Because of the severe drought which has continued this year, water rationing will go into effect on Monday. Lawns can not be watered with automatic sprinklers; driveways, porches, and decks can not be hosed down. You may water by hand, but not only on even-numbered days. Cars can be washed on Wednesday only. The city has hired a new drought patrol crew, which will be looking for offenders. If you are caught, there will be a $50 fine for the first offense and a $100 fine for the second offense. We realize that this is strict, but the drought has affected us dramatically. We ask your co-operation in conserving water.
Besides the drought rules, we ask that you be prudent in your household water use. Turn off the faucet while you brush your teeth. Take short showers; you might even consider turning off the water as you soap up. Don’t wash dishes under running water, and when you wash your clothes, save the final rinse water to begin your next load. Let’s all work together to save our community’s water.

In the old days, Vietnamese roads were seen with bicycles and a few trucks. Now they are full of a variety of vehicles. The Vietnamese carry a huge load of a variety of goods up to over one hundred kilograms, especially during the war.

Time has gone by and fewer bikes are visible in the street. In big cities, many people think that bicycles belong to the inferior classes and seem unfashionable. That is why people often find it hard – psychologically and physically – to park their bikes when going to a modern café or shopping mall.

Motorbikes are the main mode of transport in Viet Nam, with 24 million of them in a country of 87 million people in 2009, one of the highest ratios in the world. More motorbikes of all brands have dominated the road. The mobility which motorbikes provide is so crucial to workers in big cities. Some youths try to show off with expensive motorbikes of famous brands. Almost anything can be transported on a motorcycle. The loads include a basket of fruits, tree trunks, live pigs, flocks of live ducks, and stacked crates of raw eggs. Two-thirds of VietNam’s population of 85 million are under 30, and motorcycle has become the center of youth culture.

The country is more beautiful than a town and pleasanter to live in. Many people think so and go to the country for the summer holidays though they can not live there all the year round. Some have a cottage built in a village so that they can go there whenever they can find the time.
