An old (71) Vietnamese gentleman I knew was divorced by his young wife and decided to go back to Việt Nam and get himself another wife. He got me to take im around to make preparations to leave. I took him to his doctor appointment to get a sctript for the latest quinine preparation and a general physical. He asked for Viagra and was provided with a script for that, too. I remonstrated with him, telling him that he was just asking for a heart attack. He said, no, no, he was healthy.
Ông Khan went to VIệt Nam and found a year young bride in Vũng Tàu who was eager to marry an American (he is a citizen). I got news a little while later that the old man had expired in the Act in Vũng Tàu. Now there is a major hassle over who gets his substantial life insurance. His progeny here are demanding that it go to them and they are arguing among themselves about which of them should get it. They all turned him out of their lives years ago and refused to deal with him at all. He was an unpleasant old man and his only friend was this American. I hope his last wife gets the money. He had changed the beneficiary to be her. That would make her a very wealthy lady in Việt Nam while his relatives here would go through it in a year and have nothing to show for it.

Interesting story. I liked Vung Tau when I was there, and I was last in Saigon in1971. I got my woman in the Philippines, however.
