Out to Lunch, on Flickr. Reunification Palace, Ho Chi Minh City. January 2009. Canon Powershot G10. -- Another relic: the staff car of the President of
South Vietnam, Nguyen Van Thieu, on display in the basement of the Reunification Palace. He fled the country some 9 days before the North Vietnamese
Army took control of Saigon. With stop-overs in Taiwan and the UK, he finally settled in the USA, where he died in a Boston suburb in 2001.
 


Out to Lunch, on Flickr. Vung Tau, Vietnam. December 2009. Canon 5DMII - 1.4/50. -- Colonial residue: a Citroen 'Baby Brousse'. Citroen developed the
idea to produce cars in its former colonies without having to invest in expensive stamping machines. Hence the square look.
