In Chinese New Year, BELTEI Team Leader was led by H.E. Ly Chheng, a director-general of BELTEI Group, to visit Vietnam from February 3-
8, 2011. I was one of them who has been there.

In the early morning on Thursday, February 3, 2011, the team leaders started their trip at 5:30am from Phnom Penh to Svay Rieng where is located near the Cambodia-Vietnam borders. We arrived there at 3:25am, and we had breakfast at one of a restaurant for a short time, then we continued to cross the Cambodia-Vietnam border.

The two pictures were taken in the Dam Sen's Amusement Park. In that place, we were able to play many kinds of games especially we visited in the ice museum which has a lot of sculptures made by ice. I was very cold because it is -0 degree C. We took pictures at the exit way after we visited it. standing in the middle is H.E. Ly Chheng, an adviser of Ministry Council and also a Director-General of BELTEI Group. Some of them are couples because their wives accompanied with. After visiting the amusement park, we were having dinner in a restaurant in here, too. We came back to the HOANG PHU GIA HOTEL, the three stars hotel in Ho Chi Minh City with the address Tel: (84.8) 3925 2555, 3925 9341, 3925 9342, Fax: (84.8) 3925 9343, Email: info@hoangphugiahotel.com.vn, Website: www.hoangphugiahotel.com.vn, to relax one night.

In the early morning on Friday, February 4, 2011, our team leaders who were led by H.E Ly Chheng, a director-general, to Nha Trang, Vietnam to visit some famous places in there. We were spending one day from Ho Chi Minh city to Nha Trang. On the way to Nha Trang, we got a news from our relatives about Cambodia-Thailand exchange gun, missile and artillery at 4:47pm or we could say the heavy combat between two sides. All of us were thinking about results of fighting at the Preah Vihear Temple although we have known that our army have more experiences than Thai army, but we still worried about damaging of ancient temple which is 900 years old.  When we arrived Nha Trang, the bus took us to a C30-Glory Hotel, the two stars hotel with the address Tel: (84) 58 3524281, 85 3624438, Fax: 84583524283, 84978758888, Email: gloryhotelnhatrang@gmail.com, Website: gloryhotelnhatrang.com, to relax there for one night, too. I took this picture where was in front of a museum which is a France construction during the France colony in Vietnam.

In the morning after having breakfast, we went to one of pagodas in Nha Trang. This is a Vietnamese Pagoda. Most of Vietnamese people are strongly believe that this pagoda is effectiveness. Some of them said if someone doesn't have child, she will go to that place and pray to the god then they will get a child after praying a few months.

I was standing in front of the pagoda. Then I entered it and pray to the god to help my family and I to be happy and prosperity in Chinese New Year, too. After that we were on the way to a Champa Temple which was built in the Champa's King era, but now this country was invaded by Vietnam and Cambodia, and those people live as the ethnic since then.
 
This is the Cham's temple which I have above mentioned. When we arrived there, we were able to see the dancing style of Cham and listen to music of Cham and see the sculptures that are not much more beautiful than Cambodia sculptures on the Angkor Wat wall. However, it has been shown the history of human being and teach us to be careful when we disunite our country will be invade by the neighbors.
