I think they celebrate the Lunar New Year in a lot of Far Eastern countries like China, Japan and Korea, not just Vietnam. It’s fairly widespread.

I could be wrong.

Our family is very conservative and still celebrates the New year in March like they did before 1752.

Kerry is a dork.
Lunar New Year is celebrated by several of our allies as well as former enemies, not to mention a whole lot of citizens living only a few miles from my neighborhood in L.A. county.
