romance drama film. The film talks about a pure love. I love pure love, so I love the film.
In 1991, on an island, five friends spend the summer together. Two girls and three boys. All they are 17 years old. A girl can’t walk as a normal person, so her friends often piggyback her. A boy falls in love with the girl. He piggyback her more times than other friends. Continue reading Pure love

The challenges of campaigning against wildlife trafficking in Vietnam
Mongabay – by Michael Tatarski on 1 August 2019
- “Be Their Bodhisattva,” a striking anti-wildlife trafficking campaign, was organized in Vietnam from Jan. 25 to March 25 this year.
- The campaign caught the attention of both the public and prominent national media outlets.
- However, record-breaking seizures of wildlife parts destined for Vietnam in the months since demonstrate the breadth and depth of the problem.
HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam — In late January, WildAid and the Ho Chi Minh City-based Center of Hands-on Actions and Networking for Growth and Environment (CHANGE) launched a graphic anti-wildlife trafficking campaign focused on three animals: pangolins, elephants and rhinos.
Why Is “Bisexual” Such A Charged Word In 2019?
TĐH: Gender is becoming increasingly confusing, unnatural, standardless and meaningless. In New Jersey (USA) parents now can mark in the newborn baby paperwork for birth certificate one of three choices for gender: (1) male, (2) female, and (3) undetermined. “Undetermined” because the parents “don’t know the baby’s gender until the baby is grown up and determines his/her/its gender for him/her/itself.”
Bisexual people make up 52 percent of the lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) community, but in recent years, the words to describe the identity of someone who is attracted to more than one gender have become increasingly complex.
End beauty pageants
Dear brothers and sisters,
A beauty pageant is only to focus on judging and ranking body traits of the players. So these pageants disturb societies, especially our Eastern society.
These pageants make our society focusing only on judging and ranking body traits of our women and girls.
These pageants treat women as objects. Women’s only purpose is to look sexually attractive. So these pageants keep us in the medieval era. Continue reading End beauty pageants
