Venezuela is yet again ranked the world’s most miserable country. For two years running, it has topped the Misery Index, a figure computed on inflation, growth, interest rates and unemployment.

I know little about finance and I certainly don’t want to play expert on a topic that I am not very familiar with just for the sake of defending my country.

THE WORLD AT YOUR FINGERTIPS

A wall mural depicts beloved late songwriter Trinh Cong Son. Once called the Bob Dylan of Vietnam by renowned folk singer Joan Baez, Trinh Cong Son penned more than 600 songs during his career. One of his biggest hits, April 20, 2016, a man walks on a beach that was previously filled with swarms of millions of dead fish in Quang Trach, a district of central Vietnam coastal province of Quang Binh. The government has given scarce information as well as little action in response and stated that there is no evidence Taiwanese corporation Formosa's (lack of) waste treatment in Ha Tinh is the cause. The newly-elected government is walking on a thin line between handling public outrage and maintaining attractive investing opportunities for foreign businesses. There are intense protests drawing millions of participants appealing to international powers for investigation including the US government, while VN government exerts more effort on suppressing and intimidating outspoken social media and protestors. Meanwhile, this crisis will continue to hurt central coastal fishermen who rely largely on sea resources, putting them out of work and leading to a ban on the region's seafood sales. #deadfishcrisis #quangtrach #formosa #environmentalcrisis #pollution #savethesea #erinbrockovich #usvietnam #protests #vietnamsfishermen #savethefishermen A man is practicing tai chi against a backdrop of the Bitexco Tower in Ho Chi Minh City. 68-story Bitexco Tower relinquished from No.1 among Vietnam's tallest buildings in 2011 after holding the title for 2 years. Bitexco Tower is figuratively refered to by locals as Lotus Tower (due to the half-height Helicopter Deck splitting the structure into a petal-like form). The Tower is important to economic development of the district. Bitexco Tower is among the modern and impressive architecture in Ho Chi Minh City. Vietnam's largest city and once Southest Asia center of trade and commerce (nickednamed Pearl of the East Sea), which title now belongs to Singapore, is also home to many French colonial architecture, such as the Notre-Dame Basílica and the Saigon Opera (modeled after Opéra Garnier in Paris), among many other schools and buildings. #bitexco #lotustower #bitexcotower #bitexcofinancialtower #Saigon #hochiminhcity #frencharchitecture #operagarnier #notredamebasilica A fisherwoman in straw-hat (nón lá) is making the best of some little spare time to enjoy a popular comodity - instant ramen - as sun rises, signaling the start of another busy day in Halong Bay. Ha Long Bay (above), which was nominated for the New Seven World Wonders, is a globally-desired destination. Vietnam is home to many breath-taking natural sceneries, mostly thanks to geographical advantages of being the coastal border of the Indochina peninsula. A domination of limestone in the geological formation gives rise to magnificent natural structures such as Son Doong Cave (world largest limestone cave system), and UNESCO natural heritage Phong Nha Cave. Gifted with natural resources, Vietnam's agriculture scene is also prominent with the world's largest export in cashew nuts and second largest export of rice and coffee. As peaceful as it seems here in the northern part of East Sea, conflicts and violence are plaguing the southern East Sea between Vietnam, China, the Philippines, Indonesia and even Thailand, resulting in civilian fishing ships assault and tensed arms race. #halongbay #sondoong #sondoongcave #phongnha #phongnhacave #instantramen #nonla #strawhat #eastsea #southchinasea #limestone #limestonecave #unescoheritage #conflicts This picture of Muhammad Ali was taken in May 1994 when he visited a Hanoi boxing club. Mr. Thuc, then-president of the club keeps this picture among his most valuables. Muhammad Ali periodically visited the country where he was put behind bars for absolutely refusing US army call to war in 1967. The news of the boxing legend's passing was met with grief in Vietnam. Candles are lit and flowers are on display on street corners and in the front of buildings in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City to remember his monumental impact on peace. #muhammadali #muhammadaliinvietnam #classiusclay #boxinglegend #ali #vietnamwar #peace #boxingchampion #ripali During Duy's volunteer trip with his school to Tra Vinh on international children day, Duy met a kid who is waiting for the sight of dad's motorbike so the boy can be allowed to receive his gifts. The boy is anxious because daddy has been taking a while to come from home to the event location. Tra Vinh is a southern province in the Mekong Delta where the majority of the transportation system are small dirt-roads cutting through vast far-stretching rice plains, hence the iconic proverb During his recent trip to Vietnam this May, president Obama did not forget to enjoy the notoriously delicious bún chả in a specialty plebeian Hanoi foodshop. Vietnamese cuisine has been long popular for its unique taste with influences from Indian-Chinese and French cuisine. Beside the trendy phở, there is a huge selection from the favorite traditional sticky-rice found on the ancient streets of old Hanoi citadel to the ever-changing trends of delicious ready-made Saigon street snacks. Vietnamese food is best enjoyed on a low plastic stool, preferably in a small streetside shop, with large company of friends. #buncha #xoiyen #snaildishes #banhbeo #banhxeo #banhmi #banhkhot #banhcuon #banhtrangtron #obamainvietnam The Temple of Literature at Hanoi resembles the Guozijian in Beijing, and was an Imperial College and taught the philosophy of Confucius since its introduction in 1070. The Temple of Literature has been the first and only national university for six centuries until 1800 when the Nguyen dynasty moved the monarch's capital to Hue, central Vietnam. The tradition was replaced by Western education system in the French colonization. These steles of stone turtles show the engraved names of graduates and only 82 steles stand the test of time today. Tet festival (also known as Lunar New Year) at the Temple of Literature, Hanoi is when calligraphists see the most number of customers coming to ask for good wishes, which are considered art works and given to folks for free. #templeofliterature #hanoi #bluestonestelae #confucius #guozijian #imperialcollege #calligraphy #tet
