WHEN CAN WE TRAVEL AGAIN, WHEN WILL NORMAL BE BACK

Well, there is no stopping for most of the travelers that want to leave Singapore, however many other countries might not even allow tourists in, and at the same even if it’s allowed, it makes no sense to be quarantined for up to 14-21 days and spend a maximum of only 14 days at the destination.

With the ever-changing situation of many countries, the rules or travel bubbles may cease to exist anytime.

Traveling to Vietnam

Foreigners are not allowed in Vietnam will not grant entry visas to foreigners unless you belong to the following category:

  • Diplomatic official passports
  • investors
  • business managers
  • experts and high-skilled workers

Do note that even if you fall into any of the categories it is based on a case-by-case basis. Even if you are allowed to go in you will need to be quarantined for 21 days (previously 14), and only allowed to stay for up to 14 days.

Meaning if your allowed entry you must be prepared to stay in Vietnam for over 3 weeks or even 1.5 months.

MAN ACCUSED MILLIONAIRE FRIEND OF STEALING $50

A story was send in after two friends got into a quarrel after a $50 note went missing. Three people were on scene and the victim accuse the rich guy for stealing and committing the petty thef.

Here is the story:

I was drinking at my friend’s house along with another guy and both of them were drunk but I was still sober. I went home and left them there, the other guy was drunk and slept over at his house.

The next morning my phone was bombarded with a ton of text from the house owner claiming that $50 has gone missing from his wallet. The other guy who was at the house with me has always lived on stealing, cheating and he was always a cheapo who is poor.

My friend knew that I stayed in a bungalow and I a millionaire and have no worries for money as I am drawing a decent salary as well. Instead of blaming the other person, he blamed me for stealing $50.

I have no need to commit a crime for $50 and he refused to listen or talk to me because he believed in his low-life friend.

Sometimes, people are blind they believe who they wanna believe but never goes through a logical thought process.
