Up to 10 countries of South Africa have now been barred from entering Southeast Asian countries and South Korea. As well, anyone who has recently visited or transited through these countries have been barred from entering the region. South Korea requires it's citizens who are returning from those South African countries to quarantine in a government facility upon returning to the country. With the development of the Omicron variant expect reopening plans to be possibly delayed. For Vietnam, and it's only my speculation, that the situation for a full reopening could be reasessed after the Tet or Lunar New Year holiday in the second week of February. A full reopening of Vietnam may still not be possible until June 2022. In this episode I'm walking around District 1 in Ho Chi Minh City stopping by the Reunification Palace. Thanks again for listening and your continued support!
