Vietnam
In October 2013, I was at the war remnants museum in Ho Chi Minh City along with my MPM batch mates; and I can tell you that the images I saw there were most gruesome and bizarre in their starkness of the depiction of what happens during war.... the cruelty of man against man...there may be a victor or the vanquished in war.... but ordinary people, soldiers, commanders, all, irrespective of which country they are from, get savaged, brutalized, and butchered in the most heart-wrenching manner....and sadly it continues even today......
What also struck me was the innate resilience of a the Vietnamese people, their fight for survival, as epitomized by their creation of the underground chain of tunnels in Chu Chi province, their coming out of the human crisis in 30 years and growing into a strong economy.... I am in complete awe of this beautiful Country!
