Re: Vietnam - HCM

Singapore Dollar is very popular in HCM now. You can exchange Singapore Dollars for VND easily in any part of HCM. Its not advisable to change Singapore Dollars to USD and to VND again, you will lose a lot in exchange rates.

Although many brothers still believe that night spots use USD, but in general, night spots that use USD are generally more expensive and you will lose if they convert USD to VND to foot your bill. After staying here for 2 years, i prefer to use VND in night spots, easy and direct. Brothers that are afraid of bulky VND notes can carry the new 500,000VND notes and you will just need to carry a few notes to night spots will do.
